利用平靜心率計算心臟健康指數的方法與裝置 Method and apparatus for calculating heart health index using calm heart rate

本發明關於一種計算心臟健康指數的方法與裝置,尤指一種利用平靜心率計算心臟健康指數的方法與裝置。 The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for calculating a heart health index, and more particularly to a method and apparatus for calculating a heart health index using a calm heart rate.

目前用來估計心臟健康狀況的方法,主要是藉由使用者的病史(例如高血壓、肥胖、糖尿病、心臟病)或是生活習慣(例如抽菸、偏好葷食、熬夜、運動)來推算,這些估計方法僅僅只是根據外在因素與部分病史來推算,然而這些因素對於每個個體的影響皆不同,每個個體的體質或遺傳上差異也都不相同,有可能同樣是熬夜對一個體的心臟健康狀況的影響很大,但對另一個體卻相對很小,因此上述習知的心臟健康狀況估計方法並無對受測者直接進行測量,並且將其心臟健康狀況量化,所以該方法是非常粗略的。除此之外,目前是有其他的較精確地估計心臟健康狀況的方法,例如通過同時測量一個體的心電訊號、心率變異度和血壓等數據,再根據這些數據來估計該個體的心臟健康狀況,然而這種較精確的估計方法往往需要精密的設備,此設備通常體積大、重量重不方便攜帶、造價昂貴,其計算方法也複雜繁瑣因此是一種不符合經濟效益的方法。因此勢必要發展出一種簡便卻精確地估計心臟健康狀況的方法與裝置,以解決上述 技術問題。 The current methods used to estimate the health of the heart are mainly based on the user's medical history (such as high blood pressure, obesity, diabetes, heart disease) or lifestyle habits (such as smoking, preference for food, staying up late, exercise). These estimation methods are only based on external factors and some medical history. However, these factors have different effects on each individual. Each individual's physical or genetic differences are also different. It is possible to stay up all night. The health of the heart is very large, but it is relatively small for the other body. Therefore, the above-mentioned method for estimating the state of the heart is not directly measured by the subject, and the heart health is quantified, so the method is Very rough. In addition, there are other methods for estimating cardiac health more accurately, such as by simultaneously measuring the ECG, heart rate variability, and blood pressure of a subject, and then estimating the heart health of the individual based on the data. Condition, however, this more accurate estimation method often requires sophisticated equipment. This equipment is usually bulky, heavy and inconvenient to carry, expensive to construct, and its calculation method is complicated and cumbersome, so it is a non-economical method.

小型哺乳動物如鼠、兔類等心率很快,每分鐘可達數百次,但它們的壽命僅1-3年。相反大型哺乳動物如鯨體重很大,心率慢,每分鐘僅20次左右,其壽命卻可達30-40年。格拉帕哥斯龜壽命可長達177年,它的每分鐘心跳僅為6次,一生心臟共跳動約5.6億次。令人驚奇的是,所有哺乳動物(人類除外)一生的心跳次數基本一樣,大約是7.3億次左右。這些現象的確切原因尚未完全清楚,其中一種可能的解釋是:心率由機體能量代謝需求決定,遵守生物物理學規律,機體能量耗盡,生命也就終結,而心 率正是反映機體能量代謝的有效指標。 Small mammals such as rats and rabbits have a fast heart rate of up to hundreds of times per minute, but their lifespan is only 1-3 years. In contrast, large mammals, such as whales, have a large body weight and a slow heart rate, only about 20 times per minute, and their life span can reach 30-40 years. The life of the Grappagos can last up to 177 years. It has only 6 beats per minute and a total of 560 million beats in a lifetime. Surprisingly, the number of heartbeats in all mammals (except humans) is basically the same, about 730 million times. The exact cause of these phenomena is not fully understood. One possible explanation is that the heart rate is determined by the body's energy metabolism requirements, obeying the laws of biophysics, the body's energy is exhausted, and life ends. The rate is an effective indicator of the body's energy metabolism.

平靜心率是指在清醒、不活動的安靜狀態下,每分鐘心跳的次數。從臨床觀察來看,人體安靜狀態時心率在55-70次/分鐘(bpm)比較理想,假如經常超過80-85bpm就應該引起警惕。專家認為,健康成年人心率範圍是60-100bpm。傑出運動員由於心臟很健壯,所以心率一般都比較低,在40bpm左右。 Calm heart rate refers to the number of heartbeats per minute in a quiet state of waking and inactivity. From the clinical observation, the heart rate is ideal at 55-70 beats per minute (bpm) when the human body is quiet. If it is often more than 80-85 bpm, it should be vigilant. Experts believe that healthy adults have a heart rate range of 60-100 bpm. Outstanding athletes have a very low heart rate due to their strong heart, around 40bpm.

研究顯示,平靜心率慢的人活得更長。挪威研究人員分析了近30,000名男女的心率,發現那些平靜心率升高時間過久者心臟病死亡率更高。這些受試者都是沒有心臟病史的健康人,而且同意在10年時間內接受兩輪檢測,第一輪檢測於1984年-1986年之間進行,第二輪檢測於1995年-1997年之間進行。第一輪檢測靜止脈搏每分鐘70bpm以下,第二輪檢測靜止脈搏緩慢升高至85bpm以上的受試者比對照組平靜心率保持70bpm不變的者,在測試後12年以上的死亡率比對照組高兩倍。第一輪檢測脈搏在70-85bpm之間的受試者也有死於心臟相關疾病的危險:如果他們的心率在第二輪檢測時上升到85bpm以上,則他們比心率保持不變的對照組心臟病的死亡率增加85%。隨著時間的推移,心率下降的受試者結果正好相反:第一輪測試平靜心率為70-85bpm,第二輪測試低於70bpm的受試者比脈搏頻率保持不變的受試者,心臟病死亡率還要低40%。 Studies have shown that people with a slow heart rate live longer. Norwegian researchers analyzed the heart rate of nearly 30,000 men and women and found that those with a calming heart rate increased for a longer period of time. These subjects were healthy people without a history of heart disease and agreed to undergo two rounds of testing within 10 years. The first round of testing was conducted between 1984 and 1986, and the second round of testing was conducted between 1995 and 1997. In between. In the first round, the resting pulse was below 70 bpm, and in the second round, the resting pulse was slowly increased to above 85 bpm. The resting heart rate remained unchanged at 70 bpm, and the mortality rate was more than 12 years after the test. The group is twice as tall. The first round of subjects with a pulse between 70-85 bpm also had a risk of dying from a heart-related disease: if their heart rate rose above 85 bpm in the second round, they were more than a control heart with a constant heart rate. The mortality rate of the disease increased by 85%. Over time, subjects with decreased heart rate had the opposite outcome: the first round of tests had a resting heart rate of 70-85 bpm, and the second round of tests had subjects with a lower than 70 bpm than the subject with a constant pulse rate. The mortality rate is 40% lower.

人類的心跳次數明顯受自主神經與體液因素的影響,如人激動時心率會加快,完全安靜時心率會減慢。科學研究表明,成人平靜心率在70bpm,其壽命可達80歲(排除各種疾病的干擾)。人一生總心跳次數約為25億次至30億次,如果平靜心率在60bpm左右,其壽命可達93歲。因此 平靜心率偏慢的壽命延長,相反的平靜心率大於80bpm的壽命就會縮短,由此也可以看出,在人類族群當中也可以觀察到一生的心跳次數基本一樣的現象。 The number of human heartbeats is obviously affected by autonomic and humoral factors. If people are excited, their heart rate will increase, and when they are completely quiet, their heart rate will slow down. Scientific research shows that the adult's calm heart rate is 70bpm, and its life expectancy can reach 80 years old (excluding the interference of various diseases). The total number of heartbeats in a person's life is about 2.5 billion to 3 billion. If the heart rate is around 60bpm, the life expectancy is 93 years. therefore The life expectancy of a slow heart rate is prolonged, and the life expectancy of a calmer heart rate greater than 80 bpm is shortened. It can also be seen that the same number of heartbeats in a lifetime can be observed in the human race.

大量臨床研究也證實,平靜心率偏快的人,發生各種心血管疾病的危險明顯增加,死亡率也高。研究資料表明,安靜時心率經常偏快(即心率大於80~85bpm)的人,發生冠心病、高血壓、心臟猝死等心血管危險事件的機率明顯超過心率偏慢的人。對於健康人來說,如果排除了生理因素(如焦慮緊張,大量吸煙、飲酒,喝濃茶、咖啡,失眠等)的影響,經常出現安靜時心率偏快,就應該去醫院進行心血管方面的檢查,排除疾病隱患。 A large number of clinical studies have also confirmed that people with a calm heart rate have a significantly increased risk of various cardiovascular diseases and a high mortality rate. Studies have shown that people who are often too fast in heart rate (ie, heart rate greater than 80-85 bpm) have a significantly higher risk of cardiovascular risk events such as coronary heart disease, high blood pressure, and sudden cardiac death than those with a slow heart rate. For healthy people, if the physiological factors (such as anxiety, heavy smoking, drinking, drinking tea, coffee, insomnia, etc.) are excluded, the heart rate is often fast when you are quiet, you should go to the hospital for cardiovascular. Check to eliminate the hidden dangers of the disease.

如上所述,在人類族群當中也可以觀察到人類一生的心跳總次數基本一樣的現象,並且個體的平靜心率可以代表個體至目前年齡的心跳總次數(×365日×24小時×60分鐘),個體所在的族群在個體的目前年齡的平均平靜心率可以代表個體所在的族群中至目前年齡的平均心跳總次數(×365日×24小時×60分鐘)。因此若是個體的平靜心率低於族群平均值,則該個體的目前的心跳總次數比族群平均值少,該個體的心臟年齡比實際年齡年輕,而預估壽命應比族群平均壽命長;相反的個體平均平靜心率高於族群平均值,則該個體的目前的心跳總次數比族群平均值多,該個體的心臟年齡比實際年齡年老,而預估壽命應比族群受平均壽命短。 As mentioned above, it is also observed in the human race that the total number of heartbeats in a person's life is basically the same, and the individual's calm heart rate can represent the total number of heartbeats of the individual to the current age (×365 days × 24 hours × 60 minutes). The average resting heart rate of the individual's current age at the individual's age can represent the total number of heartbeats in the population of the individual to the current age (×365 days x 24 hours x 60 minutes). Therefore, if the individual's resting heart rate is lower than the ethnic average, the individual's current total heart rate is less than the ethnic average, the individual's heart age is younger than the actual age, and the estimated life should be longer than the average life of the group; If the average resting heart rate of the individual is higher than the average of the ethnic group, the current total number of heartbeats of the individual is more than the average of the ethnic group. The heart age of the individual is older than the actual age, and the estimated life expectancy should be shorter than the average life of the ethnic group.

在步驟S120中,以統計方式計算出該個體所在的一族群在該個體的目前年齡的一平均平靜心率。該族群可以指全世界人口、全世界人類男性、某特定種族人口(例如亞洲人、高加索人)、某特定種族男性、某特定種族女性、某特定地區人口(例如東亞地區、北美地區)、某特定地區男性、某特定地區女性、某特定國家人口(例如台灣、中國美國)、某特定國家男性、某特定國家女性、某特定城市人口(例如台北、上海、紐約)、某特定城市男性及某特定城市女性。然而上述的族群僅為實施範例,可以根據該 個體或是所需求選擇計算的特定族群的目前年齡的平均心率,本發明的計算心臟健康指數或心臟年齡的方法可以應用於各種族群,因此不應以此限制本發明。除此之外,上述的族群的平均平靜心率可以通過統計方式計算而獲得,或是直接使用一資料庫中已經被統計計算出的族群平均心率。舉例而言,可以通過各國家的衛福部的資料庫中獲得已經被統計計算出的族群平均心率。下表1顯示台灣衛福部所公布的個年齡層不同性別的平均平靜心率(台灣男性平均壽命為75歲而女性為82歲): In step S120, an average resting heart rate of the current age of the individual in the individual is calculated statistically. This group can refer to the population of the world, human males around the world, a certain ethnic population (such as Asians, Caucasians), a certain ethnic male, a certain ethnic female, a specific regional population (such as East Asia, North America), Men in a particular region, women in a particular region, population in a particular country (eg, Taiwan, China, USA), male in a particular country, female in a particular country, population in a particular city (eg, Taipei, Shanghai, New York), male in a particular city, and Women in specific cities. However, the above-mentioned ethnic group is only an example of implementation, and the method for calculating the heart health index or the heart age of the present invention can be applied to various ethnic groups according to the average heart rate of the current age of the specific ethnic group calculated according to the individual or the demand, and therefore should not be applied to various ethnic groups. This limits the invention. In addition, the average resting heart rate of the above-mentioned ethnic groups can be obtained by statistical calculation, or directly using the average heart rate of the ethnic group that has been statistically calculated in a database. For example, the average heart rate of the population that has been statistically calculated can be obtained from the database of the Ministry of Health and Welfare in each country. Table 1 below shows the average calming heart rate of different age groups published by Taiwan's Weifu Department (the average life expectancy of Taiwanese males is 75 years and females are 82 years old):

在步驟S140中,根據該個體的平靜心率與該族群的該平均平靜心率的比率計算出一心臟年齡。該心臟年齡表示該個體的心臟健康狀況相當於幾歲的人的心臟健康狀況,也表示該個體的至目前年齡的心跳總次數與幾歲的人的心跳總次數相同。舉例而言,當該個體為30歲,但所計算出的該個體的心臟年齡為25歲,表示其心臟健康狀況與25歲的人相仿,也表示其至30歲的心跳總次數卻與25歲的人的心跳總次數相同,顯示其心臟健康狀況很好。 In step S140, a heart age is calculated based on the ratio of the individual's resting heart rate to the average resting heart rate of the ethnic group. The age of the heart indicates that the individual's heart health is equivalent to the heart health of a person of a few years, and that the total number of heartbeats of the individual to the current age is the same as the total number of heartbeats of a person of a few years. For example, when the individual is 30 years old, but the calculated heart age of the individual is 25 years old, indicating that his or her heart health is similar to that of a 25-year-old person, it also indicates that the total number of heartbeats to 30 years old is 25 Old people have the same number of heartbeats, indicating that their heart is in good health.

由於該心臟年齡表示該個體的至目前年齡的心跳總次數與幾歲的人的心跳總次數相同,因此心臟年齡與該個體的至目前年齡的心跳總次成正比,所以該個體的心臟年齡與至目前年齡的心跳總次數的關係可由以下公式所定義: Since the age of the heart indicates that the total number of heartbeats of the individual to the current age is the same as the total number of heartbeats of the elderly, the age of the heart is proportional to the total number of heartbeats of the individual to the current age, so the age of the individual's heart is The relationship between the total number of heartbeats to the current age can be defined by the following formula:

[通式1] 個體的心臟年齡:個體的目前年齡=個體至目前年齡的心跳總次數:個體所在的族群至目前年齡的平均心跳總次數 [Formula 1] The heart age of the individual: the current age of the individual = the total number of heartbeats from the individual to the current age: the total number of heartbeats from the ethnic group to the current age

而個體的平靜心率可以代表個體至目前年齡的心跳總次數(即個體的平靜心率×365日×24小時×60分鐘);個體所在的族群至目前年齡的 平均平靜心率可以代表個體所在的族群至目前年齡的平均心跳總次數(即個體所在的族群至目前年齡的平均平靜心率×365日×24小時×60分鐘),所以個體的平靜心率與至目前年齡的心跳總次數可由下公式所定義: The individual's calm heart rate can represent the total number of heartbeats of the individual to the current age (ie, the individual's calm heart rate × 365 days × 24 hours × 60 minutes); the individual's ethnic group to the current age The average resting heart rate can represent the total number of heartbeats from the ethnic group to the current age (ie, the average resting heart rate of the individual to the current age × 365 days × 24 hours × 60 minutes), so the individual's calm heart rate and current age The total number of heartbeats can be defined by the following formula:

[通式2] 個體至目前年齡的心跳總次數:個體所在的族群至目前年齡的平均心跳總次數=個體的平靜心率:個體所在的族群至目前年齡的平均平靜心率 [Formula 2] The total number of heartbeats from the individual to the current age: the total number of heartbeats from the ethnic group to the current age = the individual's calm heart rate: the average resting heart rate of the individual's ethnic group to the current age

當結合通式1與通式2可得到如下通式3: When the formula 1 and the formula 2 are combined, the following formula 3 can be obtained:

[通式3] 個體的心臟年齡:個體的目前年齡=個體至目前年齡的心跳總次數:個體所在的族群至目前年齡的平均心跳總次數=個體的平靜心率:個體所在的族群至目前年齡的平均平靜心率 [Formula 3] The heart age of the individual: the current age of the individual = the total number of heartbeats from the individual to the current age: the total number of heartbeats from the ethnic group to the current age = the individual's calm heart rate: the average resting heart rate of the individual's ethnic group to the current age

因此根據本發明的一實施例,在步驟S140中,該體的心臟年齡可以由以下公式所定義: Therefore, according to an embodiment of the present invention, in step S140, the heart age of the body can be defined by the following formula:

[通式4] 該心臟年齡=該個體的目前年齡×該個體的平靜心率÷該族群的該平均平靜心率 [Formula 4] The age of the heart = the current age of the individual x the resting heart rate of the individual ÷ the average resting heart rate of the individual

在步驟S160,中將該個體的目前年齡減去該個體的心臟年齡而獲得一差值,即為該心臟健康指數。當此指數為正數時,代表該個體的心臟健康狀態優於實際年齡的歲數,當此指數為負數時,代表該個體的心臟健康狀態劣於實際年齡的歲數。 In step S160, the difference between the current age of the individual and the heart age of the individual is obtained, which is the heart health index. When the index is positive, it represents that the individual's heart health is better than the actual age. When the index is negative, it means that the individual's heart health is inferior to the actual age.

本發明第二實施例: A second embodiment of the invention:

第2圖係根據本發明第二實施例中利用一個體的平靜心率計算心臟健康指數的方法的步驟示意圖。該利用一個體的平靜心率計算心臟健康指數的方法,包括以下步驟:(S200)測量該個體的一平靜心率;(S220)計算出該個體所在的一族群在該個體的目前年齡的一平均平靜心率;(240)根據該個體的平靜心率與該族群的該平均平靜心率的比率計算出該心臟剩餘年齡;(S260)將該個體的心臟剩餘年齡減去該個體的一剩餘年齡而獲得該心臟健康指數。 Fig. 2 is a schematic view showing the steps of a method for calculating a heart health index using a resting heart rate of a body in accordance with a second embodiment of the present invention. The method for calculating a heart health index using a calm heart rate of a body, comprising the steps of: (S200) measuring a calm heart rate of the individual; (S220) calculating an average calm of the current group of the individual at the individual age of the individual Heart rate; (240) calculating the remaining age of the heart based on the ratio of the individual's resting heart rate to the average resting heart rate of the ethnic group; (S260) subtracting the remaining age of the individual from the remaining age of the individual to obtain the heart Health index.

本發明第二實施例的步驟S200與步驟S220與本發明第一實施例的步驟S100與步驟S120相同。 Step S200 and step S220 of the second embodiment of the present invention are the same as steps S100 and S120 of the first embodiment of the present invention.

在步驟S240中,根據該個體的平靜心率與該族群的該平均平靜心率的比率計算出一心臟剩餘年齡。在解釋此步驟前先介紹剩餘年齡的概念。一個體的剩餘年齡為該個體所在的該族群的一平均壽命減去該個體的目前年齡,即表示該個體預估可以再存活幾年。而一個體的心臟剩餘年齡為該個體所在的該族群的一平均壽命減去該個體的心臟年齡,表示該個體的心臟預估可以再正常運作幾年。舉例而言,當一台灣男性60歲,所測得其心臟年齡為55歲,而台灣男性的平均壽命為75歲,則其剩餘年齡為15年,而心臟剩餘年齡為20年。 In step S240, a remaining age of the heart is calculated based on the ratio of the resting heart rate of the individual to the average resting heart rate of the ethnic group. Introduce the concept of remaining age before explaining this step. The remaining age of a subject is the average life of the individual in which the individual is located minus the current age of the individual, meaning that the individual is expected to survive for several more years. The remaining age of the heart of a subject is the average life of the individual in which the individual is located minus the age of the individual's heart, indicating that the individual's cardiac estimate can be operated for several more years. For example, when a Taiwanese male is 60 years old and has a heart age of 55 years and a Taiwanese male has an average life expectancy of 75 years, the remaining age is 15 years and the remaining age of the heart is 20 years.

由於該個體的至目前年齡的心跳總次數越多,則該心臟剩餘年齡越少。因此該心臟剩餘年齡與該個體的至目前年齡的心跳總次大致成反比,所以該個體的心臟剩餘年齡與至目前年齡的心跳總次數的關係可由以下公式所定義: Since the total number of heartbeats of the individual to the current age is greater, the remaining age of the heart is less. Therefore, the remaining age of the heart is roughly inversely proportional to the total number of heartbeats of the individual to the current age, so the relationship between the remaining age of the individual's heart and the total number of heartbeats to the current age can be defined by the following formula:

[通式5] 個體的剩餘年齡:個體的心臟剩餘年齡=個體至目前年齡的心跳總次數:個體所在的族群至目前年齡的平均心跳總次數 [Formula 5] Remaining age of the individual: the remaining age of the individual's heart = total number of heartbeats from the individual to the current age: the total number of heartbeats from the ethnic group to the current age

而個體的平靜心率可以代表個體至目前年齡的心跳總次數(即個體的平靜心率×365日×24小時×60分鐘);個體所在的族群至目前年齡的平均平靜心率可以代表個體所在的族群至目前年齡的平均心跳總次數(即個體所在的族群至目前年齡的平均平靜心率×365日×24小時×60分鐘),所以個體的平靜心率與至目前年齡的心跳總次數可由下公式所定義: The individual's calm heart rate can represent the total number of heartbeats of the individual to the current age (ie, the individual's calm heart rate × 365 days × 24 hours × 60 minutes); the average resting heart rate of the individual's ethnic group to the current age can represent the individual's ethnic group to The average number of heartbeats of the current age (ie, the average resting heart rate of the individual to the current age × 365 days × 24 hours × 60 minutes), so the individual's calm heart rate and the total number of heartbeats to the current age can be defined by the following formula:

[通式6] 個體至目前年齡的心跳總次數:個體所在的族群至目前年齡的平均心跳總次數=個體的平靜心率:個體所在的族群至目前年齡的平均平靜心率 [Formula 6] The total number of heartbeats from the individual to the current age: the total number of heartbeats from the ethnic group to the current age = the individual's calm heart rate: the average resting heart rate of the individual's ethnic group to the current age

當結合通式5與通式6可得到如下通式7: When the formula 5 and the formula 6 are combined, the following formula 7 can be obtained:

[通式7] 個體的剩餘年齡:個體的心臟剩餘年齡=個體至目前年齡的心跳總次數:個體所在的族群至目前年齡的平均心跳總次數=個體的平靜心率:個體所在的族群至目前年齡的平均平靜心率 [Formula 7] Remaining age of the individual: the remaining age of the individual's heart = total number of heartbeats from the individual to the current age: the total number of heartbeats from the ethnic group to the current age = the individual's calm heart rate: the average resting heart rate of the individual's ethnic group to the current age

因此根據本發明的另一實施例,在步驟240中,該個體的心臟年齡可以由以下公式所定義: Thus in accordance with another embodiment of the present invention, in step 240, the individual's heart age can be defined by the following formula:

[通式8] 該心臟剩餘年齡=該個體的一剩餘年齡×該族群的該平均平靜心率÷該個體的平靜心率 [Formula 8] The remaining age of the heart = a remaining age of the individual x the average resting heart rate of the group 平静 the individual's calm heart rate

在步驟S260中,將該個體的心臟剩餘年齡減去該個體的一 剩餘年齡而獲得一差值,即為該心臟健康指數。當此指數為正數時,代表該個體的心臟健康狀態優於實際年齡的歲數,當此指數為負數時,代表該個體的心臟健康狀態劣於實際年齡的歲數。 In step S260, the remaining age of the individual's heart is subtracted from the individual's A difference is obtained for the remaining age, which is the heart health index. When the index is positive, it represents that the individual's heart health is better than the actual age. When the index is negative, it means that the individual's heart health is inferior to the actual age.

本發明第二實施例的一示例: An example of a second embodiment of the present invention:

在步驟S200中,一位1957年3月28日出生的台灣男性在2016年3月28日測量其平靜心率為76bpm。 In step S200, a Taiwanese male born on March 28, 1957 measured his resting heart rate at 76 bpm on March 28, 2016.

在步驟S220中,該男性的年齡為59歲,計算出在台灣59歲男性的平均平靜心率為73.5bpm。 In step S220, the male is 59 years old, and the average resting heart rate of a 59-year-old male in Taiwan is calculated to be 73.5 bpm.

在步驟S240中,根據步驟S200所測得的平靜心率與根據步驟S220所計算出族群平靜心率,以通式4計算出該男性的心臟剩餘年齡:該心臟剩餘年齡=該個體的一剩餘年齡×該族群的該平均平靜心率÷該個體的平靜心率=(75-59)×73.5÷76=16×73.5÷76=15.47年 In step S240, according to the calm heart rate measured in step S200 and the ethnic group resting heart rate calculated according to step S220, the remaining cardiac age of the male is calculated by the formula 4: the remaining age of the heart = a remaining age of the individual × The average resting heart rate of the group 平静 the individual's calm heart rate = (75-59) × 73.5 ÷ 76 = 16 × 73.5 ÷ 76 = 15.47 years

在步驟S260中,以該個體的心臟剩餘年齡減去其剩餘年齡=15.47-16=-0.53年,即代表該男性的心臟劣於實際年齡的歲數。 In step S260, the remaining age of the individual's heart is subtracted from its remaining age = 15.47-16 = -0.53 years, which is the age at which the male's heart is inferior to the actual age.
