Researchers have used mathematical analysis tools to study the effect of classical music on a fetal heartbeat and identify patterns in heart rate variability. They recruited 36 pregnant women and ...

Playing music has long been a way for expectant parents to connect with their children in the womb, but a group of researchers has found evidence it can calm fetal heart rates, potentially providing ...

Heart rate variability (HRV) is the variation in the time between two consecutive heartbeats over a specific period. Doctors may use HRV as an indicator for certain aspects of a person’s health, ...

Fetal heart rate (FHR) is one of the most critical indicators of a baby's well-being and development during pregnancy. It measures the number of times the baby's heart beats per minute (bpm) while in ...

Fitness trackers and smart watches are widely popular wearable devices that measure several types of health metrics, including step count, calories burned, sleep quality, Vo2 max and heart rate.

Heart rate variability typically decreases during stressful situations, although the heart rate increases. Managing stress levels can mean a more variable heart rate. Exercise and relaxation ...
