Man Rushed to Hospital After Apple Watch Heart Monitor ‘Went Nuts’
In April 2019, a 23-year-old user named ClockworkWVVII posted a thread to Reddit elaborating on how his life was saved by his Apple Watch. Apparently, his heartbeat began to increase irregularly, alerting him to the point of calling an ambulance. When said emergency service representatives arrived, they found the man in shock. Doctors stated that he was suffering from supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), a condition where a heart beats at more than 100 beats per minute. If Clockwork had not called the police, it’s likely that he would have severely hurt himself before the medics could reach him in time.
