− | + | There are many '''tools that measure and record heart rate''', aka pulse, either continuously, during an exercise session or periodically throughout the day. There are lots<ref>https://iotool.io/extensions/sensors/heart-rate-bluetooth-low-energy-4-0-sensors-1</ref> and lots<ref>https://forum.quantifiedself.com/t/reliable-wearable-ecg/2653</ref><ref>https://vandrico.com/wearables/device-categories/components/heart-rate-monitor.html</ref> of such devices and so not all have been evaluated. | |

Most smartwatches and fitness trackers that are worn as wrist-bands provide heart rate data in one form or another. Virtually all of them do so through Pulse Oximetry and try to avoid measurement artifacts through the use of accelerometer data. Cheap devices might actually not be able to reliably read heart rate from the pulse oximetry and rather "make up" heart rate "readings" solely based on the amount of movement as measured by the accelerometer.

There are devices that also use pulse oximetry but are worn on a finger, rather than on the wrist, in this sense they are similar to medical devices that use pulse oximetry. | There are devices that also use pulse oximetry but are worn on a finger, rather than on the wrist, in this sense they are similar to medical devices that use pulse oximetry. | ||

These devices make us of [[Electrocardiogram|electrocardiograms]] and are based on electrical pulses. Some devices are designed to only record spot-measurements, while others are designed to collect longitudinal data. For these latter to work they have to be temporarily glued on to a patch of skin, typically on the chest. | These devices make us of [[Electrocardiogram|electrocardiograms]] and are based on electrical pulses.

Similar to the few-lead ECG patches above but these are typically tested medical devices that are used for long-term ECGs where the device is worn for up to 1-2 weeks. They are expensive and very bulky and less accessible for individuals outside the healthcare system. | Similar to the few-lead ECG patches above but these are typically tested medical devices that are used for long-term ECGs where the device is worn for up to 1-2 weeks.
