Apple Watch helps doctor save a woman's life on flight
An elderly woman on a flight suffered a medical emergency, but an off-duty doctor saved her life using an Apple Watch. The doctor borrowed the device and used its Blood Oxygen software to assess the woman's oxygen levels. The woman had shortness of breath and was unresponsive, with a history of ischemic heart disease and diabetes. The doctor monitored her oxygen levels and the airline crew provided oxygen support. With the doctor's assistance and the crew's quick response, the woman's condition improved and she was taken to the hospital upon landing.
