This study identified that the test-retest reliability of the PVM was comparable at low and high exercise intensities; however, it revealed a poor to good test-retest reliability at moderate intensities. The PVM should not be used in a clinical setting where monitoring of an accurate HR is crucial to the patients' safety.
