I had analyzed HRV metrics in critically ill patients. My records lasts between 20 to 60 minutes (median 40 min). I read that in 5-minutes epochs analysis, the 1996 Task Force recommends using absolute values and normalized LF and HF.

My question is: in longer records, where VLF might have a physiological sense, could be also useful to normalized its units and obtain??

- VLFnu=VLF/TP

- LFnu=LF/TP

- HFnu=HF/TP
