By GlobalDataThe upper arm blood pressure monitor and wrist blood pressure monitor allows measurement of the systolic and diastolic blood pressure as well as heart rate.
The body analysis scale measures weight and estimates body fat (BIA), and calculates body mass index (BMI).
The ear thermometer accurately measures body temperature in two seconds.
Philips personal health solutions business leader Jorgen Behrens said: “Our personal health programmes have been developed in conjunction with leading doctors, psychologists and other experts.
“They will allow individuals to accurately measure vital signs to understand how lifestyle choices affect their body; set goals and monitor their progress, and stay motivated.”
The new programmes and devices were built on the company’s healthSuite digital platform which is an open and secure, cloud-based platform collecting and examining health and other data derived from multiple devices and sources.
