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. Electrocardiography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrocardiography

   Electrocardiography is the process of producing an electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG [a]), a recording of the heart's electrical activity through repeated cardiac cycles. [4] It is an electrogram of the heart which is a graph of voltage versus time of the electrical activity of the heart [ 5 ] using electrodes placed on the skin.

4. Cardiology diagnostic tests and procedures - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiology_diagnostic...

   A fairly accurate estimate of the target heart rate, based on extensive clinical research, can be estimated by the formula 220 beats per minute minus patient's age. This linear relation is accurate up to about age 30, after which it mildly underestimates typical maximum attainable heart rates achievable by healthy individuals.

5. Cardiac monitoring - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_monitoring

   Monitoring of the heart rate can be performed as part of electrocardiography, but it can also be measured conveniently with specific heart rate monitors. Such heart rate monitors are largely used by performers of various types of physical exercise. A generic cardiac monitor has the following functions: A display of heart rate and heart rhythm

6. Electrophysiological techniques for clinical diagnosis

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrophysiological...

   EKGs can be ordered as a one-time test, or can be continuously monitored in the case of patients wearing a holter monitor and/or admitted to a telemetry unit. EKGs provide information about heart rate, heart rhythms and provide some data on underlying myocardium, valves and coronary vessels.

7. Pulse watch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse_Watch

   Wearable technologies that monitor heart rate has interested users for a very long time. [14] In addition to the pulse watch which monitors heart rate from pulse detection at the wrist. There are also devices which use similar technologies to monitor heart rate from the ear, forearm and chest, using a chest strap. [ 2 ]

8. Automated ECG interpretation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_ECG_interpretation

   Automated ECG interpretation is the use of artificial intelligence and pattern recognition software and knowledge bases to carry out automatically the interpretation, test reporting, and computer-aided diagnosis of electrocardiogram tracings obtained usually from a patient.

9. Implantable loop recorder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implantable_loop_recorder

   record heart electrical activity An implantable loop recorder ( ILR ), also known as an insertable cardiac monitor ( ICM ), is a small device that is implanted under the skin of the chest for cardiac monitoring , to record the heart's electrical activity for an extended period.
