Heart diseases, stroke, and other complications are mainly due to hypertensive action. Apple Watch has a Hypertension Notification, which does not measure blood pressure directly, but infers a possible high blood pressure warning based on heart rate recordings in the last 30 days instead. These are yet to be made public for the Pixel Watch; they are under research and testing at the moment.
What Next for the Google Pixel Watch?
Google and Fitbit have started dispensing two pretty special experimental features with the Pixel Watch:
The app "Unusual Trend Detection" signals any health metrics by their nature that differ from an individual's typical data set.
Another project called Hypertension Study is recruiting 10,000 U.S. users to assess high blood pressure readings potentially recorded with the Google Pixel Watch and a cuff that monitors blood pressure.
Thus, the highly anticipated hypertension alert might become something of future fame for the Pixel Watch, but it seems far from a common release to end users.
High Hypothetical Functioning
1. It obtains heart rate data from the sensors within the Google Pixel Watch.
2. Subjective records are largely processed by AI algorithms concerning information (with intervals of 30 days or thereabouts).
3. An alert of a risk is sent when active detection of high blood pressure in the user occurs: the remark "High blood pressure is likely."
4. The user is further advised by the system to go for the measurement of blood pressure through a professional method (with a cuff) and consult a doctor.
Considerations, Advantages, and Limitations
Such kinds of alerting functionalities are not diagnostic: they indicate a risk of such conditioning.
It is not present yet for use on the Google Pixel Watch, so there might be some variation depending on the country or model.
User should routinely take their blood pressure measures and visit a doctor because it's not perfectly accurate as a medical device.
These features would vary across countries, depending on brand-model, sensor hardware, and legal approvals.
Conclusion
The alert system will soon be similar to Apple's alert system in being made available to warn users about a probable case of hypertension or high blood pressure. It is not out yet to be made available to all users, and it is still being researched are being nd trials conducted. For those interested in that feature, they may want to join the Lenovo Labs program for the Pixel Watch or just keep an eye on updates.
