Doctors say Apple Watch helped save the life of a 32-year-old man who experienced a sudden medical crisis

Doctors say if 32-year-old William Monzidelis hadn't received the Apple Watch notification when he did, he may not have survived his medical emergency.

  • William Monzidelis, a 32-year-old resident from Westchester, New York, says his life was saved in part thanks to the Apple Watch he was wearing that day.
  • According to NBC New York, Monzidelis was working at his family-run bowling alley when he started bleeding. When his Apple Watch notified him that his heart rate was reaching alarming levels, he had his mother drive him to the hospital.
  • Doctors say the Apple Watch may have saved Monzidelis' life since he was healthy prior to the incident, and may have ignored his symptoms as something less serious.

“I was seizing in the car and bleeding all over the place, from my mouth, my rectum,” Monzidelis told NBC. "I lost so much blood that I needed a transfusion for the anesthesia to travel to my brain and put me out for the surgery."
