Pulsemeter

A pulsemeter is a medical device that measures your heart rate. It is a non-invasive device, meaning it does not require any needles or incisions. Pulsemeters are commonly used in hospitals, clinics, and by individuals at home.

There are two main types of pulsemeters: optical and electrical. Optical pulsemeters use light to measure the changes in the blood volume in your finger or wrist. Electrical pulsemeters use electrodes to measure the electrical activity of your heart.

Pulsemeters are used for a variety of purposes, including:

• Monitoring heart rate during exercise
• Detecting arrhythmias (abnormal heart rhythms)
• Monitoring heart rate during surgery or other medical procedures
• Tracking heart rate over time to identify trends
