With the new Pixel Watch 3, Google's third-generation smartwatch is pioneering a new health feature for wearables: Loss of Pulse Detection. The feature kicks in when the watch's sensor detects specific anomalies in your blood flow, sending an alert for help if needed.
The ambition of saving lives through a feature like Loss of Pulse Detection reflects Google's commitment to addressing critical health issues. Google aims to bring this technology to the US in collaboration with regulators.
Immediate treatment during cardiac events is crucial, with more than 300,000 deaths from cardiac arrest annually in the US. The functionality of detecting a loss of pulse could have a significant impact on improving outcomes in such emergencies.
