The New ECG Apple Watch Could Do More Harm Than Good

Why would someone use an ECG if they&#x27;re not experiencing any symptoms? I&#x27;ve had an ECG twice in my life - as it turned out both times were a result of panic attacks. But I also have a family history of heart issues. Meanwhile I have a friend who suffers from AFib and this could be an invaluable tool for him.<p>I guess the bottom line is this isn&#x27;t a toy, it&#x27;s a medical device used to provide important diagnostics for potentially serious medical situations. I trust people would treat it as such.
