This, I feel, is a very good indicator of vascular health. I particularly like the pulse wave velocity (PWV) reading.
The over-the-air software updates it receives keeps it updated, the functionality improves, and it maintains compliance with regulations. The build quality is fantastic, and the design is really great, though I'd prefer that it had a USB-C socket like everything else these days rather than a micro-USB, which is now a bit old-fashioned. However, unhealthy foods, non-stop stress, smoking, and other physical/mental factors can increase the aging rate of your vascular health. A healthy diet, daily exercise, and positive relationships all work together to create smoother vascular aging. There are several things that can help you decrease the aging of your vascular health. Vascular age is a metric recognized by the scientific community: if your vascular age is assessed as significantly greater than your chronological age, you may be more at risk of developing vascular disease later in life. Try to lower your Vascular Age in the long term by establishing healthier habits, or talk to your doctor about what you can do to improve. This reading does not diagnose you with a health condition. Not optimal Your vascular age is higher than your chronological age. You can try to improve your long-term trend by reinforcing healthy habits. You are in the same range as 80% of Withings users of the same age group. Normal Your vascular age is aligned with your chronological age. Maintain this trend by maintaining healthy habits. You are doing better than 90% of Withings users of the same age group. Optimal Your vascular age is lower than your chronological age. What are the different results I can get? Our exclusive algorithm developed with cardiology specialists takes your PWV measurements and computes your Vascular Age in comparison to other Withings Body Cardio users. The time it takes for the pressure wave to travel along the arterial tree is used by Body Cardio to compute pulse wave velocity.
Your vascular age is displayed within a range, and color-coded feedback will let you know if it’s optimal, normal, or not optimal.īody Cardio measures the time difference between blood ejection by the heart in the aorta and the arrival of blood flow in the feet. Based on pulse wave velocity (PWV), an innovative metric used by the medical community to assess arterial stiffness, vascular age is a key metric to give you a clearer picture of your heart’s health.
Vascular age is a health metric that provides a measurement of your arteries’ age compared to others of the same chronological age. We think of chronological age as our "real" age, but rarely do we consider how old we are on the inside.
