function [TO, TS,nPVCs] = Eval_HRT(RRInts, tRRInts, Labels, sqi, HRVparams, WindIdxs)
% [TO, TSn, PVCs] = Eval_HRT(RRInts,Labels, HRVparams, WindIdxs)
% OVERVIEW:
% This function return TO and TS, i.e., the basic parameters of
% heart rate turbulence (HRT) used to quantify the return to
% equilibrium of heart rate after a premature ventricular
% contraction (PVC) for each window
%
% INPUTS:
% RRInts : Vector containing RR intervals data (in seconds)
% tRRInts :
% Labels : Vector containing annotations of the RR data at
% each point indicating the type of the beat (see
% https://www.physionet.org/physiobank/annotations.shtml)
% sqi :
% HRVparams :
% WindIdxs :
%
% OUTPUTS:
% TO : average turbulence onset (TO)
% TS : turbulence slop (TS) of the average tachogram
% nPVCs : numer of PVCs used to build the average tachogram and
% compute the mean TO
