Cuffless Blood Pressure Monitor Gets European Approval

A recent Medgadget article discussed the long-awaited European approval of a cuffless blood pressure monitor from Swiss-based Aktiia. The device looks a lot like a watch, and monitors the wearer’s blood pressure 24/7. The kit also comes with access to a smartphone app that gathers and stores blood pressure data, providing insights into how different variables such as diet, exercise, and medications affect blood pressure.
