Why the study?

The real-world validity of the Polar Verity Sense for heart rate monitoring in school settings among children and adolescents was yet to be determined.

Does the Polar Verity Sense armband accurately measure heart rate compared to the Polar H10 chest strap in adolescents during school-based high-intensity interval training?

Comparison

Design

Validation study

Key result

The Polar Verity Sense armband demonstrated very strong within-participant correlation (r = 0.93, p < 0.001) with the Polar H10 chest strap for heart rate monitoring during HIIT in adolescents.

Cross-Sectional (n=39)

Structured PICO

Does the Polar Verity Sense armband accurately measure heart rate compared to the Polar H10 chest strap in adolescents during school-based high-intensity interval training?

P
Population
39 adolescents (mean age 12.2 years, 36% female) participating in a 6-minute resistance-based high-intensity interval training session.
E
Exposure
Polar Verity Sense (PVS) armband for heart rate monitoring
C
Comparator
Polar H10 chest strap (criterion measure)
O
Outcome
Heart rate measurement validity (assessed via within-participant correlation, mean absolute error, mean absolute percentage error, and Bland-Altman plots)surrogate

Main Result

Effect estimate: r = 0.93

p-value: p=< .001

The Polar Verity Sense armband provides valid heart rate measurements compared to a traditional chest strap during high-intensity interval training in adolescents, offering a more practical monitoring tool.

Cite This Study

Liu et al. (2025) reported a cross-sectional. Polar Verity Sense (PVS) vs. Polar H10 was evaluated on within-participant correlation of heart rate (r = 0.93, p=< .001). The Polar Verity Sense armband demonstrated very strong within-participant correlation (r = 0.93, p < 0.001) with the Polar H10 chest strap for heart rate monitoring during HIIT in adolescents.
