IB Biology B3.2.4 Pulse rate measurement
Practise describing practical ways to measure pulse or heart rate during exercise studies, including equipment and counting beats over time.
How this is tested
- outline a method for measuring heart rate in a treadmill or bicycle study
- state suitable equipment and how it records or counts heart beats
- apply beats-per-minute calculations when pulse counts are taken over shorter intervals
