Apple used AI to uncover new blood pressure notification feature in Watch ...Middle East

News by : (Daily Sun) -

The notification feature, which will work with models back to the Apple Watch Series 9, came about from applying AI models to existing sensor data, said Sumbul Ahmad Desai, Apple's vice president of health.

Apple used AI to sort through the data from 100,000 people enrolled in a heart and movement study it originally launched in 2019 to see whether it could find features in the signal data from the watch's main heart-related sensor that it could then match up with traditional blood pressure measurements, Desai said.

Apple's privacy measures mean that “one of the ironies here is we don’t get a lot of data” outside of the context of large-scale studies, Desai said.

The feature, which received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, does not measure blood pressure directly, but notifies users that they may have high blood pressure and encourages them to use a cuff to measure it and talk to a doctor.

Bhatt, who said her views are her own and do not represent those of the college, said Apple appears to have been careful to avoid false positives that might alarm users.

“There is also the risk of false reassurance — those who don’t get an alert may wrongly assume they don’t have hypertension,“ Bhatt said in an interview - REUTERS
