Apple is usually very proud of its smart watch, which is often an excellent ally for people's health. Even so, it has recently been shown that Apple Wath is being used by people who consume cocaine for the purpose of monitoring their health, which is no longer expected by Apple.
Anyway, the Apple Watch was useful in yet another situation that ended up in the media. According to Australian newspapers, a 24-year-old was able to detect a serious health problem thanks to the watch.
Mike Love said that his watch alerted him at dawn that his heart rate was way above normal. In general, in a resting state, the rate does not exceed 60 times per minute. In Mike's case, the clock read about 130 to 140 beats per minute.
As soon as Mike went to an emergency doctor, he ended up finding a serious health problem that had been present since his childhood.

Mike needed surgery after the problem was discovered. The young man is already at rest.
"I don't think I could live without the Apple Watch right now. I love it for the convenience, but also the fact that it just found something I had no idea about, which potentially saved my life," the boy said after the surgery.
As we can see, technology is already a great ally to our health. That companies invest more and more in such resources.
