The Swiss HealthTech specializing in cuffless blood pressure monitoring technology, today announced the launch of its continuous blood pressure monitoring bracelet in Canada. The Health Canada-approved medical device represents a significant advancement in the measurement of blood pressure to aid in managing hypertension.
The precision monitoring device can take readings automatically whether users are awake or asleep, providing up to 800 measurements a month to understand what impacts blood pressure. The technology uses advanced optical sensors and proprietary algorithms to measure blood pressure through Optical Blood Pressure Monitoring (OBPM), analyzing subtle changes in the diameter of arteries with each heartbeat.
Traditional blood pressure cuff monitoring can be intrusive and often lead to incomplete or inaccurate readings due to factors like white coat syndrome, which affects up to 30% of patients. The bracelet provides a much more complete picture of a user's blood pressure patterns, enabling better-informed healthcare decisions and improved outcomes.
