Abstract: Diagnosing the heart disorders is major challenge because of their short–lasting and intermittent character. The convincing technologies with non–invasive heart rate monitoring systems acquire Electrocardiogram (ECG) have limitations with reference to sensitivity. There are different types of wearable, flexible electrocardiogram sensors that can yield important information about underlying physiological parameters of human for applications related to real time monitoring of health, fitness, and wellness. Sensors with leads are all derived using three electrodes which are used to pick the electrical activity from a different position on the heart muscle. Lead-less sensors are now widely used for acquisition of ECG and related signals for heart rate monitoring which has more advantages compared to other sensors. Henceforth, various sensors are studied to understand their relation with heart rate monitoring. It is inferred that MAX30100 sensor can improve the accuracy of ECG recordings for early detection of cardiovascular diseases.
