Validating Star-Oddi heart rate and acceleration data storage tags for use in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
Abstract Background Data storage tags (DSTs) record and store information about animals and their environment, and can provide important data relevant to fish culture, ecology and conservation. A DST has recently been developed that records heart rate (fH), electrocardiograms (ECGs), tri-axial accel...

The quality index (QI) assigned to ECG recordings (where QI0 means very good quality, and QI1, QI2 and QI3 are of reduced quality) did not change significantly with increasing swimming speed (QI0 ~ 60–80%). However, we found that the accuracy of the tag algorithm in estimating fH from ECGs was reduced when QI>0. Diurnal patterns of fH and EA were evident from the time the salmon were placed in the tank. Heart rate appeared to stabilize by ~ 4 days post-surgery in the first experiment, but extended holding showed that fH declined for 2–3 weeks.
