## What is Cardiowell Digital Therapeutic?

Cardiowell is the world's first digital therapeutic to reduce the risks associated with hypertension.  Enhanced to allow for self and remote patient monitoring (RPM), Cardiowell is designed to help improve blood pressure, health and wellness.  It accomplishes this by allowing for the remote monitoring and management of blood pressure while allowing users to develop awareness of breathing and heart rate activity.  Cardiowell measures small changes in time between each heart beat (heart rate variability - HRV) and notifies you when you are under stress.  Cardiowell supports a variety of heart rate monitors and blood pressure devices to allow for self-monitoring.

Use a supported heart rate monitor and blood pressure device for maximum benefit of the App.

Download Cardiowell to:
1. Better manage your blood pressure
2. Improve your health and wellness
3. Become aware of stress of how stress effects your breathing

We believe that through self-awareness you can be empowered to improve your health and have a longer life.  

Measuring and monitoring your blood pressure by itself may not reduce your blood pressure and improve your health.   Cardiowell allows you to be an active participate in your health.

Cardiowell encourages you to become mindful of your breathing and practice breathing at 6 breaths per minute.  Breathing at six breaths per minute has been shown to lower blood pressure, reduce depression, improve sleep and reduce symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome while improving wellbeing.

Cardiowell helps you become aware of factors that cause you stress and with feedback, coaches you to breathe better and adapt to your situation.

By setting up heart rate and heart rate variability (HRV) auditory, tactile, and/or visual notifications, you become aware when your health is being affected by poor breathing and stress.   

Cardiowell integrates with AppleHealth so you can monitor your blood pressure, pulse, and weight, to understand how healthy breathing can improve your wellness.

Cardiowell also allows you to:
-Set notifications on Apple iPhone & Watch allowing you to receive subtle nudges whenever you are not breathing properly.
-Track your blood pressure and set reminders.  
-Monitor changes in blood pressure, weight, pulse, and wellness.

Important: This App requires blue-tooth low energy heart rate monitors like the Polar H7, or H10 and many other BLE heart rate monitors to allow for stress monitoring and behavioral feedback.  

Apple Watch only allows for receipt of Wellness nudges and reminders. Heart rate from the Apple Watch is not supported.

It also supports the Cardiowell blood pressure and weight scale.  But you can always manually add blood pressure values and import blood pressure data from their party Apps using AppleHealth in order to monitor your health.  

Please note that Cardiowell is not supported on the iPad.

*Cardiowell is a general wellness improvement solution to reduce the risks associated with hypertension. The Cardiowell solution is indicated for use only as an adjunctive treatment for high blood pressure together with other pharmacological and/or non-pharmacological interventions.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work in iPhone X

*2020-04-26*

Application looks funny on iPhone X, stylings are all over the place and nothing is working..

### 1/5 — Doesn’t sync with my Apple Watch

*2018-06-16*

I’ve got a brand new Apple Watch and I’ve opened and reopened this app and it never recognizes it. The troubleshooting prompt only gives you a list of supported devices but doesn’t tell you what to doing your “supported device” doesn’t actually link up to the app. No clear instructions. No data or heart rate monitor so far. Big waste of time.
