What's more concerning, is only about 1 in 4 adults with high blood pressure have it under control. Having high blood pressure increases your risk of heart attack and stroke. And it's estimated that in the United States alone, $131 billion is spent on the condition each year.On today's episode, you'll hear from Jay Shah, MD. He is an expert cardiologist, having practiced at Massachusetts General Hospital and the Mayo Clinic, and now is Chief Medical Officer for Aktiia. He believes the time has come in medicine for individuals to understand and optimize their own health. This includes a better understanding of your blood pressure, and not relying on a sole reading at the doctor's office to say “You have high blood pressure, take this medication.”In this interview, he talks about a better way to measure high blood pressure - continuously and automatically. Similar to a continuous glucose monitor but for blood pressure. For the right person, this technology can be life-saving. Highlights From This Episode: Prevalence of high blood pressure.Importance of proper medication dosing.What is Aktiia and how to use it properly.Why a continuous blood pressure device increases the Hawthorne effect and behavior change. Lifestyle changes to lower blood pressure.  Subscribe & ReviewSubscribing and leaving a rating and review are important factors in helping the Reshape Your Health Podcast and the YouTube Channel reach more people.

Dr. Jay Shah, Chief Medical Officer of Aktiia, discusses the importance of tracking blood pressure and the challenges of managing high blood pressure. With only one in five people with high blood pressure having it under control, long-term monitoring is crucial for better understanding blood pressure trends and optimizing health. The Aktiia wearable blood pressure monitoring device uses optical signal processing to continuously monitor blood pressure without the need for action to be taken by the patient. Jay explains, "The real danger of high blood pressure occurs over years, decades, long periods of time of having your blood pressure outside the optimal range. It is really what causes the detrimental effects to many of the different organs of our body, of our heart, brain, kidneys, eyes, aorta, and so on. And so the importance of understanding what your blood pressure is over long periods of time is really what we're focused on at Aktiia. That's why people should be aware of and track their blood pressure on a long-term basis."   "Aktiia is a Swiss company and it was founded about five years ago. The technology has been in development for two decades by the founders, co-founders in an engineering think tank out of Switzerland. And they've been pioneers of what's called optical signal processing." "This is taking signals from LED lights and the reflection of that light from the skin or the capillary bed, the small vessels in our skin, and deducing the numeric physiologic parameters. And they started around heart rate. They were the pioneers of understanding how to take optical signals from sensors at the wrist and create heart rate calculations. This was done way back before there were smart watches or wearables. It was done back in the early 2000s. After they got good at that, they turned to blood pressure." #Aktiia #Hypertension #HighBloodPressure #BloodPressure #MedicalDevices #Wearable #HealthTracking #Fitness Aktiia.com Download the transcript here

In this episode of Your Health Transformed we have the guest speaker Dr Jay Shah who is a cardiologist and also chief medical officer at Aktiia. The main topic that he talks about in this podcast is “Hypertension” since it's a huge issue all around the world, He starts by giving us an overview of his company. He explains how most people do not pay attention to their blood pressure as they think it's common and not something that they should worry about and this leads misunderstanding leads them to worst conditions. Even after having the best treatment available yet only one in five percent of people have their blood pressure in control. Further, he explains in detail on how to take a proper blood pressure test. What conditions need to be followed etc? He states that Aktiia is a technology software that is based on optical signals that sit on the wrist and give accurate blood pressure readings almost like a watch. He puts forward facts that are being faced by physicians and patients in the current world. The most mind-blowing fact that he talks about is how only 50% of people are actually salt sensitive regarding blood pressure. He finally concludes by stating that the main aim of his company is to “Empower patients and make them independent of everything and give expert knowledge and be available to everyone”. #DrJaySha #understandinghypertension #health #fitness #healthylifestyle #wellness #healthy #workout #love #gym #lifestyle #fit #fitnessmotivation #training #nutrition #exercise #healthyfood #weightloss #bodybuilding #life #instagood #fitfam #beauty #covid #selfcare #bhfyp #mentalhealth #food #diet #bhfyp To learn more about my transformation program and how to use it on your journey to become a better you, check out my book Transformation is a Mind-Set https://www.amazon.com/Transformation...

Few companies can claim to be a step ahead of tech giants in the wearable race. The Swiss company Aktiia can. They were the first to successfully bring to market a device capable of continuously and accurately measuring blood pressure, officially approved in Europe and soon to be in the US. All in a discreet bracelet that resembles a traditional jewel. It changes the game for how we approach hypertension, the first chronic condition worldwide affecting a staggering 1.4 billion people, and which comes with dire long-term consequences like strokes and heart attacks. The impact such groundbreaking technology can have on the daily lives of those affected is immense, not to mention its benefits for those in charge of their medical care. Say goodbye to the uncomfortable and cumbersome inflatable cuff (the actual “gold standard” to measure blood pressure), not to mention the major step forward in terms of design! Aktiia has defied expectations by merging optical and machine learning expertise over nearly two decades of cutting-edge research, resulting in a significant breakthrough in the world of wearables.
