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.
