1) Cardiac or A heart rate monitor is a device that allows a user to measure his or her heart rate in real time. It usually consists of two elements: a chest strap transmitter and a wrist receiver (which usually doubles as a watch). Strapless heart rate monitors are available as well, but lack some of the functionality of the original design. Advanced models additionally measure heart rate variability to assess a user's fitness.
The heart rate monitor was invented by the Australian physicist, Robert Treffene[citation needed]. He appeared on the television show The New Inventors with his device, which was made with swimmers in mind.
The first EKG accurate wireless heart rate monitor was invented by Polar Electro Oy in 1977 as a training tool for the Finnish National Cross Country Ski Team. The concept of "intensity training" by heart rate swept the athletic world in the eighties. By the 1990's individuals were looking to heart rate monitors not only for performance training needs, but also for achieving everyday fitness goals. Today, the same concept of heart rate training is being used by world-class athletes as well as everyday people.[1]
The chest strap has electrodes in contact with the skin to monitor the electrical voltages in the heart (see electrocardiography for more details). When a heart beat is detected a radio signal is sent out which the receiver uses to determine the current heart rate. More expensive monitors send a unique coded signal from the chest strap, and this prevents a user's wrist receiver from receiving signals from other nearby transmitters ("cross-talk.")
There are a wide number of receiver designs, with all sorts of advanced features. These include average heart rate over exercise period, time in a specific heart rate zone, calories burned, and detailed logging that can be downloaded to a computer.

Heart rate monitor. Connected to the patient and kept bedside so that the nurse can be alerted if a problem needs her attention. The changing pattern of beeps alerts them.

It's a heart monitor and normally they don't do any beeping unless it's an unusual rhythm, too fast, too slow, or not there! Or I should say that's the only time they are SUPPOSED to beep! lol

The little graph of your heart impulses is called an EKG, and the machine that does that is an EKG machine, but I think "heart rate monitor" is the more appropriate answer, here.
