Description
Summary:Ambulatory electrocardiographic monitoring may be utilized to assess individual physiological response to activity, although a literature review revealed that the application of this information to the field of cardiac rehabilitation is limited. This exploratory study was undertaken to determine the effectiveness of ambulatory heart-rate recording as an objective means of job description and prescription. Results showed that heart rate increases linearly with job activity (p
