AHA警告说,诊断高血压时,可穿戴的无压血压缺乏准确性。
Cuffless blood pressure wearables lack accuracy for diagnosing hypertension, the AHA warns.
无袖手表和戒指等无袖手表的血压可穿戴设备是常用的持续监测工具, 但美国心脏协会警告说, 由于皮肤色调,手臂位置和校准等因素的变化, 它们对诊断或管理高血压的准确性不足.
Cuffless blood pressure wearables like smartwatches and rings are popular for continuous monitoring, but the American Heart Association warns they’re not accurate enough for diagnosing or managing hypertension due to variability from factors like skin tone, arm position, and calibration.
尽管经林业发展局批准,但许多装置缺乏严格的验证,全球有80%的装置未经测试。
Despite FDA clearance, many devices lack rigorous validation, with up to 80% globally untested.
AHA敦促在相信这些工具可以临床使用之前进行更多的研究和标准化测试,特别是因为近一半的美国成年人有高血压,这是心脏病、中风和痴呆症的主要风险。
The AHA urges more research and standardized testing before these tools can be trusted for clinical use, especially as nearly half of U.S. adults have high blood pressure, a major risk for heart disease, stroke, and dementia.
