A LOT of watches have those same features.

I just bought a different watch for my MIL, who is having extreme AFIB issues. She had a pacemaker installed yesterday. She’s back in surgery because one of the pacemaker leads came loose from her heart.

Her new watch monitors BP, Blood Sugar, Temp, ECG, Heart rate, and a bunch of other things.

I have AFIB and a pacemaker too, so good luck to your MIL.
You wrote that she’s back in surgery. Is she in the Cath Lab? Maybe that’s considered surgery. Anyway, good luck to her.

Blood Pressure, and Blood Sugar without penetrating the skin has been the Holy Grail for decades. I know Apple was accused of racism, because black athletes with tattoos claimed that the Apple Watch had difficulty maintaining heart pulse detection on their wrists (so, obviously racism, right? /sarcasm). I hope the watch is accurate, as this would be an advancement that would benefit everyone.
