The study showed
significant difference in parasympathetic activity between
patients with BPD and healthy controls through
differences in RSA.31 Ebner - Priemer et al recorded 24 hours ECG signals on 50
patients with BPD and 50 healthy controls.32 HRV was calculated
for the period at night at which the average HR was lowest; the results from the study tested the hypothesis that HRV is lower in BPD.
Furthermore, a study investigating parasympathetic and sympathetic activity through the use of RSA in 12
patients with BPD and 28 healthy controls had ECG recorded
for three 5 min stages (at rest or stressed) found BPD was associated with lower values of RSA suggesting increased levels of sympathetic activity and decreased levels of parasympathetic activity.33 Meyer et al recorded 5 min ECG signals on 27 participants with BPD, 23 in remission from BPD, 18 suffering from PTSD and 23 healthy controls.34
Significant differences were only found between PTSD participants and controls; however, BPD participants had reduced variability across linear time and frequency domain measures compared with controls.
