Normal Results

For resting heart rate:

  • Newborn infants: 100 - 160 beats per minute
  • Children 1 to 10 years: 70 - 120 beats per minute
  • Children over 10 and adults (including seniors): 60 - 100 beats per minute
  • Well-trained athletes: 40 - 60 beats per minute

What Abnormal Results Mean

Resting heart rates that are consistently high (tachycardia) may indicate a problem, and you should consult a health care provider. Discuss resting heart rates that are below the normal values (bradycardia) with your health care provider.

Also, discuss a pulse that is very firm (bounding pulse) and that lasts for more than a few minutes with your health care provider. An irregular pulse can also indicate a problem.

A pulse that is hard to feel may indicate blockages in the artery. These blockages are common in people with Diabetes or atherosclerosis from high cholesterol. Your health care provider may order a test known as a Doppler study to evaluate this potentially serious situation.
