Starting with a life saving tip from a piece of tech.
A 29 year old Cincinnati woman was taking a nap on her couch.
When her apple watch woke her up with an alert about her elevated heart rate.
It was 100 and 78 beats per minute. That's comparable to heavy athletic activity.
Again,
she was just snapping when she went to the doctor and they told her she had a saddle
pulmonary embolism which affects both the left and right
lungs and only has a survival rate of 50%.
They discovered she had a
blood clotting disorder and we're able to treat her successfully.
The woman credits her apple watch for saving her life.
She told Cincinnati's local 12 station it might be
seen as stay staying too connected or something.
But I think it can be helpful in a health sense. She also added, I'm very lucky,
I'd say just to have that watch on while you were napping to find
a
potentially fatal disease. Yeah. One in 50 chance of her surviving.
Those rates are really low and
29 she's young to be sort of having these effects. So, yeah, no doubt.
That she's crediting the Apple watch with saving
her life and she's telling everybody else to
go get this technology just because it monitors that sort of sit that stuff there.
So now you have to think like everybody now wants some sort of health apps to
track something just in situations like this because this clearly would have
been a fatal situation for her if this was not found,
by the way, also trying to get into the glucose monitoring a bit
as
well with their, with their Apple watch as well.
So that way you can check your glucose levels without having to
prick or your finger or do a shot or anything like that.
So that again would be a life saving thing for so many people out there.
And by the way, I have an Apple watch, you know, I love my apple watch. Do you do
now?
But now I'm, now I'm much older than that girl and now I'm thinking about getting,
I love mine, but I did look this morning how to set it up.
It's by default, it's always checking your heart. Right.
