Samsung Galaxy Watch6 will launch with FDA cleared irregular heart rhythm notifications
09 May 2023
Today Samsung declared that its unpredictable heart cadence warning (IHRN) include has been cleared by the US FDA. The IHRN feature will be added to the ECG function so that you can keep track of abnormal heart rhythms and be notified when one occurs.
The element will make a big appearance on One UI 5 Watch, Samsung's own wear operating system skin that will be running on the Galaxy Watch6 series, because of be made authority in the not so distant future - by the most recent bits of gossip, at some point in July.
One UI 5 Watch will then advance toward the Universe Watch5 series and the Cosmic system Watch4 family, in time, after the arrival of the World Watch6 line.
Atrial fibrillation (AFib)-like heart rhythms are actively monitored by IHRN. AFib is a type of arrhythmia that is thought to be a sign of serious cardiovascular problems that can make you more likely to have a stroke, heart failure, or other problems. You may have AFib but be unaware of it because some cases are silent or asymptomatic.
The feature will check for irregular heart rhythms in the background once activated in the Samsung Health Monitor app. If a certain number of consecutive measurements are irregular, the watch will alert you to possible AFib activity and encourage you to take an electrocardiogram (ECG) for a more accurate measurement.
