Is there a Fitbit (or any SmartWatch) that can take Blood Pressure and also act as an echocardigram (ECG)?

Hi @RoGard
The Fitbit devices do not support blood pressure at this time. The Fitbit Sense can provide you an ECG.

@RoGard as far as I am aware, Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 and Galaxy Watch Active 2 support ECG and BP. I'm not sure how accurate that is (look for reviews).

@RoGard Fitbit is currently doing a study to test if a concept called Pulse Arrival Time can provide a blood pressure measurement. I believe the concept uses similar technology as the Samsung devices.
My background is human physiology. Let me share some insight with you. Blood pressure measurements are different if you take them in different places on your body. For me, until proven otherwise, the best, consistent, and the measurement your health care provider wants to know is one done with a high quality cuff on your left arm. At rest. With your arm at heart level. Just give me a tile on my dashboard where I can enter my numbers.
