Product Description
The Heart Sound Recorder (HSR) is a computer based low risk, general wellness heart stress monitor used to acquire, display, record and save heart sounds.
Certain types of normal heart stress can be monitored by visualizing the rate, rhythm and tone of the heart cycle. The heart’s reaction to certain types of normal stress, such as nutritional or emotional stress can be nearly immediate and its response to a given mitigation technique is often rapid. These changes can be observed by changes of the frequency, ratio, amplitude and characteristics of the heart waveform.
