Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to describe the variation characteristics and factors of the heart rate variability during long-distance running.

Description:

Heart rate variability is recognized as the indicator to measure the autonomic nerve activity. By monitoring the heart rate variability of runners during long-distance running, we could monitor the status of the runners' cardiovascular system and predict the exercise risk of runners during long-distance running.
