Adults whose resting heart rate follows an atypical pattern as they age may face a greater risk for developing heart failure or dying from any cause than people whose heart rates follow a normal trajectory, new research suggests.
People whose heart rates consistently increased over more than two decades – whether slightly or substantially – were more likely to die or develop heart failure than those whose resting heart rate remained stable or declined slightly, researchers found.
