Sky Labs, led by Chief Executive Officer Jack Byunghwan Lee, announced on the 10th the launch of CART ON, a new inpatient blood pressure monitoring solution designed specifically for hospital wards. The system uses a ring type wearable device to automatically measure and manage blood pressure data for admitted patients, marking a significant step forward in continuous vital sign monitoring within clinical environments.

With the release of CART ON, Sky Labs has broadened its focus beyond outpatient care and consumer health devices to include inpatient ward monitoring. The company has now built a complete blood pressure monitoring portfolio that covers daily personal use, outpatient clinical settings, and hospital wards. This lineup includes CART BP for consumers, CART BP Pro for outpatient medical use, and the newly launched CART ON for inpatient care, ensuring consistent monitoring solutions across every stage of patient management.
CART ON is designed to simplify blood pressure measurement workflows in busy hospital settings. Instead of using traditional cuff based devices for patients who require 24 hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, healthcare professionals can prescribe a ring type wearable. The device uses a built in photoplethysmography sensor to automatically record blood pressure and related physiological data at regular intervals without requiring manual operation by staff or patients.

All collected data is seamlessly connected to Seers Technology’s inpatient monitoring platform, thynC. The information is automatically transmitted to the nurse station dashboard and integrated into the hospital’s electronic medical record system. This allows real time access to accurate blood pressure trends across the ward. Daewoong Pharmaceutical currently holds exclusive domestic sales rights in South Korea and plans to distribute the solution through hospital supply channels nationwide.
To ensure clinical reliability, Sky Labs conducted extensive comparative trials against established blood pressure measurement methods. These included auscultation, conventional cuff based ambulatory monitoring, and invasive arterial line measurements. Results demonstrated that the ring type monitor used in CART ON delivers accurate readings even during periods of significant blood pressure fluctuation, validating its performance against methods widely regarded as clinical standards.
The adoption of CART ON is expected to improve operational efficiency in hospital wards. For nursing staff, automated data capture reduces the risk of transcription errors and minimizes time spent on documentation, allowing greater focus on direct patient care such as medication administration and fluid management. Physicians benefit from consistent, objective data that supports more precise diagnosis and better informed treatment decisions.
Patient comfort is another key advantage of the solution. The absence of arm compression and mechanical noise helps reduce sleep disturbances often caused by cuff based monitors. Patients can move freely within the ward while measurements continue uninterrupted, enabling the collection of comprehensive 24 hour blood pressure profiles without added discomfort.
Jack Byunghwan Lee stated that CART ON was developed to enhance the management of patients with hypertension in hospital wards through clinically validated technology. He emphasized that Sky Labs will continue advancing vital sign monitoring solutions, including blood pressure, with the goal of creating smarter ward environments that improve efficiency for healthcare professionals while enhancing comfort and convenience for patients.
