Aktiia

- afaik the only continuous blood pressure in a wrist band, clinically verified
- pretty app, easy to use and calibrate with the cuff
- good battery life (about 2 weeks)

- need to trigger sync manually in the app
- can't trigger measurement by the band manually e.g. to understand blood pressure after workout

- reduce blood pressure overall

Continuous blood pressure measuring device that works well, especially if you need to closely monitor your blood pressure.
One time investment makes it very affordable

I wished they would measure more often to get greater precision

continuous blood pressure measuring

- Continuous blood pressure measuring device (not many devices nor wearables can do this currently accurately)
- The device is attached to a bracelet and measures blood pressure around 12 times per day with no need to inflate a blood pressure cuff at the upper arm
- CE medical product with lots of research and medical support behind it
(Systolic blood pressure accuracy: 0.45 ± 7.75 mmHg & Diastolic blood pressure accuracy: 0.38 ± 6.86 mmHg)
- Great product design incl. packaging and nice UX within the app
- Easy setup and synchronization process (needs to be calibrated with a cuff which is included in the delivery)
- Can be very helpful with hypertension and lifestyle changes + medication calibration (still needs additional medical guidance!)
- Not too expensive

- Needs to be synchronized regularly with a cuff (ca. every 30 days)
- If you spend some days & nights with the measurement and identify that your blood levels are in range there is not too much additional insights after that

Since measuring blood pressure regularly with a cuff can be quite challenging I wanted to have a device to continuously measure my blood pressure (similar to continuous glucose monitoring). I found Aktiia and was satisfied with the experience.
