SKG Partners with PUMC on Sleep Apnea Algorithm
KEY FACTS
- SKG has signed an agreement with the Peking Union Medical College to launch a joint research project on sleep apnea detection algorithms.
- The study involves three top-tier hospitals and uses polysomnography data as the gold standard to calibrate the watch's algorithm.
- The SKG Little Guard watch features a 4-channel PPG system and oscillometric blood pressure measurement, with a nominal accuracy of ±3mmHg.
- The device includes a closed-loop intervention mechanism for abnormal events, automatically triggering human customer service to contact relatives upon risk detection.

PHYSIX OBSERVATION
The wearable health sector is shifting from mere data collection to medical-grade closed-loop services. By partnering with a premier medical school for clinical endorsement and strengthening the 'detection plus human intervention' chain, SKG aims to break through consumer trust barriers. This model, positioning hardware as an emergency response entry point, offers high utility for individuals living alone or with chronic conditions, but it also imposes stricter compliance requirements regarding privacy protection and service response timeliness.
