Yeah, That’s the dream and already happening as far as heart rhythm abnormalities. But wearables are pretty lacking. For example, I have a resting heart rate of 40bpm due to intense exercise. Iwatch won’t register heart rates that low, but if I get an EKG I’m fine.

Additionally EKG’s puts leads all over your chest to get precise electrical measurements. A watch on your wrist isn’t going to be comparable, esp with things like sudden cardiac death. This article takes it even further as you need detailed imaging to really save these types of patients. Since we don’t yet know many of the underlying genetic variants or causes of sudden cardiac death. It’s more common than people realize and often goes undiagnosed or misdiagnosis because it’s hard to detect until too late.
