This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of the smartwatch electrocardiogram (ECG) in detecting atrioventricular block. A case study was conducted to demonstrate the use of wearable technology, specifically the ECG, in monitoring cardiac health outside of traditional clinical settings. The patient in question was a 71-year-old woman who was hospitalized due to a complete atrioventricular (AV) block. Her ECG recordings were taken with an Apple Watch, which accurately displayed the complete AV block. After undergoing coronary angiography, the ECG recordings taken with the Apple Watch demonstrated that the complete AV block had been correct. These results indicate that wearable technology, such as smartwatches, holds great potential for monitoring third-degree AV block in non-clinical settings. The findings of this study can add to the growing body of evidence supporting the use of wearable technology in cardiac monitoring during emergencies.

Bu çalışma, akıllı saat Elektrokardiyogramının (EKG) atriyoventriküler (AV) bloğu tespit etmedeki etkinliğini değerlendirmeyi amaçladı. Geleneksel klinik ortamların dışında kalp sağlığının izlenmesinde giyilebilir teknolojinin, özellikle de EKG'nin kullanımını göstermek için bir vaka çalışması yapıldı. Söz konusu hasta, tam AV blok nedeniyle hastaneye kaldırılan 71 yaşında bir kadındı. EKG kayıtları, tam AV bloğunu doğru bir şekilde görüntüleyen bir Apple Watch ile çekildi. Koroner anjiyografi sonrası Apple Watch ile çekilen EKG kaydında AV bloğunun tamamının düzeldiği görüldü. Bu sonuçlar, akıllı saatler gibi giyilebilir teknolojilerin, klinik dışı ortamlarda üçüncü derece AV bloğun izlenmesinde büyük potansiyel taşıdığını göstermektedir. Bu çalışmanın bulguları, acil durumlarda kardiyak izlemede giyilebilir teknolojinin kullanımını destekleyen giderek artan kanıtlara katkıda bulunabilir.
