Abstract
A diabetic patient with parasympathetic neuropathy underwent 24-h ECG monitoring. During the 24 hours the patient had a hypoglycaemic event. Heart rate variability was greatly increased during this time, though heart rate was unaltered. The reasons for the sudden increase are unknown but may indicate a fruitful line for further research.Keywords
