does this model detect irregular heartbeat?

NO it does not. I have LBBB and I can tell you it absolutely does not detect my irregular heartbeat.

Yes, it detects irregular heartbeat. The one thing that this model doesn't do, that my prior device did, was record date and time, for historical purposes.

It doesn't do anything accurately. If you want a heart monitor that works, don't buy this one.

No. This device is pretty basic. It does not alarm for low oxygen saturations either. We just use it for checking my husband's oxygen levels, because he has significant lung disease, and we want to be able to correlate how he is feeling and looking with what his oxygen saturation actually is. It works well for that purpose. Devices that alarm for high pulse rates or low saturation levels start in the 350.00 plus range the last time I priced any.

I don't believe it does. We had to return ours because the blood pressure readings were inaccurate. They couldn't replace it and we bought a different type. But my husband has a-fib and never got a warning, even though he's about to have a defibrillator implanted.

I can't really answer that because I didn't wear it often. I didn't find it to be that user friendly so I went back to using my Polar watch w/ heart rate monitor. You may want to ask other purchasers and/or do a customer review search to get a better cross section of opininos.

Not in the current software. By the time any pulse ox alarms you patient has tanked... Rely on the early clinical signs of hypoxia rather than alarm that goes off too late...

No it doesn't. You have to know your rhythms. It does tell you if there are missed beats but that could be interpreted a lot of different ways. You can see the p waves st seg qrs but only as a general reading normal or not. It isn't able to measure the segments.

Check it against your pulse rate - if your rate is that high u need medical assisstance

Yes. It shows one's pulse, with an "OK" icon to indicate the heartbeat is regular. I don't know how sensitive it is. I see that the newer model, BP785N, does not mention this feature.

It will monitor resting heart rate.So long as the chest strap is properly positioned it will monitor your heart rate.

It's a bit of a hack, see http://www.johannesbader.ch/2014/06/track-your-heartrate-on-raspberry-pi-with-ant/. Otherwise, best to contact Suunto customer support via their website - http://www.suunto.com. Good luck.

I think this a spot check device. If you are looking for a heart rate monitor for sports consider one of the many polar models.

Yes. When in HR mode, current heart rate is displayed at all times until HR mode is cancelled/exited.

I don't feel the heart rate monitor is accurate or practical. While moving I am unable to get any readout. I would NOT recommend this product to anyone looking for something more than a time piece.

Hi Brian, good question. Basis bands detect heart rate in real time on the wrist and show minute averages on your online dashboard. You can track you stress by monitoring your elevated heart rate but the band is not meant to diagnose any health conditions.

Yes it does. Thats exactly what it was designed for. I recommend you go to your doctor and get a reading from his/her device, that way you'd be able to get an accurate reading from this machine.Strange enough that I also do have an irregular heartbeat many many years now (1997 or so) and the doctor ran some testing for over a 2 weeks period to see what was wrong. Finally he told me thats the way my heart beats. To this day I don't ever worry about it and it does not worry me, and I'm 55 yrs young and going strong ☺ ☻ ☼
