Normal levels heartbeat at rest
Metering pulse is usually made on the wrist, in which one can count the number of heart beats per 60 seconds. pulse parameters in women and men have slight differences. They also depend on the age of the person and the presence of concomitant diseases.
men
pulse rate for men in the rest range from 60 to 90 beats in 60 seconds.
On the performance is affected by:
- age;
- the weight;
- psycho-emotional state;
- medication.
Among women
Average heart rate in women depends on the age-specific and general condition of the body, ranging from 70 to 90 for young girls, and from 65 to 80 for the older women.
Which heart rate is normal for walking, running?
Heart rate during exercise and increases sharply deviates from normal values at rest. Walking and running are stepping muscular work, which consumes a certain amount of energy. In this accelerated metabolism and blood circulation, and therefore the active tissue enriched with oxygen, and heart rate increases.
HR norm in women during walking is 100-120 beats per minute. The indicator 100 indicating a good physical preparation. Increased heart rate up to 120 and above indicates the need for more frequent training. Jogging assume a more intense load on the heart than just walking. Therefore the heart rate is higher - from 115 to 140 beats per minute.
Heart rate at night
Average heart rate per minute (women from 60 beats) during sleep is different from the usual rates for the period of wakefulness. This is due to the fact that during the night reduced pressure, metabolism, body temperature and body is immersed in a deep relaxation.
During the night the pulse slows down by 1.5 times from the normal values in the daytime. For women, the figure is 60 to 70 beats per minute. The lowest recorded heart rate indicators in the area 4 in the morning may be from 30 to 50 strokes. This is due to the fact that at this time of vagus nerve inhibits the heart muscle.
Age norms pulse
On the pulse parameters in women is influenced by age-based indicators. At different stages of the life of the body is exposed to a number of changes that affect the rate of metabolism, blood vessels and heart muscle work.
Up to 30 years
The body of a young woman of 30 years in normal operation is rarely amenable to significant changes. As a rule, the cardiovascular system is functioning without disturbances.
Normal pulse rate for women under 30 years of 70-80 beats per minute. Minimum frequency - 60 strokes, maximum - 90 strokes.
In the case where there are significant deviations from the figures, there is a risk of the existence of failures in the body.
After 30 years
Heart rate in women with age tends to slow down. So after 30 years minimum values normally remain the same - 60 beats per minute. The maximum allowable - 85 beats per minute.
After 50 years
The body of a woman after 50 years there is a number of changes that affect the heart rate.
These include:
- hormonal changes due to menopause;
- slowing metabolism;
- loss of elasticity of blood vessels;
- high cholesterol;
- unhealthy lifestyle.
All this may lead to malfunction of the cardiovascular system and the development of tachycardia or fibrillation. The pulse rate in women after 50 years, an average of 65-75 beats per 60 seconds.
Features heart in pregnancy
Average heart rate per minute in women during pregnancy is somewhat different from the conventional indicators. During gestation the body more blood pumps, the volume of which is increased by 1.5-2 liter. The load on the heart increases, it begins to work with more intensity. This causes heart palpitations.
Pulse rate indicators at different stages of pregnancy:
| 1 term | average rates - 80-95 strokes; the maximum allowable - 110-120 beats at rest. |
| 2 trimester | from 14 to 25 week - 80-90 beats per 1 minute 25 weeks - 100-120 beats per 1 minute |
| 3 trimester | average indicators - 120 beats. permissible limits - 120-150 beats per 1 minute. |
The formula for the calculation of the individual pulse rate
To a formula for calculating the pulse resorted to in case of physical activity in order to build on these indicators further in sports. For this purpose is used a known Karvonen formula, which allows to calculate the heart rate at the time of exercise and work for such pulse, which will facilitate the process of fat burning.
Formula:
- pulse rate = (220 - age females) - HR} + x IIT HR.
- HR - the number of heart rate at rest.
- PPI - planned exercise intensity (between 10 and 80%, which corresponds to 0.1 - 0.8).
The reasons for rejection in heart rate
Deviation indicators pulse rate from the accepted norms may be a sign of serious disorders of the heart and blood vessels. There are two main abnormalities associated with heart rate - tachycardia and bradycardia.
Rapid pulse
In medicine, increased heart rate is called tachycardia. This is a symptom that indicates both the presence of pathological processes and unstable emotional state. It is considered to be speeded up pulse, the indicators of which greater than 90 beats per minute at rest.
Tachycardia develops due to these reasons:
- presence of heart disease;
- stress, fatigue, nervous irritability;
- acceptance of energy drinks;
- hormonal changes during puberty, pregnancy or menopause;
- metabolic disorder;
- thyroid disease;
- infectious disease accompanied by fever;
- intense physical activity;
- adverse reaction to medication.
slow pulse
Slowing heart rate is called bradycardia. Thus heart rate decreases to an amount of 45-50 beats per minute.
Aetiology is considered to be a concomitant symptom, not the disease develops as a result of:
- conduction disturbances infarction;
- malfunction of the thyroid gland;
- infectious diseases involving severe intoxication of an organism;
- fasting with a diet;
- taking the drugs which depress operation sinus;
- pregnancy;
- elderly.
The necessary research for deviations
To identify the causes of cardiac arrhythmias applied instrumental and laboratory methods, as well as a visual inspection at the reception of the expert. On examination, the patient's doctor is studying a medical history and medical history to determine the general condition of the body. It counts the number of heart beats per minute, and measurement of blood pressure.
Instrumental methods of diagnosis include:
- ECG;
- ECHO-ECG;
- stress test;
- Thyroid ultrasound;
- daily monitoring of Holter
Electrocardiography (ECG) allows you to:
- to assess the regularity of heart rate;
- count the number of heart beats;
- determine the source of excitation;
- to evaluate the conductivity function.
The essence echocardiography (ECHO-ECG) is a study using ultrasound. A sensor under the influence of the device extends the waves passing through the heart and reflect on it. Further data are displayed on a computer monitor.
Due to the method can be determined:
- thickness and vascular structure of the heart;
- cardiac membrane state;
- the state of the heart valves.
Stress test is performed on the basis of ECG or EKG ECHO.
The method consists of several steps:
- Estimated structure of the heart and heart rhythm.
- Introduction of certain medicines, followed by the physical activity of the patient.
- Reading the heart after exercise.
research method allows to identify coronary artery disease at an early stage of development. Daily monitorivanie applied using the ECG data. To the patient's chest is attached a plurality of electrodes connected to a recording device.
ECG recording is done during the day, after which the device reads all the necessary information about the heart rate. Thyroid ultrasound is performed to eliminate the violations by the body.
Drug treatment at high pulse
If rapid pulse applied drugs that normalize heart rate. Conventionally, they share on sedatives and anti-arrhythmic.
Antiarrhythmic drugs used for a racing heart rate are divided into groups:
| Beta adrenoblokatotory (relax the vessel walls and allow better endure physical exertion) |
|
| calcium channel inhibitors (used to reduce the muscle tone and improving blood flow) |
|
| Tranquilizers (used when the cause of increased heart rate is increased anxiety) |
|
| potassium blockers (electric contribute to slower processes in the heart) |
|
| Cardiac glycosides (improve blood flow and slow the heart rate) |
|
| ACE inhibitors (lower pulse through expansion of the arterial walls) |
|
Sedatives are presented synthetic, combined and homeopathic drugs that soothe the central nervous system.
For homeopathic include:
- Valerian extract (tincture, capsules, tablets);
- Motherwort tincture;
- Neyroplant;
- Fitosedan;
Synthetic sedatives presented bromides, which are aimed at the elimination of neuroses and insomnia:
- Dobrokam;
- Adonis bromo.
Combined means used to achieve the most rapid effect in psychomotor agitation:
- Dormiplant;
- Persen;
- Novopassit.
- Valokordin.
Drugs or slow heartbeat
If bradycardia used drugs that minimize the effect of the vagus nerve on the heart.
The most effective medications:
- Corvalol - vasodilator sedative in drops shown for use in cardiac disorders.
- izadrin - intravenous drug that increases the excitability and myocardial contractility.
- riboksin - oral agent in tablets, contributing to improve the coronary circulation, stimulate metabolic processes.
- Papangin - means on the basis of potassium and magnesium to be administered intravenously, has antiischemic activity.
Folk remedies for the normalization of heart rate
Average heart rate per minute can be restored (women palpitations occurs more often) through the use of tools and recipes of traditional medicine. They act as kompomenta complex treatment along with medication therapy.
Traditional recipes:
-
Broth of hawthorn. Hawthorn strengthens the heart muscle, and normalizing heart rate. For preparation of 50 g of berries must pour 200 ml hot water and infuse for 8-10 hours. Consumed before a meal 50 ml.
- Tincture of valerian root. The plant reduces the rapid heart rate. For the preparation of infusions at home have to take 20 g of milled plant root and pour 200 ml hot water. Infuse solution within 12 hours 3 times a day for 20 ml.
- Tea from lemon balm. Should be consumed with palpitations. To make tea, need 20 g of dried plants pour 200 ml hot water, the fire hold for 5 min. Insist 30 minutes and consumed 100 ml 3 times per day.
- Lemon and garlic mixture. It is used for low frequency heart rate. Squeeze lemon juice from 1, mixed with 1 crushed garlic clove and pour 20 ml linden honey. Consumed 40 g in the morning on an empty stomach.
- A mixture of dried fruits. To prepare the need for 100 g of dried apricots, raisins, walnuts, ½ lemon and 4 tbsp. l. honey. Grind dried fruit and nuts and lemon with a mincer or blender. Stir the resulting mixture of honey and use of 30 g of the breakfast.
Physical activity for deviations
Average heart rate per minute does not involve contraindications to physical activity. However, the presence of women's problems with heart rhythm should be wary of sports. In some deviations, any physical activity is strictly forbidden.
These include:
- paroxysmal tachycardia;
- myocardial infarction;
- Congenital heart defect;
- atrial and sinus arrhythmia.
In other cases, people with disabilities in the frequency of heart rate, physical activity recommended in the form of:
- swimming lessons;
- yoga;
- walk;
- Pilates;
- fitness;
- jogging;
- therapeutic exercises (LFK)
diet therapy
Diet therapy is applied as an integrated treatment and allows to saturate the body substances, positively affecting the heart. Proper nutrition for bradycardia and tachycardia are not only improves the cardiovascular system, but also It helps to activate the metabolism and get rid of excess weight, which adversely affect the operation of heart.
The basic principles of diet in violation of the heart rate is:
- eating food in small portions;
- Cooking methods and extinguishing cooking;
- observe daily caloric with the necessary proteins, fats and carbohydrates.
The products required for use:
- greens, vegetables, fruit;
- whole wheat bread;
- a variety of cereals;
- products with high contents of calcium, potassium (milk and milk products, bananas, avocados, spinach);
- fish, lean poultry and rabbit, beef;
- greenery;
- freshly squeezed juices;
- legumes.
From which it is necessary to give:
- alcohol;
- carbonated drinks;
- fried, fatty, too salty food;
- fast food;
- confectionery and bakery products.
Average heart rate per minute - an indicator of the lack of problems with the cardiovascular system. However, not always a cause for heart rhythm disruptions are heart disease. In women, the occurrence of arrhythmia is frequently associated with emotional state, thyroid or hormonal imbalance disease.
