Abstract
•Research on training scenarios in law enforcement officers (LEOs) has previously focused on officer performance (decision making, accuracy, etc.) rather than the physiological demand of the activity (2).
•Active shooter training is designed to prepare officers to respond to various scenarios in which they receive reports of an armed suspect.
• This course is required to be completed, at minimum, every five years for incumbent officers and before academy graduation for recruits in this municipality.
•Heart rate variability (HRV) has often been used as an indicator of physiological stress in tactical populations (3).
•Higher HRV is used as an indicator of “readiness”, though there has
been debate as to what cutoff point constitutes a high HRV.
