Better tools to help you keeping track of physiological changes in response to infections and sickness

5/4/2020

 
With the ongoing global pandemic, the medical community has been looking into alternatives that can help identifying and managing individuals that might require additional care, which brought a renewed interest into wearables or in general in tools that can provide physiological measurements. Heart rate, HRV, temperature, are all great candidates as these parameters have shown a consistent response to infections.

In this context, in the past few weeks we have started a few collaborations with research institutions in Italy and Germany, providing the technology required to further investigate the relationship between (among other parameters), resting physiology and COVID-19 infections.

However, as a user of our system, you might want to know what to look at as a potential indicator of infection or sickness based on our current knowledge and published research.

In this post, I cover the basics of heart rate in the context of infections, and show a new feature we have built in HRV4Training Pro to help you identify more easily periods in which heart rate is abnormal, and therefore might require more attention.

I hope you'll find the material and new feature useful. Full post at this link.

​Stay safe.
