Heart rate and heart rhythm are related, but they tell us different things about cardiovascular health.

Heart rate measures how fast the heart is beating, while heart rhythm reflects how regularly those beats occur. Two people can have the same heart rate while experiencing very different heart rhythms.

That matters because atrial fibrillation (AFib) is an irregular heart rhythm that can sometimes occur even when your heart rate seems normal or with no noticeable symptoms at all.

Select OMRON blood pressure monitors automatically screen for possible AFib during every blood pressure measurement, helping you stay more informed about your heart health from home.

This AFib Awareness Month, don’t just know your numbers. Know your rhythm.
