It’s Time to Watch Your Health on the Samsung Galaxy Watch6
You're out for your morning jog, soaking up the early morning sun and feeling the rhythm of your steps as they hit the track, matching the beat of your favourite songs. Strapped to your wrist is your brand new Galaxy Smartwatch, which is doing more than just keeping tabs on the time and your exercise goals. This smart device also monitors your heart's vitals — heart rate, blood pressure levels and ECG.
The Samsung Galaxy Watch6 is a complete health management package with an array of advanced features such as blood pressure monitoring and electrocardiograms (ECG), which are being introduced for the first time in India.
Using the Samsung Health Monitor App, which has received regulatory clearances from India's Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation, you can measure your BP and take an ECG. The Galaxy Watch6 comes with a built-in Photoplethysmogram (PPG) sensor, which periodically measures your heart rate and heart rhythm and sends out an alert the moment it senses that the heart rate is too high or too low.
Similarly, it has also been designed to send out a notification if it detects an irregular heart rhythm, along with a prompt ECG to look at your heart health in more detail. This is enabled by sensors in the watch that are placed on the skin to detect the electrical signals produced by your heart each time it beats. The information collected is recorded on a graph, which can be recorded on the watch and shared with your health practitioner.
Another great preventive feature in the new watch is BP monitoring. You can configure this smartwatch to check your blood pressure at a fixed time each day right from your wrist, taking away the need to carry a bulky BP monitor or any other equipment. This latest edition of the Galaxy Watch has a built-in PPG sensor inside, which can record systolic and diastolic pressure, as well as pulse rate, and record it in the Samsung Health Monitor app for ready reference.
