Depends: If the pt has palpitations or feels poorly then a holter and blood work are in order. Maybe even an echo. But if pts fine then probably its fine. Limit caffine and other stimulants. Pts who are poorly conditoned tend to run on the higher end of normal as well.

My resting pulse rate has been 95 to 100 beats per minute for the last few days. I've had heart tests with a cardiologist about a year ago and all was fine. Can stress and anxiety cause that?
