Vagal tone refers to the level of activity of the vagus nerve, which influences heart rate, digestion, and respiratory rate through parasympathetic control. High vagal tone is associated with better cardiovascular health and resilience to stress, while low vagal tone can indicate autonomic dysfunction and is linked to conditions like anxiety and heart disease. Monitoring vagal tone can provide insights into a patient's autonomic balance and overall health status.
