&lt;p&gt;You would use either evaluation kit or development kit to develop blood pressure or heart rate monitoring. You can read about those kits on &lt;a href="https://www.nordicsemi.com/eng/Products/Bluetooth-R-low-energy/nRF51822"&gt;this page&lt;/a&gt;. More discussion on the difference between those kits is on &lt;a href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/question/609/whats-the-difference-between-nrf51822-evaluation-and-development-kits/"&gt;this thread&lt;/a&gt;. In the nRF51822 SDK, we have code examples that implement both blood pressure and heart rate profiles.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The stack itself does not implement the profiles. That is done in the application code by adding the services and characteristics that are specified in the &lt;a href="https://www.bluetooth.org/en-us/specification/adopted-specifications"&gt;profile&lt;/a&gt; in question.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
