October 24, 2024, SEOUL, South Korea /PRNewswire — The International Society of Hypertension (ISH) has acknowledged Sky Labs’ CART BP, a cutting-edge blood pressure monitor, for its remarkable accuracy in the daytime and nighttime readings. The promise of cuffless blood pressure technology to revolutionize hypertension diagnosis and treatment is highlighted by this acknowledgment, which was prominently featured in an official position paper headed by Professor Kazuomi Kario of Jichi Medical University in Japan.

CART BP, the first ring-shaped, cuffless gadget for 24-hour blood pressure monitoring, was created by South Korean health tech startup Sky Labs. CART BP provides more consistent photoplethysmography (PPG) signals than traditional smartwatches, guaranteeing exact blood flow readings via the finger. Due to wrist size and sensor placement differences, wrist-based devices frequently have accuracy issues. On the other hand, CART BP greatly increases measuring accuracy by providing a variety of ring sizes for a personalized fit. Clinical experiments have thoroughly verified its accuracy.
Prominent groups like the World Hypertension League (WHL), the European Society of Hypertension (ESH), the Asian Pacific Society of Hypertension (APSH), and the Latin American Society of Hypertension (LASH) have endorsed the ISH position paper, which emphasizes the encouraging outcomes of several clinical trials for CART BP. The study concludes that CART BP strongly corresponds with traditional Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM) systems and satisfies International Organization for Standardization (ISO) requirements.
The capacity of CART BP to deliver continuous, discreet blood pressure monitoring, which is more convenient than standard devices, is one of its most important benefits. Intermittent readings in clinical settings are frequently incorrect, but CART BP guarantees continuous, discrete monitoring, providing useful information day and night, making it the perfect tool for managing hypertension.
Sky Labs is dedicated to developing wearable health technologies and is always working to increase the precision and usability of blood pressure monitoring. By establishing new standards for patient monitoring and healthcare innovation, this ISH certification further reinforces CART BP’s position as a leading solution in the treatment of hypertension.
