Sleep and Heart Health: What You Need to Know

In this episode of SleepTech Talk, we explore the critical connection between sleep and heart health with Ami Bhatt, Chief Innovation Officer at the American College of Cardiology and Chair of the inaugural Digital Health Advisory Committee of the FDA.

Sleep and cardiovascular health are deeply interconnected, yet often overlooked. Dr. Bhatt breaks down how sleep impacts heart health — and what patients and clinicians should be paying attention to.

⭐ In this episode, we discuss:

The relationship between sleep and cardiovascular health
How poor sleep can impact heart disease risk
The role of wearables and digital health tools in monitoring sleep and heart metrics
Why wearables are helpful — but don’t replace clinical evaluation and diagnostics
The emerging role of GLP-1 medications in overall health
How AI and digital health innovations are shaping the future of sleep and cardiology

This episode is essential for clinicians, sleep professionals, and anyone interested in improving their heart health through better sleep.
