    aFib false positives? Any needless anxiety stories?

    There have been lots of heartwarming, amazing stories about the Watch catching aFib and helping people out. I'm wondering about the flip side… where the Watch suggests or indicates aFib and it turns out NOT to be. I'd imagine lots of anxiety could be created, unnecessary trips to the ER, etc...

    What do you think of Apple Watch's ECG functionality and its use of artificial intelligence for detecting atrial fibrillation (AFib)?
