Hello! The standard heart rate can vary from person to person, depending on age, physical condition, gender, etc. For people 18 years of age and older, a normal resting heart rate ranges from 60 - 100 beats/min please. If it is lower or higher than that, it means the person has bradycardia or tachycardia.
So, the answer to the question of 62 years old, is the pulse 82 times/minute fast? This is not fast, this is a normal heart rate.
Thank you for your question to Vinmec Health System. Best regards!
