Technically, any value > 0 is ‘closer to arrythmia’, but yeah that is a pretty high value. 60 bpm == 1 beat per second (if everything is perfect), so if the HRV is 850 ms and their heart rate is around 60 bpm that is what - 85% variation?

If that is ‘consistent’, I’m not even sure what that EKG would even look like, but ‘regular’ seems unlikely. I’m honestly not even actually sure what ‘beat’ would mean when it’s > 50% variation.
