What is normalized HRV score (x10)?

Normalized HRV score (×10) is a scaled HRV metric that maps raw HRV values onto a standardized reference range, multiplied by 10 for resolution. It is used by consumer health platforms to present HRV data in a user-friendly numerical format.

What is ln(RMSSD) proxy score?

The natural logarithm of RMSSD is a derived HRV metric that normalizes the skewed distribution of raw RMSSD values. It provides a more statistically linear scale for comparing HRV across populations and monitoring physiological trends over time.

Worked examples

1 normalized HRV score (x10) = 0.5 ln(RMSSD) proxy score

1 ln(RMSSD) proxy score = 20 RMSSD
