Measuring resting heart rate during daily life using wearable technology: Examining the impact of behavioral context and methodological criteria
Behavioral context and method of analysis impact ECG-based HR measures at rest. This study recommends a novel wearable-based method for measuring daily life RHR that maximizes use of available data and confronts variability that exists with extended monitoring. Use of a standard method for measuring daily life RHR may advance the use of HR to inform clinical and/or personal health decisions.
