Why continuous heart rate monitoring?

Heart rate refers to the number of heart beats per minute in a normal person’s resting state, also known as resting heart rate, generally 60 to 100 beats per minute. However, each person’s heart rate is related to age, gender, occupation, and physical health. Generally speaking, the younger the age, the faster the heart rate. The heart rate of the elderly is slower than that of the young, and the heart rate of women is faster than that of men at the same age.

Heart rate can reflect some health information and heart health status of the human body. such as:

1. The heart rate is too fast

An adult resting heart rate over 100 beats per minute is called sinus tachycardia. For example, after our body is excited, smoking, drinking, and drinking coffee, it is very likely that the heart rate will be too fast. There are some common diseases that can cause the heart rate to increase, such as fever, shock, hyperthyroidism, heart failure, myocardial infarction, etc., or after taking certain drugs.

2, slow heart rate

An adult resting heart rate of less than 60 beats per minute is called sinus bradycardia. This situation generally occurs in healthy people and athletes who have been engaged in physical labor for a long time. If they do not belong to these occupations and experience bradycardia, it is necessary to consider whether to take certain drugs or develop certain diseases, such as cerebral hemorrhage, meninges brain diseases such as inflammation, or diseases such as peptic ulcers, intestinal infarction, gallstones, and even malnutrition, infectious diseases and other diseases may cause bradycardia.

If the heart rate is lower than 40 beats/min, it may lead to insufficient blood oxygen supply, causing the body to experience fatigue, dizziness, and difficulty breathing.

In addition, the blood pressure value of the human body can be calculated through the heart rate data, and the heart rate variability (HRV) of the human body can also be analyzed and calculated. This indicator is essentially the change of the heart rate over time. Through HRV, we can Know your level of fatigue, sleep quality, and even how long it takes to recover from exercise.

Because heart rate variability and heart disease are closely related, heart rate is the most direct indicator of our heart health. The heart is the driving force for blood pumping, and it is also the guarantee for the normal operation of various organ systems and the entire body. According to the statistics of the World Health Organization, the mortality rate of cardiovascular disease remains high and shows a younger trend. Many people often have insufficient understanding of heart disease, thinking that only sudden death and stroke are sudden diseases, so they always choose to seek medical advice when they cannot bear it. After arriving at the hospital, some patients experienced registration, queuing, waiting, and finally when they arrived at the ECG examination, the heart that was originally uncomfortable suddenly became obedient, and the ECG results were not abnormal, it can also easily lead doctors to make “wrong” medical diagnoses. Therefore, whether it is for office workers or middle-aged and elderly people, real-time monitoring of heart rate is very necessary. Through continuous and accurate heart rate monitoring and analysis, abnormal data of cardiac activity can be detected in time, and precious treatment time can be obtained for patients.

Plus1Health has a sleep recorder, which can continuously monitor for a long time, monitor heart rate and breathing rate, and automatically generate sleep reports and analysis.
