How Well Does Apple Watch Detect your Health
Conditions
  • An Apple Watch is widely used as a fitness
    tracker across the world. It is going advanced
    day by day with each upcoming generation. The
    Apple Watches of the latest generation have
    features to monitor some new health conditions.
    Lets see what more it can do.
  • Dont consider an Apple Watch as a medical device
  • You have to remember that an Apple Watch is only
    a smartwatch, not your medical doctor. Having an
    Apple Watch doesnt mean you no longer need a
    doctor for your medical conditions. You should
    never depend on a digital device or the internet
    for your physical and mental health conditions.
    If you see a different reading on your watch, you
    should immediately consult your doctor. Moreover,
    this post will help you learn what an Apple Watch
    can tell you about your health.

  • High and low heart rates
  • An Apple Watch tells about your heart rate in the
    following ways
  • The Apple Watch Series 1 or newer combines an
    optical sensor to measure heart rate.
  • The Apple Watch Series 4 or newer (not the first
    SE model) comes with an electrical heart sensor.
    This sensor only works with the ECG app. 
  • An optical heart rate sensor is responsible for
    your high and low heart rates. The Apple Watch
    with an optical heart rate sensor notifies you
    when the heart rate goes more than 120 bpm for 10
    minutes or goes below 40 bpm for 10 minutes.     
  • You can use the electrical heart rate only with
    the ECG app. It measures heart rate quite
    accurately. If you have irregular heart rates,
    you can quickly generate an ECG using the app.
    With the apps ECG, you can consult your doctor.
    Please note that a measure of average heart rate
    varies from person to person. 
  • Abnormal heart rhythms
  • Apart from measuring heart rate, you can also use
    the Apple Watch to measure the hearts rhythm. It
    also measures atrial fibrillation (AFib) in case
    of an irregular beat in the hearts upper
    chambers. If you experience it, you should
    immediately consult your doctor as it can be
    severe for you. But remember that your smartwatch
    can also show you false data about your health.
    That means you can receive notifications about
    AFib even if you have no AFib. Most importantly,
    the heart attack condition isnt monitored by the
    Apple Watch.

  • Inform about loud environments 
  • Some Apple Watches inform you about the intensity
    of noise around you. The Noise app offers this
    facility. The Apple Watch SE and later supports
    the Noise app. The app notifies you when your
    background noise level goes more than 80dB (a
    certain level). In that way, it saves your
    hearing power. 
  • Fall Detection  
  • In daily life, one can fall anytime and anywhere,
    whether it be a home, a market, a road, or
    anything else. Mostly, older people are prone to
    slip or fall. Thanks, Apple, for developing
    smartwatches. An Apple Watch will let you know
    when an individual from your family with Apple
    Watch falls in an emergency. But here is
    something important to know. It is not necessary
    that your smartwatches will detect when someone
    falls or slips. 
  • In conclusion, the Apple Watch Series 6
    introduced a blood oxygenation sensor, a wellness
    feature, not a medical doctor. However, this
    feature can be changed in the future. Apple
    Watches may be advanced in the future that will
    detect some more health conditions.
