Heart Rate Variability Monitoring during a Padel Match
Parraça, Alberto; Alegrete, Joana; Villafaina, Santos; Batalha, Nuno; Fontes-Garcia, Juan; Munoz, Diego; Fernandes, OrlandoPadel, an increasingly popular sport, presents some associated cardiovascular risks, which can be prevented by heart rate variability (HRV) monitoring.
