#S health sleep monitor skin

If a watch measures skin temperature, should it tell us when we have a fever? If a watch can measure blood pressure, do we expect it to warn us of a heart attack? So far the answer is no, and these features are not active. The US market is very strict about devices with health tracking features and the claims that they make. I just want to better understand my sleep without spending a night in a clinic. I understand the reservations, but I’m not looking for a medical diagnosis of hypertension. How about my blood pressure? The Galaxy Watch 5 will measure blood pressure in some markets, but that feature, like the skin temperature sensor, is not available in the US.

If I find a pattern that I’m getting too hot at night, I have a smart thermostat and I can set the air conditioner to kick in at the right time. What was the temperature like? What was my body temperature? Maybe I became restless because I was too hot or cold. I’d love to know more, the kind of more that the Galaxy Watch 5 is capable of telling me … mostly. All of this paints a picture of my sleep health. My sleep tracker shows that I woke up around that time, and I remember using the bathroom, getting a drink of water. At around the same time that I was snoring, my blood oxygen levels also dropped a bit, which makes sense. When you start the Samsung Health sleep program, it tells you to turn on blood oxygen tracking while you sleep. The recordings are timestamped, so I started looking through my data. What comes next is even more interesting. In fact, I feel better about my overall sleeping health having heard these recordings. The rest are simply heavy, regular breathing. In fact – it’s not that bad! The app must be very sensitive because, of the ten recordings, there are only one or two that involve actual snoring.
