– We did before similar suggestions:

  • We repeat what we have said before: find if possible a good cardiologist which has a good ECG device and knows how to handle it, and discuss if possible the whole procedure with a cardiologist. Cardioloigsts are experts for heart rate measurements.
  • If you want to make tests without a cardiologist, choose a 3 lead ECG device which already has been used in good journals. We suggest to choose for instance this one:
  • choose a good protocol which was already has been used in a good journal, for instance the protocol which was chosen in this paper:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6732081/

  • Accuracy tests where performed up to about 15 km/h. At higher speeds, we suppose that ECG noise and movement artifacts will occurr.
  • If you don’t pay attention to these things, you have to expect that others have done similar tests as you, and they did it better than you, and you have to expect that you will be critizised for not having chosen the best available procedure for your tests.
