Blood Pressure-Monitoring Apps

The QardioApp Helps Users Record and Monitor Their Blood Pressure

— May 9, 2016 — Tech
Qardio recently debuted a mobile app called QardioApp, which helps users record and monitor their blood pressure at home. While most people know that they should keep an eye on their blood pressure, the only real way to do so is to go to the doctor or the pharmacy. Now there is a way for consumers to check their blood pressure regularly without the need to even leave the house.

The QardioArm and QardioApp work in conjunction to help users monitor their blood pressure. While the QardioArm has been available for some time, the new app makes it easier than ever for consumers to monitor their health. Users simply connect the QardioArm to the app via Bluetooth and they will receive detailed information about their blood pressure, heart health and weight management. The app can even alert users to important changes such as an irregular heartbeat. Users can then compare this information over time and create reminders for checking their blood pressure regularly.

As baby boomers continue to age, there will be a growing demand for digital devices and wearable technology that allows consumers to monitor their health at home.
Trend Themes
1. At Home Blood-pressure Monitoring - Opportunity for tech and health companies to develop more accessible and user-friendly devices and apps for consumers to monitor their blood pressure without leaving their homes.
2. Connected Health Apps - Digital health platforms have significant growth potential, offering real-time data to consumers and focusing on preventative care for aging populations.
3. Telemedicine - Opportunity for health providers to offer remote monitoring services and consultations for patients with chronic conditions such as hypertension.
Industry Implications
1. Healthcare - There is a growing need for healthcare providers, insurers, and pharmaceutical companies to embrace digital health tools and connected devices to provide better care to patients.
2. Wearable Technology - The rise in wearable technology and connected devices offers potential for more accessible and user-friendly blood pressure monitors for consumers.
3. Mobile Health Apps - Mobile health apps offer real-time data and analytics, and have significant potential for preventative care to help people manage their health conditions before they become serious.
