Huawei’s Latest TruSeenTM 5.5+ Technology Proves a Breakthrough in Heart Health Monitoring

Marking the recent World Heart Day brings together everyone to engage in conversations about heart health. Primarily, it serves as a yearly reminder to every individual to get educated about heart disease risk factors, prevention, and early intervention. Research has shown that atrial fibrillation is the most common heart rhythm condition and is linked to an elevated risk of stroke, heart failure and dementia. With PPG Arrhythmia detection in smartwatches like Huawei’s new HUAWEI WATCH GT 4, users can keep tabs on their hearts and be alerted to some early warning signs of arrhythmia.

TruSeenTM 5.5+ for more accurate heartrate monitoring
Responding to increasing needs in the cardiovascular health sector, Huawei has spent the past 10 years developing its own heart monitoring solutions for its smart wearables, culminating in its very own TruSeenTM technology. Huawei first developed its own sensor solutions back in 2017, enabling wearable devices to support six types of dynamic heart rate monitoring.

Later on, in 2020, a high-performance ECG sensor was incorporated into the hardware module of TruSeen™ 4.0, breaking new ground with medical-grade electrocardiogram (ECG) detection capabilities and continuous blood oxygen monitoring functions. HUAWEI ECG App went on to obtain a European Union CE MDR medical device certification in 2022.

Huawei has most recently launched the improved TruSeenTM 5.5+ in its HUAWEI WATCH GT 4. Taking a big step forward from previous versions, TruSeenTM 5.5+ incorporates an upgraded algorithm that enhances the accuracy of the data by learning the user’s varying activity states and personal activity history. This approach improves the data accuracy by 30%, even under less-than-optimal reading conditions such as during dynamic exercises (skipping rope, running, etc.) or in low-temperature environments.

The improved TruSeenTM 5.5+ greatly enhances dynamic heart rate readings, from PPG arrhythmia detection to heart rate monitoring during sleep, which can alert users to any early warning signs of atrial fibrillation. Using TruSeenTM 5.5+’s algorithms, users can receive more precise readings for better health recommendations.

The heart is where the life flows from. It impacts all other vital components of our physical health. That’s why brands like Huawei are making it their core mission to improve access to early diagnoses and prevention of diseases through healthy living, empowering users to take control of their health – beginning with the heart.
