Abstract :

Diabetes mellitus(DM) is the most common endocrine and metabolic disorder found in the humans. DM occurs throughout the world, which is a major burden for health care facilities in all countries. This study is to find out the autonomic dysfunction in type 2 diabetes mellitus by spectral analysis of heart rate variability and compare HRV between type 2 diabetes and normal volunteers. Time domain measures of HRV showed significant parasympathetic impairment in cases as compared to controls. Parasympathetic modulation is decreased in cases. These patients are prone to develop cardiovascular complications like arrhythmias and atrial fiillations. This finding is significant in risk prevention
