We are once again facing a new case in which the Apple Watch is no longer a simple smart watch that receives notifications, notifies you of your appointments, etc. to be a lifesaver for a client with heart problems. In this case we move to England, more specifically to Cockermouth, where Kevin Pearson is the protagonist of our story.
Pearson, 52, he was sitting and reading quietly, as well as "thinking about his business". At that precise moment, his Apple Watch told him that his heart rate was increasing. At first he thought that it was an error in the Apple smart watch since he was sitting, calm, without making efforts and he did not notice anything out of the ordinary.
You followed the Apple Watch prompts and was monitoring his heart rate for the next few minutes. In this interval of time the ups and downs were evident: they went up to 135 beats per minute and suddenly dropped to 79 beats per minute. Something was wrong.
Luckily and coincidentally, Kevin Pearson was already in a hospital; He periodically accompanied his father for medical tests. So he informed the doctors and sure enough: something was wrong. They referred him to a larger hospital and there they told him that, after several heart rate reading tests and blood tests, he was in the middle of what doctors call an "Event."
No further details have been given to the medium The Independent who has echoed the story. What has been known is that Kevin Pearson has his Apple Watch configured so that it alerts its user when the heartbeat exceeds 120 beats per minute. Likewise, our protagonist had not taken into account this very important facet of the porpular w Apple and all the records that are kept inside to share with your doctor. He also reportedly wrote a letter of gratitude to Tim Cook, the company's CEO.
