Google adds insulin resistance and blood pressure trends to Fitbit Air and Edge for Google Health Premium subscribers
Google has added insulin resistance and cuffless blood pressure trend features to the Fitbit Air and Fitbit Edge, as part of its "Health Guardian" suite of proactive safety tools. The features are limited to Google Health Premium subscribers ($100 per year). They use heart rate, activity, sleep and other sensor data to show changes in metabolic health, and they report trends rather than a diagnosis. The article presents the release as a step toward non-invasive glucose monitoring. It is product news with no security incident, vulnerability or threat activity.
Detalhes técnicos
- The insulin resistance feature uses a multimodal model that Google trained on data from other wearables and on demographic data, according to its paper in Nature.
- Eligible devices must have been worn for five days or more before the insight appears in the Health tab of the app.
- Users can connect an Abbott CGM to the Google Health app for additional glucose monitoring.
