First automated detection of a cardiac arrest using a commercially available smartwatch: a case report
Although this controlled end-of-life setting does not represent the circumstances of an OHCA, this case demonstrates the feasibility of detecting true cardiac arrest using a commercial available smartwatch. Prospective studies in real-world OHCA populations are needed to assess clinical performance and practical applicability.
