Apple Watch again diagnoses atrial fibrillation, now in Florida

The Apple Watch is becoming an essential for those who want to improve their health or at least have control of it. The integration of technology based on neural networks and improvements in health matters such as the integration of electrocardiograms or an improved frequency sensor are key to the advancement of the Big Apple clock. Some days ago, a Florida man was diagnosed with atrial fibrillation. First with a notice from the Apple Watch and, after going to the emergency room, by the hospital doctors. Yet another user that the Apple Watch has helped.

The atrial fibrillation of a Floridian, detected by the Apple Watch

This is Roy Robinson, a US citizen, who was visiting his family in Baltimore last week. In one of his days, he went to see his granddaughter at her educational center and as he climbed the stairs he realized that I was especially tired breathless. That afternoon, Robinson says, the Apple Watch sent a notification every hour warning that "he was on A-Fib", or what is the same, that his heart had a rhythm that was consistent with atrial fibrillation.

Robinson and his family were unaware what atrial fibrillation was. After Googling it and finishing dinner, he and his son went to the hospital. Cuando lo atendieron, su motivo de consulta era: «mi reloj me ha dicho que estoy en fibrilación auricular«. Le conectaron los electrodos para proceder a realizar el electrocardiograma y, efectivamente, Roy Robinson padece una FA. Mientras estaba ingresado en el hospital, el CEO de Apple acudió a verle.

Roy assures that He does not know if the Apple Watch saved his life, which is one of the topics used in the media in relation to these issues. But who believes that it sure helped to become aware of a health problem that you might not have otherwise taken into account.
