In a study named JM Hearts and conducted on 2000 people, the reliability of the ECG application has been proven, as Professor Antoine Leenhardt of the Paris Hospital's Bichat Rhythm Unit tells us: "When the watch detects an arrhythmia, this was confirmed by electrocardiograms, but beware, the watch will not be able to interpret the plot sent by PDF, it is the cardiologist who will. The watch and the ECG application are therefore only indicators that must then be confirmed with health professionals. So be careful.

She could do even better in the future according to him. "It would be nice to have a heart rate monitor 24 hours a day, so hopefully, and schedule it for a few days or weeks, that would give a tremendous amount of phenomenal data, and open up horizons not only on atrial fibrillation but also on other cardiac arrhythmias, possibly more serious than joint fibrillation.
