Abstract: Heart rate monitoring plays a key in assisting numerous cardiac diseases. Heart rate devices improve the quality of patient care and able to perform continuous heart rate monitoring during physical activities and fitness tracking. This review paper discusses the effects of COVID-19 on heart rate, compares different heart rate measurement methods, and discuss the key signal processing techniques. Also propose a new system which can be used for the COVID-19 patients for continuous monitoring of heart rate. The proposed system offers wireless wristband monitoring of heart rate through the internet of things. The proposed concept is executed with the ESP8266 WIFI module, Arduino controller, and the real-time monitoring can be visualised by the Thing speak account which also monitors the tachycardia bradycardia condition of the heart. Thus, the proposed framework is proved to be more reliable for Heart rate monitoring during physical activity of high intensity and for fitness tracking.
