Connected health has taken giant measures in recent years. Thanks to the advances of the various sensors integrated into watches, dedicated devices, but also thanks to the analysis that result from it, in particular with the reinforcement of the AI. At the forefront of this sector with its multiple available health devices (balance, blood pressure monitor, thermometer, etc.), the withings continue to think about everyone’s well -being and presented in these 2024 a slightly special health device, finally available for sale.
Beamo is a promising 4-in-1 that has essential medical functions (thermometer, pulse oxygen saturation, ECG and digital stethoscope). The objective of this device is to have everything at hand, to be simple to use and be able to easily share the results. It works in relation to the Withings application.
Beamo has the CE certification as a class IIA medical device (non -invasive physiological measure) in the European Union. Therefore, all functions are accessible, satisfied and safe results.
A versatile 4-in-1 for the whole family
The device is in fact easy to use. It must have matched the application so that its profile is full and accessible, with data complemented by the other devices that it can have (balance, monitoring of blood pressure, connected watches, etc.) through Withings Health, Apple Health, Google Health, Samsung Health … with which it is synchronized. Beamo can register eight different users and a guest.
To take its temperature, you just have to choose the profile, then indicate the temperature intake and place the sensor at the end of the beamo on the forehead. For oximeter and heart rate, pass the device in horizontal mode and place your fingers at the top. Everything is done in a few dozen seconds. To listen to beat or pulmonary noises, you must connect the USB-C/Jack adapter provided to a helmet. And then have a specialized ear to know how to distinguish a normal rhythm from a light anomaly!
The stethoscope function is based on an integrated piezoelectric disk that will capture the sounds of the body. Several places are indicated to take information with the Beamo. It is even possible to register an audio of heart or pulmonary beats and then share them with a specialist who will be much more likely to analyze everything.
An expensive active remote monitoring
All measures are stored in the medical system and can be shared through the application with your doctor, during a teleconsultation or remotely. We have compared ourselves with conventional devices or a connected clock that also has many common sensors and the results obtained are almost identical.
Beamo is a versatile and very useful device for a family, and above all a telemedicine ally with its ability to share the data with your doctor or any other specialist. It has basic but useful health tools. We can regret that it does not take blood pressure or is not able, for example, take stock of the detections. Not all are doctors or nurses to understand without alarming (or alarming in case of more serious pathology).
The main brake on the purchase can be its price. With 250 euros, it is necessary to have a need more than occasional for this health device and use it in particular in case of greater surveillance, mainly of the heart and lungs for which it will be a real asset. In addition, the subscription to Withings+ (3 months offered with a cardio check) is essential to obtain additional functions, in particular the analysis of the ECG.
If you have an Apple Watch connected clock with sensors, you already have the ECG, heart rate control or oximeter at no additional cost. On the other hand, the exchange of information is simpler with the Beamo, which will be an asset of choice if it is far from being a doctor often uses teleconsultation.
