It should be noted that, as part of the study, data from more than four million participants worldwide was analyzed using a mobile application. The results showed that COVID-19 can cause an irregular or high heart rate (more than 100 beats per minute), Blitz writes.
To avoid errors in the measurement of the heart rate, it is necessary to measure it at rest, and it is recommended that the person first rest and relax for five minutes, that is, to eliminate additional stressors or physical activity.
