Abstract
A method and system for contextual heart rate monitoring are disclosed. In a first aspect, the method comprises calculating a heart rate using a detected ECG signal and detecting an activity level. In a second aspect, the system comprises a wireless sensor device coupled to a user via at least one electrode, wherein the wireless sensor device includes a processor and a memory device coupled to the processor, wherein the memory device stores an application which, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to calculate a heart rate using a detected ECG signal and to detect an activity level.
Claims20
A method for contextual heart rate monitoring, the method comprising:
- detecting an ECG signal using a wireless sensor device;
- calculating a heart rate reserve (HRR) using a detected ECG signal;
- and
- detecting an activity level;
- and
- generating a warning based upon both the HRR and the activity level,
- wherein the warning is generated when the HRR is above a first threshold and the activity level is below a fourth threshold,
- wherein the warning is generated when the HRR is below a second threshold and the activity level is above a third threshold.
A system for contextual heart rate monitoring, the system comprising:
- a wireless sensor device coupled to a user via at least one electrode, wherein the wireless sensor device includes a processor;
- and
- a memory device coupled to the processor, wherein the memory device stores an application which, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to:
- calculate a heart rate reserve, HRR using a detected ECG signal;
- and
- detect an activity level;
- and
- generate a warning based upon both the HRR and the activity level, wherein the warning is generated when the HRR is above a first threshold and the activity level is below a fourth threshold,
- wherein the warning is generated when the HRR is below a second threshold and the activity level is above a third threshold.
