Ultradian cardiac rhthms in surgical intensive care unit patients

DM Wilson, DF Kripke, DK McClure and AG Greenburg

Several reports have suggested that heart rate may be regulated by an ultradian biological rhythm with a period of about 90--100 min. Blood pressure and heart rate were collected from 10 Surgical Intensive Care patients at 5-min intervals and analyzed by computer. No 90-min rhthms were found, indicating this rhythm has no significant influence on heart rate or blood pressure in postsurgical patients.
