Withings watches

[NigelG69]

I would recommend everybody with any heart issue to go and buy a withings watch you can do your own ecg on it and it will detect any heart issues you might have 10 out of 10

Thank you.

It won't detect any heart issues. It has a single lead ECG function which may detect issues such as Afib, but like any wrist born device, it is never entirely accurate.

[NigelG69 in reply to Stentsandrun]

Yes but it's probably the best one you can buy as long as it gives you a warning that's the main thing

[Stentsandrun in reply to NigelG69]

They are sometimes referred to as anxiety watches, due to false readings, as attested by the reply that a device was giving false low readings against a pacemaker in another post. The way in which they work is inherently prone to false readings, unfortunately. They are fine as long as you don't rely on them, which is sort of the point if you are using them for medical purposes? I am not sure about this one but many others have a disclaimer in the instructions. I believe they are devices on the market which have 2 or 3 lead ECG functions which may be better, but then again you have to be able to interpret them
