|
Heart Rate,
Physical Activity & Caloric Expenditure
Recording System |
|
Single-piece device
that easily measures a subject's energy
expenditure by integrating heart rate and
activity data. |
New features

Records Inter beat interval and Activity
for up to 4 days (440 000 beats)

-
Records heart rate, activity and IBI Max-
Min for up to 21 days
-
Choice of epochs: 15 sec, 30 sec, 1 min
-
Heart rate variabilty analysis: LF, HF,
LF/HF, VLF, RMSSD, SDNN, SDANN and
triangular index
-
2 year warranty
-
Advanced energy expenditure analysis
allows branched analysis, group calibration,
individual calibration using
integrated step test, basal metabolic rate,
VO2 max.
-
Compensation for gaps in data by padding,
extrapolation or excluding invalid points.
-
Compensation for heart rate increase due
to stress.

2 year warranty
Actiheart is the only
heart rate recorder with an integrated
accelerometer. You can accurately and
easily measure activity and heart rate as well
as calculate energy expenditure for ambulatory
activities such as bike riding, skate boarding,
weight lifting, etc. Active energy
expenditure is often underestimated in these,
and similar types of, activities with the use of
an accelerometer alone.
|
|
Actiheart data has a
variety of applications in the sports medicine,
exercise, physical activity and obesity
research fields, for example :
Weight & nutrition
management - Behavioral modification
- Exercise intervention compliance
|
-
Unique, validated algorithm for calculating
energy expenditure
-
ECG signal processing for highly accurate
and consistent heart rate data
-
Omnidirectional accelerometer sampling at 32
Hz
-
Digital interpretation reports both movement
intensity and duration of motion
-
21 - day recording time at 60-second epochs
-
Reliable estimate of oxygen consumption
|
- No chest band; clips onto two ECG
electrodes worn on the chest
- Noninvasive "wear it and forget it"
technology
- Compact and lightweight, weighs only 10g
- ASCII data format
- Waterproof design
- Nonvolatile memory
- Improved comprehensive software
- Ideal for use on adults & children
|
| Calculate energy expenditure
noninvasively while measuring activity and heart
rate. |
|
Actiheart is a compact and rechargeable activity and
heart rate recording device. Activity and heart rate
data are logged into nonvolatile memory for later download.
The data are downloaded to a computer, via the Actiheart
reader/charger, for assessment of activity, heart rate, and
calculated energy expenditure. Data are edited with full
traceability and without compromising the integrity of the
original recording.
|
This innovative, remarkably compact device is
designed to be used with ambulatory subjects. It
contains miniaturized accelerometer and ECG signal
processing electronics. Simply clip on two standard
ECG pads and attach to the subject to record heart
rate and physical activity simultaneously for up to
12 days. |
