HRX Roundtable – Innovation in PPG Technology

PPG has rapidly evolved from a consumer wellness tool into a promising clinical modality with wide-ranging applications in cardiovascular care. This roundtable will explore cutting-edge innovations in PPG technology and how it is being deployed to transform detection, diagnosis, and disease management. From arrhythmia monitoring to blood pressure estimation, sleep apnea screening, and heart failure assessment, PPG-based tools are reshaping how and where care is delivered—especially when integrated into wearables, smartphones, and remote monitoring platforms. Experts from digital health startups, academic research, and clinical practice will examine key advances in signal processing, AI-enhanced analytics, and device miniaturization. We’ll also tackle the regulatory, validation, and clinical integration challenges that must be addressed to move from promise to practice.
