we had patients come in complaining their smart watch had high readings. after testing they usually had something unusual or indicative. but they were also large... or had other signs.
running an EKG is cheap and easy (might not be cheap to pay for, but it's not an MRI!). i still like patients having more access to health data - legibly - for them. if they were doctors they'd see signs by skin health, etc. the watchs are overall a net positive imo.
.mris are cheap too but a headache to schedule cause everyone needs the machine and there might only be 1 or 2 in a hospital.
