Validity of the Polar H10 Sensor for Heart Rate Variability Analysis during Resting State and Incremental Exercise in Recreational Men and Women
Open accessAbstract
Heart rate variability (HRV) is frequently applied in sport-specific settings. The rising use of freely accessible applications for its recording requires validation processes to ensure accurate data. It is the aim of this study to compare the HRV data obtained by the Polar H10 sensor chest strap device and an electrocardiogram (ECG) with the focus on RR intervals and short-term scaling exponent alpha 1 of Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (DFA a1) as non-linear metric of HRV analysis. A group of 25 participants performed an exhaustive cycling ramp with measurements of HRV with both recording systems. Average time between heartbeats (RR), heart rate (HR) and DFA a1 were recorded before (PRE), during, and after (POST) the exercise test. High correlations were found for the resting conditions (PRE: r = 0.95, rc = 0.95, ICC3,1 = 0.95, POST: r = 0.86, rc = 0.84, ICC3,1 = 0.85) and for the incremental exercise (r > 0.93, rc > 0.93, ICC3,1 > 0.93). While PRE and POST comparisons revealed no differences, significant bias could be found during the exercise test for all variables (p < 0.001). For RR and HR, bias and limits of agreement (LoA) in the Bland–Altman analysis were minimal (RR: bias of 0.7 to 0.4 ms with LoA of 4.3 to −2.8 ms during low intensity and 1.3 to −0.5 ms during high intensity, HR: bias of −0.1 to −0.2 ms with LoA of 0.3 to −0.5 ms during low intensity and 0.4 to −0.7 ms during high intensity). DFA a1 showed wider bias and LoAs (bias of 0.9 to 8.6% with LoA of 11.6 to −9.9% during low intensity and 58.1 to −40.9% during high intensity). Linear HRV measurements derived from the Polar H10 chest strap device show strong agreement and small bias compared with ECG recordings and can be recommended for practitioners. However, with respect to DFA a1, values in the uncorrelated range and during higher exercise intensities tend to elicit higher bias and wider LoA.

TL;DR
In 25 recreational men and women, the Polar H10 chest strap with Elite HRV showed near-perfect agreement with a 12-channel ECG for RR and HR at rest and during incremental cycling, with small bias despite significant exercise differences. DFA a1 agreement was high but weaker, with wider bias and limits of agreement, especially at higher exercise intensities.
Key findings
- Linear HRV measures showed near-perfect agreement: PRE/POST RR and HR had r = 1.00, rc = 1.00, ICC3,1 = 1.00, and incremental exercise also had r = 1.00, rc = 1.00, ICC3,1 = 1.00. Resting PRE/POST comparisons showed no significant differences, while exercise comparisons showed significant bias for all variables (p < 0.001).
- DFA a1 correlations were high but comparatively weaker: PRE/POST r > 0.86, rc > 0.84, ICC3,1 > 0.85; incremental exercise r > 0.93, rc > 0.93, ICC3,1 > 0.93, with significant differences during exercise (p < 0.001).
- DFA a1 bias and limits of agreement were wider than for linear measures: PRE bias −2.1%, POST bias 2.5%; during exercise, low intensity bias 0.9% with LoA 11.6 to −9.9%, and high intensity bias 8.6% with LoA 58.1 to −40.9%.
- DFA a1 index values were approximately 6% and 7.5% higher for Polar H10 at fixed values of 0.75 and 0.5 compared with ECG, so threshold boundaries were crossed at higher HRs when using Polar H10.
Methods
- Cross-sectional validation study: 25 participants (men n = 14, age 40 ± 14 years; women n = 11, age 34 ± 10 years) performed an exhaustive cycling ramp with simultaneous Polar H10/Elite HRV and 12-channel ECG recordings before (PRE), during, and after (POST) exercise.
- RR, HR, and DFA a1 were analyzed in Kubios HRV Premium 3.5.0; resting analyses used a 2-min window, exercise used a 2-min moving window with 20-s grid, and datasets with artefacts >5% were excluded.
- Agreement was assessed with linear regression, Pearson’s r, Lin’s concordance correlation coefficient, ICC3,1, R², SEE, Bland–Altman LoA, paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed ranks test, and Cohen’s d, with significance at p ≤ 0.05.
Limitations
- Stated by the paper: the study did not group samples by individual personal characteristics; future studies could examine whether body composition, gender, age, or ventricular characteristics influence outcomes.
- Stated by the paper: the Polar H10 stores RR intervals but not ECG waveforms, so excessive artefacts cannot be identified or corrected, and noise cannot be differentiated from cardiac arrhythmia; five participants were excluded from exercise analysis and two from resting POST measurement due to artefacts >5%.
- Stated by the paper: raw data were analyzed with Kubios HRV Premium using automatic artefact correction, and the free standard Kubios version with threshold-based correction could yield slightly different results; the text also makes evident that device and lead placement differences prevent attributing discrepancies to a single variable.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-09, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-09 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
