While the search results don't specifically address smartwatches, they do discuss medical alert devices and jewelry that can be helpful for people with lupus. Medical alert jewelry and devices can be particularly valuable during emergencies when you may have difficulty communicating your medical needs.

For monitoring health metrics like heart rate, activity, and sleep, a smartwatch or fitness tracker could be a useful tool to share with your healthcare team. However, it's important to discuss using any health monitoring device with your doctor to understand how to best use the data for your specific situation. If you're interested in both health monitoring and emergency alerts, there are medical alert systems that can be more comprehensive than traditional medical ID jewelry. These systems can be installed in homes and can actively alert others if you need medical attention, which may be especially beneficial if you live alone.

I use Visible health! It’s a continuous tracking if you get their armband. I have used it since April and it’s been a great tool for monitoring my health and symptoms
