Brief research report: Photoplethysmography pulse sensors designed to detect human heart rates are ineffective at measuring horse heart rates

This study sought to evaluate the accuracy of a PPG (photoplethysmography) sensor designed to measure human heart rates in monitoring the distal limb pulse of healthy adult horses. We hypothesized that the PPG sensor is sensitive to placement location and orientation, and that measurement accuracies...
