  2. Bruce protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_protocol

    [citation needed] The heart rate formula most often used for the Bruce is the Karvonen formula (below). A more accurate formula, offered in a study published in the journal, Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, is 206.9 - (0.67 x age) which can also be used to more accurately determine VO2 Max, but may produce significantly different results.

  3. Heart rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_rate

    A medical monitoring device displaying a normal human heart rate. Heart rate is the frequency of the heartbeat measured by the number of contractions of the heart per minute (beats per minute, or bpm). The heart rate varies according to the body's physical needs, including the need to absorb oxygen and excrete carbon dioxide.

  4. Cardiac output - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_output

    Major factors influencing cardiac output – heart rate and stroke volume, both of which are variable. [1]In cardiac physiology, cardiac output (CO), also known as heart output and often denoted by the symbols , ˙, or ˙, [2] is the volumetric flow rate of the heart's pumping output: that is, the volume of blood being pumped by a single ventricle of the heart, per unit time (usually measured ...

    A child aged 1–⁠3 years old can have a heart rate of 80–⁠130 bpm, a child aged 3–⁠5 years old a heart rate of 80–⁠120 bpm, an older child (age of 6–10) a heart rate of 70–⁠110 bpm, and an adolescent (age 11–⁠14) a heart rate of 60–105 bpm. [12] An adult (age 15+) can have a heart rate of 60–100 bpm. [12]

  6. QT interval - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QT_interval

    The most commonly used QT correction formula is the Bazett's formula, [5] named after physiologist Henry Cuthbert Bazett (1885–1950), [6] calculating the heart rate-corrected QT interval (QTcB). Bazett's formula is based on observations from a study in 1920.

  8. Cardiac physiology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_physiology

    The resting heart rate of a newborn can be 120 beats per minute (bpm) and this gradually decreases until maturity and then gradually increases again with age. The adult resting heart rate ranges from 60 to 100 bpm. Exercise and fitness levels, age and basal metabolic rate can all affect the heart rate. An athlete's heart rate can be lower than ...

  9. Rate pressure product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_pressure_product

    The calculation formula is: Rate Pressure Product (RPP) = Heart Rate (HR) * Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) The units for the Heart Rate are beats per minute and for the Blood Pressure mmHg . Rate pressure product is a measure of the stress put on the cardiac muscle based on the number of times it needs to beat per minute (HR) and the arterial ...
