Mayo Clinic Uses AI to Detect Hidden Heart Conditions Early
-
Mayo Clinic is using AI to analyze electrocardiograms (ECGs) to predict heart conditions like atrial fibrillation, amyloidosis, aortic stenosis, and more.
-
AI-ECG can predict low ejection fraction to detect heart failure, including in pregnant women to catch peripartum cardiomyopathy.
-
AI-ECG can detect early cardiac amyloidosis before symptoms appear, allowing for earlier treatment.
-
AI-ECG shows promise for early detection of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, which often has no symptoms until late stages.
-
Early detection of these heart diseases can improve outcomes and quality of life through earlier treatment and lifestyle changes.
