HRR is a highly significant predictor of heart health and all cause five-year mortality that does not require specialized equipment and can be done in many settings (home/office). Download app to iPhone and follow instructions. For the most accurate testing, link app to heart rate chest band, as indicated. In the absence of the chest band, self-monitoring of heart rate by hand could be done but is less reliable. After obtaining results, an assessment of heart health is provided.

This will be valuable in identifying regions/locales that could benefit from increased health awareness and care delivery.
