Real-time heart rate tracking quickly detects irregular rhythms associated with arrhytmia and AFib.
ECG app records the electrical pulses passing through your heart to identify abnormalities in the cardiac cycle.
Blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) levels indicate respiratory or cardiac distress when dropping below standard thresholds.
So with the Apple Watch, you get an integrated overview of vital health signals – exactly what‘s needed for timely diagnosis and preventive care!
