The sleep apnea feature will enable users over the age of 22 who have not been diagnosed with sleep apnea to detect signs of moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) over a two-night monitoring period, a common and chronic sleep condition that often goes undiagnosed and untreated. To utilize the feature, users will be able to simply track their sleep twice for more than four hours within a ten-day period.
OSA causes a person to stop breathing while sleeping and can often result in disruptions in oxygen supply, lower sleep quality and daytime fatigue. Untreated sleep apnea can compound the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension, coronary artery disease, heart failure, cardiac arrhythmias and stroke. According to the National Sleep Foundation (NSF), roughly 25% of men and 10% of women in the U.S. experience OSA. The new feature on the Samsung Health Monitor app is expected to help more people proactively detect moderate or severe forms of OSA, and as a result of the detection seek medical care to reduce the possibility of health-related complications.
Good health is strongly linked to good sleep. Sleep helps our bodies and minds recover and empowers us to wake up refreshed and ready for the day ahead. The quality of sleep we get every night has a significant impact on our physical and mental well-being, our relationships, our performance and much more. Samsung recognizes the foundational role that sleep serves in our health and well-being by focusing on three key elements for better sleep: understanding sleep patterns, building better habits and creating a sleep-friendly environment.
With the sleep apnea feature, Samsung is taking the next step in its ongoing commitment to provide Galaxy users with the best possible sleep tools to improve their sleep health habits. The feature will be available on the Galaxy Watch series in the US via Samsung Health Monitor app in the third quarter3.

The Health Monitor app is for anyone with a Samsung smartwatch. The app is available for people with a new Samsung Galaxy Watch starting at the Watch 3 or Active 2. You can use the app to measure your blood pressure or perform ECG heart rate measurements. The data from these readings gets stored in the app, so you can easily check it. You can download the Samsung Health Monitor app on your smartwatch and your smartphone. The health measurements you perform via the app are never as accurate as in the hospital. Do you have health complaints? Always consult your doctor.
If your blood pressure is too high, you might suffer from brain, kidney, or heart disease. From the Samsung Galaxy Watch3 and Galaxy Watch Active2 onwards, Samsung smartwatches measure your blood pressure from your wrist. Before you get started, you first have to calibrate your Watch with an analog blood pressure monitor. You can do this at the doctor, for example. After, these watches can perform a pulse wave analysis via the heart rate monitor. The app will show you the difference between your calibration value and your current blood pressure. You'll know if your blood pressure is lower or higher than your previous reading.
An electric or ECG heart rate monitor measures the electric activity in your blood. The strength and timing of the electric signals show your heart rhythm in the shape of a cardiogram. With an ECG reading, you can discover heart arrhythmia and atrial fibrillation. You perform an ECG reading when you place your fingertip on the top button of your smartphone. The results appear in the Samsung Health Monitor app. Do you have heart complaints or heart arrhythmia? Always consult your doctor.
