"Apple Watch's VO2 Max Alerts: Uncovering Hidden Heart Conditions"

Researchers have found that low VO2 Max notifications on Apple Watches could potentially aid in the early diagnosis of heart conditions. A seemingly healthy 40-year-old man received low VO2 Max alerts on his Apple Watch Series 6, leading to further tests and a diagnosis of familial nonischemic cardiomyopathy. This condition can result in heart failure, and the early detection through Apple Watch alerts may have played a crucial role. While more investigation is needed, this discovery suggests that Apple Watches could potentially help identify heart conditions in the future.
