Huawei launches the first watch that monitors your blood pressure 24/7
Huawei introduces the first watch capable of monitoring your blood pressure 24/7, an innovative solution for cardiovascular health care.
From the first heartbeat,
the heart is a vital organ that works tirelessly to keep us alive. It pumps oxygen-rich blood and nutrients throughout the body, enabling us to grow, move, and enjoy our lives.However, cardiovascular diseases have become the leading cause of death worldwide, affecting millions of people each year.
Cardiovascular Diseases.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), cardiovascular diseases are responsible for approximately 17 million deaths annually worldwide.
In Colombia, according to data from DANE, these diseases became the leading cause of mortality in 2024 and early 2025, representing 17% of the 273,772 recorded deaths in the country.
This alarming figure underscores the importance of providing adequate care for the heart, a vital organ directly connected to the brain, lungs, and muscles.
Technological Innovation in Health.
To preserve heart health, various methods exist, such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, and continuous medical monitoring.
While regular medical consultations are essential, today there are also devices that allow for continuous heart condition monitoring.
One such device is the Huawei Watch D2, a smartwatch that offers continuous monitoring of blood pressure levels, allowing people to maintain control over their health at all times, whether while working, exercising, resting, or sleeping.
Accurate 24/7 Monitoring.
The device is the first smartwatch on the market to provide Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM) and is certified by doctors and international institutions, such as the European Society of Hypertension and the ISO 2018 standard.
This device constantly measures pulse rate, as well as systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP), two crucial indicators for assessing cardiovascular health.
The watch provides daily reports and alerts to identify early inconsistencies in heart function, enabling users to consult with a doctor and begin appropriate treatment.
This feature is made possible by a software integrated into a dense mechanical airbag, measuring just 26.5 mm, which emulates the biological pattern of shark skin.
Additionally, it integrates microscopic grooves that reduce friction and irritation, making it resistant to sweat and gentle on the skin.
Comprehensive Health Through Exercise.
The smartwatch also features a specialized sensor module for performing electrocardiograms, which allows for the analysis of the heart’s waveforms in just 30 seconds through an electrode positioned on the bottom button.
This capability enables the watch to emit alerts and daily reports to identify any irregularities in heart rhythm.
Moreover, it is compatible with 80 training modes, such as running, cycling, boxing, and football, among others. Thanks to these options, the device monitors physical condition during workouts, recording data on heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, and calories burned.
The Activity Rings feature also helps users stay active throughout the day by tracking calories burned, exercise time, and the number of times they stand up.
Finally, the watch’s battery lasts up to six days with fast charging, ensuring that health monitoring never stops.
