What the study reports

A measurement study of the reliability and sensitivity of nocturnal heart rate and heart-rate variability recorded with wearable devices in endurance athletes.

The PROMACHOS reading

Monitoring is only useful if the measurement is stable. Before a metric governs training decisions, its noise floor must be known.

This work was produced by its authors and published in the journal named above. PROMACHOS did not conduct this research, holds no interest in its findings, and provides this summary for educational use only. Read the source before relying on it.
