Accuracy of Commercially Available Heart Rate Monitors in Cardiac Rehabilitation Patients: A Prospective, Randomized Study
The objective of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of four heart rate monitors in
cardiac rehabilitation patients during typical, supervised cardiac rehabilitation involving
exercise on a treadmill and/or stationary bicycle.
cardiac rehabilitation patients during typical, supervised cardiac rehabilitation involving
exercise on a treadmill and/or stationary bicycle.
This study will assess the accuracy of four of the best-selling optical heart rate monitors
when worn by cardiac rehabilitation patients.
During testing, each subject will wear:
1. Two different optical heart rate monitors (one on each wrist)
2. A Polar chest-strap based monitor
3. ECG leads
The types of wrist-worn heart rate monitors assigned to each subject will be randomly
assigned.
The location (left or right wrist) will also be randomly assigned.
Heart rate will be assessed using each of the 4 monitors with the subject on the exercise
machines under each of the following conditions:
1. Pre-exercise
2. Treadmill: at 3, 5 and 7 min.
3. Stationary Cycle: at 3, 5 and 7 min.
