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

   In a normal heart, the heart rate is the rate at which the sinoatrial node depolarizes since it is the source of depolarization of the heart. Heart rate, like other vital signs such as blood pressure and respiratory rate, change with age. In adults, a normal heart rate is between 60 and 100 bpm (normocardic), whereas it is higher in children. [56]

4. Cardiology diagnostic tests and procedures - Wikipedia

   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 ]
