MVO2 represents the volume of oxygen consumed by the heart and therefore is not inversely proportional to heart rate but directly proportional. The greater the heart rate the greater work (stress) put on the heart and thus an increase in myocardial oxygen demand. An approximated equation for MVO2 is: MVO2~HR*Systolic blood pressure. Coronary artery flow on the the other hand is inversely related to HR because coronary flow takes place during diastole and because an increase in heart rate decrease diastolic time coronary flow is reduced.

Can it kill if your heart rate goes up when you are sick?

If your heart rate increases because of adrenaline (related to your emotional state) that is unlikely to kill you. There are some conditions, particularly ventricular fibrillation, in which increased heart rate can kill you, but in most forms of sickness, increased heart rate is not dangerous.


How do you find your MHR?

You can estimate your maximum heart rate based on your age. To estimate your maximum age-related heart rate, subtract your age from 220. For example, for a 50-year-old person, the estimated maximum age-related heart rate would be calculated as 220 – 50 years = 170 beats per minute (bpm).

Why do you have a heart rate?

You have a heart. It beats periodically. The rate at which it does so is your heart rate. If you don't have a heart rate, then your heart isn't beating, meaning you're dead or dying.
