I am a nurse in the Cardiology ward. Wrist BP devices are very inacurate. A BP device actively stops the blood in your arm and by the ammount of pressure needed it determines the Systolic value (in mmHg) then slowly releases the preasure to see when is the first and last hit it can register and gives the Diastolic value. A wrist BP is a more compact version of a big BP, it can and never will be able to bring the necessary perfomance needed to determin the exact BP value.
I came across this video researching the accuracy of the ECG on the watch (I have the 4 series of this watch). The only thing I could find is articles referencing Samsung's official testing (which, obviously shouldn't trust a company based study). I was wondering your thoughts on its accuracy as a cardiologist. Samsung's manual says to not reference it for medical reasons (for obvious reasons) but, in such case as an emergency, how accurate would it be? Reports do say the Samsung ECG is FDA approved apparently.
@@abrarnewaz8912 not its not it supposed to be a rough guide for when you out an about thats way they want you to calibrate it with a real one even all the warnings say its not a replacement for a real one or a doctors advice.
It may be useful to read into how this is determined by a device rather than completely write it off. I also work in Neuro surgery. Remember Samsung have a huge hand in electro physiology, And they make medical devices. Making them a bit ahead of the other companies. Its not perfect ni tech is hence the need for calibration of medical devices in medical institutions
Very good information. Well, I am a left hand user and have the watch on the right. After reading that the results on left arm are more accurate I changed. Thank you.👍
I would have been interested to see after calibration you doing something like standing up and running on the spot or something. Then comparing the cuff reading to the watch. It would have been a better indicator for accuracy. As x3 resting calibration and x1 measurement whilst also at rest. 👍
Samsung said that you shouldn’t use it after sports for a certain time as it won’t measure correctly. They also have a huge list for what is not working with it
Btw Huawei Watch D is CE certified and has medically certified electrocardiogram (ECG) function and also has a super cool and accurate blood pressure monitoring!

Thanks for doing a very clear video. I'm in the UK and have the Pro 5 and S23 Ultra. I use the Pro 5 BP readings as an estimate only as I have high BP and medication to control it. @Mike Tech your BP looks a bit high so might be worth have a free BP check at the Pharmacy?
The last reading on the watch, after the setting up process, should have been taken on a different day. Otherwise is pretty much an estimation of previous measurements rather than a new fresh reading. In terms of ECG, is nothing more than discarding an Atrial Fibrilation, only one of hundreds of disorders that can be found on a ECG.
Thanks for putting up this video. I use a cuff to measure my pressure regularly due to having high blood pressure and taking tablets to lower this. I don't understand how this can work on the watch as the cuff squeezes your arm quite hard to measure systolic and diastolic pressures. What is the watch measuring? I like the sound of the feature but it does look just like a gimmick to me. Despite this I may still buy one for other features.
To put it simply, the watch is measuring the time intervals between the spikes and the intensity of the spikes. They then compare this data to the calibrated reading as through such a method, they could get a relative reading (BP change by how much) but would need an initially calibrated reading to act as a reference to give you a definite answer.
Few observations/flaws 1. BP differences between both limbs is common but not by a lot 2.

you should 1x in week new calibrate..and what watch ever u use..none of this messure correct 100 %...so its a funny feature but better is to use a blood pressure monitor for arm...near hand is never 100 % right..

This watch from 3 days ago is about to get sent back to Galaxy. I don't see any option with it giving me to swipe screen to a BP monitor. Where are you getting that from??? Samsung knocked it off shelf of the watch, so to speak ??

Thanks for watching.
Oh man Samsung disabled this feature in Canada again I believe

What the! Ignore the comments mate, your B.P is fine
how long does the battery last
So far I have gone 3.5 days to 8% before charging again. I will do a battery test after a few more days of usage. Thanks for watching
@@Mike.Tech. thank you
i dont see blood pressure option on my w5.. maybe its not available in US version
USA versions dont have BP even.
It may not met the us regulations
It's there but disabled due to US regulations. Just like the Galaxy Watch 4
I'll save someone the hour on with support...this feature is not available in the US.
so we need a blood pressure monitor to setup?
Yeah
What's the point of a watch there when you can just measure BP with an external monitor?
3:25 The cuff was supposed to be on your other arm.
how many cm is your wrist circumference?
16cm
I don't see an option for Blood Pressure reading anywhere on my watch5 :(
depends on your region
