Long COVID Recovery - Is Your Heart OK?
CONNEQT Pulse can help reveal hidden risks linked to long COVID not identified by traditional arterial health screening.
"There is strong evidence from multiple studies that long COVID can be associated with persistent arterial stiffness and elevated central blood pressure. These vascular changes may persist up to or beyond 1.5 years post-infection, contributing to long‑term cardiovascular risk."
CONNEQT® Pulse
The world’s most advanced personal arterial health monitor.
CONNEQT Pulse is a clinical-grade health monitor that goes beyond standard blood pressure cuffs by measuring advanced cardiovascular biomarkers like central blood pressure, arterial stiffness, and SEVR. These insights reveal the true state of your heart and arteries—long before symptoms appear—empowering you to take action early, train smarter, and live longer.
What standard arterial health assessments won’t tell you about long COVID:
They won’t detect arterial stiffness caused by post-COVID inflammation.
COVID-related vascular damage can stiffen arteries—even in young or healthy people. That stiffness often doesn’t show up on a basic blood pressure reading.
They won’t measure central blood pressure—where the real risk lies.
You can have normal blood pressure at the arm but dangerously high "central blood pressure". That’s the pressure your heart and brain actually feel—and it’s often elevated after COVID.
They won’t reveal how much harder your heart is working.
Long COVID can increase augmentation pressure (AP), forcing your heart to pump harder against stiffer arteries—raising your risk of future heart failure.
They won’t show early signs of reduced blood flow to your heart.
Subendocardial viability ratio (SEVR) can reveal how well your heart muscle is being nourished. A low SEVR after COVID may signal future problems before symptoms start.
They won’t tell you if you’ve developed “hidden” hypertension.
Central hypertension can develop post-COVID even if your standard blood pressure reading looks fine.
They won’t measure central pulse pressure—a red flag in long COVID.
Elevated central pulse pressure indicates increased cardiac load and vascular aging—both linked to post-COVID damage.
They won’t show how COVID may have accelerated your vascular age.
Many long COVID patients have arteries that behave like someone decades older—information that isn’t captured by routine checks.
They don’t reveal the full picture of your recovery.
You may feel “better” but still have lingering cardiovascular stress. Advanced cardiovascular biomarkers measured by the CONNEQT Pulse can tell a different story.
How it works
The CONNEQT Pulse provides advanced insights into vascular health by measuring key biomarkers like arterial stiffness, c blood pressure, and heart stress. This technology enables early detection of cardiovascular risks and supports proactive heart health management.
Step 1: Begin the process by ordering your CONNEQT Pulse.
We'll ask a few simple questions to ensure you qualify. Once approved, the device will be shipped directly to you.
Step 2: Get started with effortless, at-home testing
Complete a quick, non-invasive health assessment using the Pulse from the comfort of home. Enjoy the convenience of precise measurements without the need for a doctor's visit.
Step 3: Unlock insights into your cardiovascular health
Use the CONNEQT app to view vascular data, track trends, optimize heart health, and make informed lifestyle choices.
CONNEQT's patent-pending Arterial Intelligence™ kicks in, breaking down your results into bite-sized, digestible insights—insights you can use to improve your health or start a conversation with your healthcare provider.
Step 4: Receive your personalized cardiology reports
After you take your initial set of readings with CONNEQT Pulse, you automatically receive an On-Demand Assessment in the app. During your included 30-day Care+ access, you can run unlimited On-Demand Assessments, and at day 30 you receive a comprehensive Cardiology Report that summarizes your month and highlights trends.
What you get
- On-Demand Assessment: a quick, app-based summary you receive automatically after your first readings and can run any time for an extra check-in.
- Care+ (included for 30 days):
- Unlimited On-Demand Assessments during the access period
- A 30-Day Cardiology Report at day 30 with clear trend highlights across measures such as central blood pressure, arterial stiffness, pulse-pressure amplification, and SEVR
After 30 days
- Keep using CONNEQT Pulse and view results on the device or in the app for free.
- Extend Care+ for ongoing monthly reporting, or purchase a 10-pack of On-Demand Assessments for occasional check-ins.
These assessments and the monthly cardiology report make it easier to spot patterns over time and share a clear summary with your clinician.
It's time to take the next step for your heart.
- You’re concerned about your risk of heart disease from long COVID.
- You want more insights than provided by traditional blood pressure devices.
- You had COVID and want to support your recovery better.
- You want to track your cardiovascular health over time at home.
- You’re making lifestyle changes and want to measure your progress.
No matter where you are in your heart health journey, CONNEQT's Arterial Health Assessment helps you take control of your future.
