#2 Today’s Medical Development’s Best of 2021: Wearable blood pressure monitoring technology

Monitoring, understanding, and gaining a clear picture of blood pressure levels is critical for individuals’ current and future health, and soon, people may be able to keep track of these measurements daily from their finger or wrist.

For the past decade, biometric technology company Valencell has been developing innovative sensor technologies for wearables and hearables to enable impactful health outcomes. Most recently, their researchers have cultivated a calibration-free, cuffless blood pressure (BP) technology that can be used in a range of devices including smartwatches, fitness bands, patches, and pulse oximeter finger clips to provide accurate readings. The solution only requires three key parameters – a photoplethysmography (PPG) signal, motion signal, and static biometrics (height, weight, age, gender).
