There are plenty of smartwatches available on the market capable of tracking your calories, steps and sleep patterns.

Priced at just $199 and currently offering a considerable saving off the recommended retail price of $449. The blood pressure smartwatch provides an all-in-one health management system that allows you to quickly and easily monitor your blood pressure directly from your wrist whenever you wish with the simple press of a button.
2 minute setup
I set up the wearable blood pressure monitor easily straight out-of-the-box and within just a few minutes I could take my very first blood pressure reading. Simply download the companion application available for both iOS or Android and load it on your phone or tablet. Enable the Bluetooth permissions on your device to make a connection from your phone to the smartwatch. Once enabled, simply register your email address and enter your height and weight and you are ready to take your first reading.
Blood Pressure Smartwatch
Most people are more accustomed to having their blood pressure readings taken using an arm cuff or similar device. The engineers at YHE have developed a unique strap and smartwatch capable of taking blood pressure readings and monitoring your health directly from your wrist.
The unique smartwatch strap automatically inflates when taking a blood pressure reading to ensure medical grade accuracy thanks to its patented technology. In around 30 seconds, the YHE BP Doctor Pro had inflated its strap and started taking a reading, provided me with a blood pressure reading which it then transferred and logged to the smartwatch application for reference and future monitoring. The unique blood pressure strap has been designed to fit wrists of a circumference from 13.5 to 22cm or 5.3 to 8.7 inches and it weighs just 60g.
When measuring your heart rate for best results, the engineers at YHE BP Doctor Pro request you keep your smartwatch in line with your heart when a test is in progress. We can do this in two different ways. Either by placing your arm across your chest to bring the Blood Pressure Smartwatch in line with your heart or simply raising your arm slightly when sitting at a table using the rigid box packaging of the YHE BP Doctor Pro or by some other means of raising your wrist a few inches to align with your heart as you sit comfortably at a table.
Wearable fitness monitor
Unfortunately, because of the current daily pressures of the world we live in, hypertension among young people is a common element affecting 1 in 8 adults between the ages of 20 and 40 years.
