摘要
Wearable technology has advanced significantly, and the proposed health benefits have been widely touted. Most of the discussion has been surrounding the identification and diagnosis of asymptomatic atrial fibrillation. However, the heart monitoring functions of the wearable technology can also identify other abnormalities as well. We present the first case of wearable technology identified bradycardia diagnosed as the primary presentation of complete heart block. Wearable technology has advanced significantly, but still poses questions regarding its use in screening for rare conditions. One remaining challenge is balancing the desire to screen for rare asymptomatic conditions without overburdening emergency departments with patients responding to alarms on their devices.
