From time to time, we come across news with the theme of “Apple Watch saved lives”. Although this is not a medicinal product, it seems it can offer serious life-saving advice and is worth the money, so to speak.
Marcella Lee is a newscaster. According to the information in PhoneArena, Lee set out for a ski vacation with his 16-year-old son. When they reached the place, they also performed some medical supplements as it was cold. For example, the use of ibuprofen. Thus, they thought that they could get used to the environment in a short time.
After a while, the mother noticed that her son was not in a condition to ski, he looked quite exhausted, and later on, both his lips and fingertips began to turn blue. At night, in a place far from home, suddenly encountering such a situation causes anxiety and it is important to be able to act calmly.
Lee thought of the Apple Watch, and he immediately wore it on his son's wrist and began measuring oxygen saturation. The level the clock showed was 66%, so it was a frightening level. He was immediately taken to the emergency room, and the measurements made there showed that this level decreased by 1%. So the clock had made an accurate determination.
Tests at the hospital also revealed that the teenager had a build-up of fluid in his lungs, and he was diagnosed with high altitude pulmonary edema. What would have happened if the mother had not taken her child to the hospital at that moment and had let him sleep? Had such a thing been done, officials said, a period of coma could have ensued as a result.
While Marcella Lee states that she is pleased with the Apple Watch for giving a timely warning, of course she is also happy that her son is in the recovery process.
