we all about smart boards and fitness, track us and living a healthy alive with wearables. if you need that little exit motivational push to get in gear for ship. often times the slicker and more comfortable alternative to click on hop. the right track us is the smart watch for many. they our lives type product, but in the medical world they have the potential to be a lot more than just that. how well do they work and do medical expos take them seriously. we got the chance to meet someone with 1st hand experience, so i send you out who smiled was, might have just saved his life. suddenly val, smart watch, went above and beyond, recently prevented a possible stroke. he was using it mainly for sports when he noticed irregularities and his heartbeat develop new to act. but when he visited the doctor, he was given the all clear device off. i'm card, you know? and then i went to the cardiologist who performed a long term, easy g,

3:03 am
but didn't find anything else and numbers. i thought it was an error. so i switched off the alarm because it was kind of annoying. was i thought i'd let you know if, if i could have had serious consequences for the 48 year old because the smart watch was right. a 2nd, b, c, g, and bon university hospital confirm what the graduates had picked up. but instead of missing, you can use the standard e, c, g, then reveal that i have something called atrial fibrillation. what did i know? i was asked several times and the cardiology department. why my watch having sounded the alarm. and so i had to tell them again, and again, i have actually disable the alarm myself. is that so i just always come on top of it, isn't it, isn't the sebastian has the cardiologist at the university hospital, but he has a good experiences with smart boss, health apps. he's convinced that potential is huge, especially for prevention. the data that these smart watches collect the easy
3:04 am
reading. they have very reliable the most common heart within this or there a risk. mia is called h or for relation and it's the leading cause of stroke worldwide. and this can be detected by smart watches, and then if we know that the patient has a, we can initiate treatment to prevent stroke, especially about has been in treatment ever since. and now we're so smart, what's regularly, which was a pretty good idea, is how it started playing off again. and the app was the 1st to notice to this one after that. so for us, it signaled reliably, every time you're having a truck regulation again, right now. so this maybe you should contact your doctors. apps then smiled was cons, replace a doctor, but they can certainly help by gathering valuable data, especially when it comes to cardiovascular diseases, which cause over 18000000 deaths the globally wearables and the i can also help
3:05 am
reduce risk by motivating us to eat healthy or exercise regularly to so i, so at least don't do this all that often. do you, i assistance going to use our data, they take the a i pen for example, a smart menu computer. it also has messages sense you reminders takes photos, plays music, and more. keeping your heart healthy could be so easy. but let's face it, it's not is it that maybe a i can help? how much protein? i have a cup of famines has 15 grams of protein. soon they say i will be able to scan food into this is nutrients use for me, for those looking to live a healthy life getting information on what you eat is incredibly important because
3:06 am
most people aren't aware of what they eat on a regular basis. they, they had breakfast 2 hours ago and perhaps didn't realize how many calories are in that muffin or in the pancakes that they consume. and then if they get an update on a regular basis throughout the day, i'm sure that this will make them more aware of their lifestyle choice. um, many ways to find out what constitutes that healthy diet. i'm gonna eat it, enjoy it. but does talking to, i really make a difference. in 41 is hands for, you know, smartphone required. the main restriction for our patients today is that the smartphones are they are available, but the interactions with our surroundings and the devices to record this is limited devices can one use us when food is overly unhealthy, all contains allergens added future. it could follow what you're consuming and keep

protection is a concern manufacturer. as a sure consumers that nothing is re quoted unintentionally. and that data isn't sold to 3rd parties about the fact that data is often stored in the cloud is very because it could fall into the wrong hands. so if you're looking to use a assistance, make sure to consider the data you're putting out there. it's not going to get done and we've got to thinking about data security like you have to way of how much it really benefits you know at all. i'm going to, it's one of the reasons i switched it off back then. if it doesn't help me, i'll leave it alone. and so less than, let's assume you're wearing a smart watch. how does it actually measure your heart rate? there are 2 different methods. optical pause measurement with lights and a heart rate sensor that requests electrical activity more than that. now. it's only gonna have to happen when it comes to accurate heart rate monitoring. we always recommend the classic test drops. it's an electronic busy, a logical recording device. they essentially detect the heart beats electrically,
3:09 am
so they get a direct recording of the heartbeat. but the problem with these, of course, is that you can't wear it all day or all week. you can talk about smart watches. on the other hand, i'm much more comfortable. the heartbeat is detected by the optical sensor, which i'm, it's a live signal to measure the pulse way, but it's not quite as accurate enough. so be it from the light is been absorbed by hemoglobin, a component of the blood from which we can derive the heart rate. but as it's a light source, everything that can interfere with light has an influence on the data quality. things like skin color, body, hair, touch shoes, or perhaps scar tissue based on not going to be the desktop is small watches don't work as well for people of color. that's way a team at google is experimenting with ultra sound, which would pick up the high speed in the year. probably a headphones,
3:10 am
irrespective of skin color, size reflections for strong movement inside the house, right? conventional variables often recalled hobbs acceleration of the values like calorie consumption for blood oxygen levels. i calculated using algorithms exactly how they were built is a trade secret about it. but in the end, the user only gets the results the fuse. but because you can't tell if it's actually high quality measurements, or how much has been calculated for that and for the t. v dot one is because we know that these devices can do wonders for motivation. for example, when swimming goes, remind me of my training program, but the wearables can also provide detailed patient data for doctors with a clear ads when it comes to convenience and prize a milestone for her patients. and the best case scenario, wearables can detect illnesses at an early stage in future. this obtained health data could be used to model digital twins of patients, organs, virtual models of

a patient's lungs, or hot, for example, buds to deliver realistic values. they must 1st be fed with patient data at children's hospitals in boston. it is that the forefront the digital twins of a human heart. thanks to this technology, the effects of different treatments can be tested without having to operate. surgery on children's hearts is considered extremely risky. boston's children's hospital is b, a heading the use of data the twins to develop treatment plans, specifically tailored to each time the at the forefront is dr. steve divine. to develop the 1st digital twin of a human ha. they're creating virtual twins of children. some are as early as newborn and performing the surgeries on the

virtual twin 1st deciding upfront what is best and then trying it out on the child . and in many cases, they only have one shot to save the child's life. and the results have been spectacular. ready ready ready ready dr. steve levi and started researching for the living hoc project around 10 years ago for very personal reasons. it's donna jesse suffered from a ria hobbs defect and had to undergo several operations as a child. not all of which could equally successful. she is now benefited from the research because now pace make us optimal settings can be tested in advance. and in virtual reality they can actually insert the pace maker. they can replicate her condition or thousands like her and try different pacing sequences on thousands of different versions of,
3:13 am
of the heart to figure out which sequence would work out best and then try it out and confirm on her rather than experiments directly on her. findings can then immediately be transferred to other hot patients, virtual therapy tests for the individual organs of just the beginning. though in future, everyone will have a digital twin at the side with a personalized health plan. and i think what will happen is you will get a virtual twin, which is a generic version of a human when you're born, it'll be quickly adapted to what we know about you at that point. and then as you get older and you get more diagnostics, more tests, it gets tuned. it might be some time before we all have a digital twin of ourselves. but until then, wearables and the aisle systems can help us stay fit and healthy for longer

provided, of course, that we actually take the advise and work out every now and then that's all for me by and see you next time. the name is nose available in the whole bag. save. wow. thank you so much for joining in. welcome to don't hold bad. a lot of people do that. it's all about saying it aloud. and sort of being nosy. they like good everyone to ok. mark prefer, i'm sorry, the award winning called cost as done called back. but we don't know what this
