What does a heart attack look like on apple watch?
I just got an Apple Watch that has ECG features, and I'm a bit curious. If someone is having a heart attack, what does it typically look like on the Apple Watch's ECG display?

The Apple Watch can show irregular rhythms like Afib, but it cannot detect an actual heart attack. Spending a lot of money on smartwatches is fine, but a proper ECG at a local lab only costs around 200-300 rupees. If you have chest pain, skip the watch and go to a hospital immediately.
My father's Apple Watch showed a high heart rate warning, but it did not alert us to his actual heart attack; he had to be diagnosed by doctors at the clinic. The watch is good for tracking daily steps, but for sudden chest pressure or pain, we must rely only on medical professionals.
An Apple Watch cannot diagnose a heart attack at all, as it only measures heart rate and basic ECG rhythms. When I visited my cardiologist at Apollo, he clearly told me not to rely on smartwatches for emergency symptoms. If you ever feel chest tightness or breathlessness, go to a proper hospital immediately.
An Apple Watch doesn't actually show a heart attack; it can only detect irregular heartbeats like atrial fibrillation. I use mine for fitness, but we can't trust it for major emergencies. If you have sudden, severe chest pain or left arm numbness, please rush to the nearest doctor immediately.
A smartwatch cannot detect heart attacks, only certain rhythm issues. When my teenager had sudden palpitations, we checked his watch, but the doctor explained that a proper 12-lead hospital ECG is the only safe way. If there is any chest heaviness or breathing trouble, please go to the hospital immediately.

Apple Watch se heart attack nahi samajhta, ho na. Woh sirf irregular heartbeat batata hai, actual cardiac arrest ya blockage nahi detect kar sakta. Agar chest me tight feel ho raha hai aur bahut sweat aa raha hai, toh watch mat dekho, haan na, turant hospital jao.
