HR from wrist sensor dropping out particularly during intervals

 Hi, I've had my vivoactive 4 for 3 years and very recently HR drops out during my runs. It seems particularly prevalent during intervals runs with big changes in pace. Anyone else had the same or an idea as to why it could happen? After 3 years of it not happening it just seems a bit strange it's started happening recently. Considering a new strap to see if that could be a factor?
