  2. Heart rate monitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_rate_monitor

    A heart rate monitor (HRM) is a personal monitoring device that allows one to measure/display heart rate in real time or record the heart rate for later study. It is largely used to gather heart rate data while performing various types of physical exercise. Measuring electrical heart information is referred to as electrocardiography (ECG or EKG).

  3. Cardiac monitoring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_monitoring

    Cardiac monitoring generally refers to continuous or intermittent monitoring of heart activity to assess a patient's condition relative to their cardiac rhythm.Cardiac monitoring is usually carried out using electrocardiography, which is a noninvasive process that records the heart's electrical activity and displays it in an electrocardiogram.

    Its founder Seppo Säynäjäkangas (1942–2018) was the inventor of the first wireless EKG heart rate monitor. [3] In 1978, the company launched its first commercial product, the Tunturi Pulser. In 1982, Polar launched the world's first wearable wire-free heart rate monitor, the Sport Tester PE 2000. [4] [5] [6]

    A rate sensor is a sensor that measures a rate (or rate of change). It may refer to: Angular rate sensor. Rate gyro; Yaw-rate sensor; Heart rate sensor; Breath rate sensor; Oxygen transmission rate sensors; Moisture vapor transmission rate sensors

  7. Holter monitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holter_monitor

    Each Holter system has hardware (called monitor or recorder) for recording the signal, and software for review and analysis of the record. There may be a "patient button" on the front that the patient can press at specific instants such as feeling/being sick, going to bed, taking pills, marking an event of symptoms which is then documented in the symptoms diary, etc.; this records a mark that ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tricuspid_valve

    The tricuspid valve, or right atrioventricular valve, is on the right dorsal side of the mammalian heart, at the superior portion of the right ventricle.The function of the valve is to allow blood to flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle during diastole, and to close to prevent backflow (regurgitation) from the right ventricle into the right atrium during right ventricular ...
