With Apple Watch now alerting users to possible high blood pressure, The Pulse delivers the clinical reports that make those alerts meaningful.
Naperville, IL – September 15, 2025 — Apple’s new hypertension alert introduces millions to a health risk they might never have known they had. It is a breakthrough in passive, wearable screening. But while Apple provides the signal, it does not provide a diagnosis, a number, or a plan.
CONNEQT Pulse picks up where the Watch leaves off, with clinical-grade confirmation.
Pulse is the first FDA-cleared at-home arterial health monitor that produces structured cardiology reports for real clinical use. It confirms risk, adds physiological context, and helps physicians and individuals act before damage begins.
“Most blood pressure monitors give you a reading and leave you to figure out the rest,” said Craig Cooper, CEO of CONNEQT Health. “We built Pulse to go deeper and deliver what healthcare actually runs on: structured, shareable reports that show what is happening inside the arteries over time.”
The Report Is the Breakthrough
What sets Pulse apart is not just what it measures. It is how it turns those measurements into reports that matter. No other home monitor offers this level of clarity or clinical structure.
- The On-Demand Assessment provides a real-time snapshot of cardiovascular health. It measures brachial and central blood pressure, arterial stiffness, and SEVR, a marker of oxygen supply to the heart. This report is ideal for confirming an Apple Watch alert or checking in after a high-stress day.
- The 30-Day Cardiology Report tracks patterns across a full month. It visualizes changes in pressure, variability, and arterial load, helping clinicians see whether someone is developing sustained hypertension or responding to treatment.
These reports are not just useful. They are designed for real-world medical workflows and formatted so physicians can interpret them at a glance.
The Only Home Monitor That Sees Your Heart’s True Workload
Pulse is powered by SphygmoCor, the same gold-standard technology used in leading hospitals and cardiology research around the world. While it captures brachial blood pressure for clinical confirmation, it also goes far beyond what a standard cuff can measure.
Pulse provides insight into the actual demands placed on the heart and arteries by measuring:
- Central pressure, the force your heart and brain experience directly
- Arterial stiffness, an early marker of how fast your arteries are aging
- SEVR (Subendocardial Viability Ratio), a measure of whether your heart is getting enough oxygen during each beat
CONNEQT Pulse also syncs heart rate and brachial pressure data automatically with Apple Health, making the experience seamless and fully integrated for users already tracking their health in the Apple ecosystem.
From Awareness to Action
Apple’s new alert system detects patterns of elevated blood pressure using the Watch’s optical heart sensor. It runs in the background for 30 days and sends a notification when the data suggest a problem. It does not show blood pressure readings and it does not diagnose hypertension.
Instead, Apple advises users to confirm the alert with a validated cuff over a seven-day period. CONNEQT Pulse meets that recommendation and expands it, providing confirmation and clinical context in a single workflow.
The Future of Heart Health Is Structured, Not Guesswork
Most people do not discover they have hypertension until it has already caused harm. Pulse gives them the ability to detect risk earlier, understand it more fully, and share it with their care team without stepping into a clinic.
This is a new category of health tech. It is more than a wearable. It is more than a cuff. It is the first time arterial health can be measured, tracked, and reported with medical precision at home.
