Explanation:

This is what I would say:
The watch has several sensors. One of the sensors can detect cardiac activity, while another can detect body temperature, and yet another, the blood sugar levels.

Explanation:
I´m assuming that the device we are talking about is put around your wrist, like a watch and also that the watch has only 3 sensors or that the sensors work together in the detections mentioned. If there are more sensors, then my suggestion isn´t correct.

My suggestion:
The watch has a number of sensors to detect cardiac activity, body temperature and blood sugar levels.

I also agree with Taña´s suggestion.
