The smart watch that saved the 54-year-old man’s life

This is truly the person who was born with a shirt! 54-year-old Brit saved the life of the “smart watch” Apple Watch. The device showed over time that the owner had heart problems, and then he decided to see a doctor. It turned out that his heart had stopped 138 times the other day. This was reported by The Independent.

Briton David Last received a smartwatch from Apple as a birthday present from his wife. On the first day of use, the device began to report that the heart rate periodically drops below 30 beats per minute in a calm position, when the norm for men of his age is 50 to 95 beats. At first, David thought the problem was a malfunction of the clock, but his wife insisted on a visit to the doctor.

They went to a local GP, who immediately referred David to a cardiologist. After careful examination, experts determined that the man’s heart had stopped 138 times in 48 hours. He may not really have noticed the problem himself, as it occurs at 10-second intervals during his sleep and another part of his heart is activated and maintaining blood flow at that time.

The man was operated on and a pacemaker was inserted. He no longer takes off his “smartwatch” even during sleep.
