Abstract
While ample evidence suggests heart rate control is nonlinear, controversies abound as to whether or not heart rate dynamics involve deterministic chaos. Our analysis, based on the method developed, suggests that heart rate variability can be characterized by bounded random processes and the degree of boundedness becomes tighter with disease conditions such as myocardial infarction.
