Why heart rate increases during sleep. When you stop breathing while you sleep your heart rate drops and then your involuntary reflexes make you startle into a micro-arousal which causes your heart rate to accelerate quickly says The National Sleep Foundation. In addition to increasing blood pressure this rapid decrease and increase in heart rate leads to an irregular heart rhythm or cardiac arrhythmia. Many blood pressure and asthma medications can lead to a racing heart rate especially if they are taken at night.
Other substances that increase heart rate. Some of the most common causes of increased heart rate – whether awake or asleep – are caffeine energy drinks alcohol and some medications such as those found in some asthma inhalers and cold and flu drugs that contain pseudoephedrine says the CNN Health website. All of these substances are classed as stimulants which cause your heart rate to increase.

An increase in your resting heart rate over time may be a signal of heart trouble ahead. Your heart rate changes from minute to minute. It depends on whether you are standing up or lying down moving around or sitting still stressed or relaxed.
During sleep both your heart rate and your blood pressure go down. Most adults need at least seven hours of sleep to allow the body to rest and repair. The CDC says that lack of sleep may raise your risk for heart disease heart attack and stroke.
Sinus tachycardia occurs when the heart rate increases due to expected reasons such as during exercise if a person is feeling anxious or during periods of dehydration. When your blood vessels expand signals are sent to your brain to increase your heart rate and pump more blood to the inflamed regions. Your heart rate increases while youre awake and while you sleep and generally continues until your symptoms improve.
Wearables track this elevated rate which is what you can see in your Cardiogram data. If this reading persists try changing your Heart Rate setting from Auto which means the heart rate tracker is usually active when youre moving to On which means the heart rate tracker is always active.

There are at least five stages of sleep and sleeping heart rate can vary throughout each of the sleep stages. The first four stages of sleep generally categorized as sleep stages one through four occur as the body relaxes more and more deeply. This process of physiological relaxation accounts for about 80 percent of most peoples sleep time.
