Not just once or twice, but over 3,000 times. The ECG heart sensor saved his life by sending low heart rate alerts nearly 3,000 times.
Elderly David Last said, “My wife gave me this watch as a gift. After several warnings from the watch, we decided to go to the hospital. After doing several medical tests, the report came as a shock to me. It was discovered that I had a heart problem,” he said.
According to the report, the old man’s heart rate has dropped below 30 beats per minute. Apple Watch detects and alerts with ECG sensor. Normal heart rate should be 60-100 beats per minute. His heart rate was found to have slowed 138 times in 10 seconds in 48 hours.
