Taking measurements after preparation
After you have calibrated your Galaxy Watch with an upper-arm, cuff-based blood pressure monitor, you're ready to use the Samsung Health Monitor on your Galaxy Watch to measure your blood pressure. You won't need to use the cuff-based monitor again until the next calibration in 28 days.
To ensure more accurate blood pressure measurement, do the following:
1) Wear your Galaxy Watch on the same wrist as during the calibration and make sure the Galaxy Watch strap is snug around your wrist, but not too tight.
2) 30 minutes before doing the measurement, do not have any alcohol or caffeine, and do not smoke, exercise, or bathe.
3) Make sure your arm and wrist are dry and free of excessive perspiration or skin lotion.
4) Do the measurement indoors in a quiet place.
5) Put a comfortable chair next to a table.
6) Sit in the chair with your back well supported, your legs uncrossed, and your feet flat on the ground.

4. Reviewing your blood pressure measurements
On your Galaxy Watch
After Samsung Health Monitor on the Galaxy Watch successfully measures your blood pressure, the Galaxy Watch and the Galaxy smartphone display the following results:
When a Bluetooth connection is established between your Galaxy Watch and the Galaxy smartphone you used to calibrate the Galaxy Watch, your measurement results are synced to the Samsung Health Monitor app on the Galaxy smartphone. You can share this information with your doctor for review or consultation.
*Individuals with Systolic BP and Diastolic BP in 2 categories should be assigned to the higher BP category.
*Individuals with Systolic BP and Diastolic BP in 2 categories should be assigned to the higher BP category.
Things you need to know before using the Blood Pressure app:
1. The Blood Pressure app should not be used for any diagnostic purposes regarding hypertension or other heart conditions. The Blood Pressure app is not meant to replace traditional methods of diagnosis or treatment by a qualified healthcare professional.
2. Do Not use the Blood Pressure app if you have any of the following conditions: - Arrhythmia - Prior heart failure or heart attack - Peripheral vascular disease or compromised circulation - Valvular disease (diseases concerning the aortic valve) - Cardiomyopathy - Other known cardiovascular disease - End-stage Renal Disease (ESRD) - Diabetes - Neurological disorder (i.e. tremors) - Clotting disorder or if you are taking prescribed blood thinners - Tattoo(s) on the wrist where you will wear the Galaxy Watch
3. The Blood Pressure app uses optical signals collected from a sensor on the Galaxy Watch and needs a good-quality signal in order to calculate blood pressure. The quality of the signal can be affected by various factors, such as the watch sensor's cleanness or the measured area's optical properties.
4. DO NOT change your medications or dosages without first consulting your doctor.

ECG
Take an Electrocardiogram with your Galaxy Watch
Electrocardiogram (ECG) is a test that measures the electrical activity of the heart and the information is recorded on a graph. ECG is currently the best way to detect irregular rhythms. The Samsung Health Monitor ECG app detects ECG signals (similar to a Lead I ECG) with the help of your Galaxy Watch's ECG sensor and determines whether atrial fibrillation or normal sinus rhythm is present. Samsung Health Monitor ECG app creates, records, saves, and exports ECG data2

2. Precautions before use
1) Wear the Galaxy Watch snugly on your wrist.
2) Make sure that your wrist (the skin area that comes in contact with the watch sensor) is not too dry.
3) Avoid hard exercise for 5 minutes right before the measurement.
4) Take measurements sitting in a chair with your back properly supported and with hands and arms resting comfortably on the table.
5) Do not move your arms and fingers or speak during the measurement.
3. Recording an ECG using your Galaxy Watch
1) Open the Samsung Health Monitor app on your Galaxy Watch.
2) Make sure the Galaxy Watch is snug on your wrist.
3) Rest your forearms comfortably on a table and then rest a fingertip of the opposite hand lightly on the Galaxy Watch’s top button for 30 seconds. Remain still and do not talk while the Galaxy Watch takes the measurement. When the recording process has finished, the ECG results will appear on your watch. Note: Don't press the top button during recording; pressing the top button during recording will stop the recording.
4) Scroll up and down to see your ECG result. If you are experiencing symptoms, tap Add and on the Symptoms screen, scroll through the list and tap each symptom you are experiencing. Then tap Save to add the symptoms to your ECG report and to return to the Results screen.
5) Tap Done to go back to the Start screen. You can review your ECG report in the ECG Monitor app on your phone. (Note that syncing requires that the watch and phone are paired using Bluetooth.)

4. Reviewing your ECG reports on your Galaxy
After you take an ECG, the ECG data is synced to the paired Galaxy smartphone where a PDF report is created.
1) ECG analysis result just after measurement is sent from Galaxy Watch to Galaxy smartphone.
2) On phone app, you can retrieve detailed results transmitted from Galaxy Watch and you can see the classified results as follows.
∙ Sinus Rhythm : A Sinus Rhythm is when the heart beats in a consistent rhythm. This occurs when the heart’s upper and lower chambers beat in sync. A Sinus Rhythm result is based only on that particular ECG recording and doesn’t mean your heart beats uniformly all the time. Also, a Sinus Rhythm result does not guarantee that you are not experiencing an arrhythmia or other health condition. If you are not feeling well regardless of your result, contact your doctor.
∙ Atrial Fibrillation : Atrial Fibrillation, or AFib, is when the heart beats in an irregular rhythm. This occurs when the heart’s upper chambers beat out of sync with the lower chambers. AFib is the most common form of irregular heartbeat. If not treated, it can lead to blood clots, stroke, heart failure, and other health problems.
∙ Inconclusive : An Inconclusive result means that the ECG recording could not be classified. This could happen if:
- The heart rate during the recording was less than 50 bpm.
- The heart rate during recording was greater than 100 bpm and the rhythm was not AFib.
- The heart rhythm was AFib and the heart rate was greater than 120 bpm.
- The heart rhythm was neither sinus rhythm nor AFib.
If you get this result repeatedly, contact your doctor.
∙ Poor recording : A Poor recording result means Samsung Health Monitor was not able to analyze the data. A poor recording usually happens because your body moved during recording or the Galaxy Watch didn't have enough skin contact with your wrist or finger.
If you get this result repeatedly, see Troubleshooting section in Instructions For Use document.
