APPLE WATCH SAVES ANOTHER LIFE: DELHI-BASED WOMAN THANKS APPLE CEO TIM COOK AND HIS TEAM

Apple Watch has come to the rescue of many people over the years and recently it helped a 35-year-old Delhi-based woman to avoid a major issue. Sneha Sinha, 35, is a policy researcher, and in April she went through something that could be easily called a close-call.

Apple Watch Alerts Woman About Her Heart Issue: What Happened

The woman suffered from Atrial Fibrillation (AFib) – a rapid and abnormal heart rhythm which is basically a big health issue for anyone, let alone for a woman in her mid-thirties. Sneha has been quoted in multiple reports, talking about her issue that stuck on late evening on April 9.

She has talked about facing abnormally rapid heart rate and noticed that the condition didn’t improve after a few minutes. Then she decided to wear her Apple Watch 7 model on the wrist to determine the issue and see if the wearable can detect anything of concern.

The Apple Watch straight away advised her to visit the doctor, which she ended up ignoring initially. But things got worse later that evening, when the Apple Watch alerted Sneha to visit the doctor right away because of her heart rate crossing 230 bpm which is not ideal in any condition.

She rushed to the nearest Emergency Centre in her area where the doctors examining her could not read her pulse. They had to eventually give her three rounds of direct shock of up to 100 joules to get her heart beating again. Once that was successfully done, Sneha was shifted to ICU to monitor her condition and ensure that she doesn’t have a relapse for the rapid heart rate.

Apple Watch Saved Me Today…Can’t Thank Enough

Apple Watch uses advanced health tech to detect these signs and alert the user. Sneha got a close-up experience of its ability and was thankful that the Apple Watch alerted her about the issue which was examined and taken care of by the doctors. “Had the Apple Watch not alerted me of the serious condition around midnight, I would not have gone to the hospital and would have lost my life,” she was quoted saying in a report.

She also said that measuring the heart rate would never have crossed her mind but thankfully she decided to wear the Apple Watch which did the rest of the job. “Whatever I had to say to the doctors was based on Apple Watch readings,” she added.

Apple CEO Tim Cook Receives The Letter

After returning back home from the hospital, Sneha decided to send an email to CEO Tim Cook, thanking him and his team for making the Apple Watch a reliable fitness gear that can record accurate data. She even got a response back from Cook where he thanked her for sharing the story and was relieved that she got medical attention and the right treatment for her sudden health issue.
