For example, a patient makes the decision to lose weight and downloads an app that syncs with the Fitbit bracelet. The bracelet will track the patient's steps, heart rate and provide the ability to enter meals taken throughout the day. Throughout the day, while walking to work, the patient's heart rate exceeds 115 beats per minute. The patient could use the data obtained to discuss options with their doctor. The patient may need to be referred to a cardiologist for further testing, but without the patient being able to view their heart rate, they may never have been aware of a possible heart problem.
