Dear Apple (3 min) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fOHj5kGU4fYHelping Your Patients Identify Early Warning Signs Take an ECG with the ECG app on Apple Watch https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208955 An electrocardiogram (also called an ECG or EKG) is a test that records the timing and strength of the electrical signals that make the heart beat.

New Apple Watch study aims to cut blood thinner use by AFib patients https://appleinsider.com/articles/22/08/29/new-apple-watch-study-aims-to-cut-blood-thinner-use-by-afib-patients
The Apple Watch is being used as part of a study to determine if it is possible to cut down the use of expensive blood thinners used to prevent strokes and atrial fibrillation. The seven-year study, which has secured $37 million in funding from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, aims to tackle the use of blood thinners, a medication typically used to prevent atrial fibrillation (AFib). It is thought that between 2.5 million and 5 million people in the U.S. are affected by AFib, which can potentially result in a stroke, heart failure, and death. Blood thinners are the common method of treatment, but it can cause problems including dangerous bleeding. Sustained use of blood thinners can be a health risk in itself, and also expensive, so a reduction in using them could help cut costs to patients as well as save lives.
