HeartBeam’s Artificial Intelligence Algorithm Combined with Vectorcardiography (VCG) Outperforms Expert Cardiologists in Detecting Arrhythmias

DAIC

a medical technology company focused on transforming cardiac care through the power of personalized insights, today announced new study data demonstrating that HeartBeam AI combined with vectorcardiography (VCG) outperformed an expert panel of heart rhythm cardiologists in detecting atrial flutter. for EP panel).

The data was presented by Vivek Reddy , MD, Director of Cardiac Arrhythmia Services at The Mount Sinai Hospital , during the European Heart Rhythm Association (EHRA) conference in Berlin, Germany. for single-lead ECG) without sacrificing the ability to identify those individuals without atrial flutter (specificity of 98.7%

AVNRT TYPICAL FORM

ECG Guru

Let's first consider the heart rate: with a heart rate of 194 beats/min, the heart rate is too low for atrial flutter (1:1) (except in patients who have been pre-treated with medication), and the rate would be unusually high for atrial flutter with 2:1 conduction.

Boston Scientific Initiates AVANT GUARD Clinical Trial to Evaluate FARAPULSE Pulsed Field Ablation System as First-Line Treatment for Persistent Atrial Fibrillation

DAIC

Early treatment of persistent AF can reduce the risk of blood clots, stroke, and heart failure, and may prevent the disease from becoming permanent. Patients are often treated with AADs as frontline therapy for heart rhythm maintenance, though some can experience adverse effects and limited efficacy.

Syncope while on a treadmill

Dr. Smith's ECG Blog

He cardioverted to sinus rhythm, and a 12-lead was obtained. What is the diagnosis from the above rhythm strip? To me, it was clearly atrial flutter with 1:1 conduction. The rate of 280 is just right for atrial flutter. The waves look like atrial flutter waves, NOT like a wide ventricular complex.

The electrical conduction system [1] In schematic depiction of a normal sinus rhythm the P-wave represents atrial depolarization, the QRS complex symbolizes ventricular depolarization, and the T-wave indicates ventricular repolarization. Sinus tachycardia – sinus rhythm above 100 bpm is a sinus tachycardia.

The Boston Scientific announcement also reported the following: During a traditional ablation procedure, a catheter is guided to the interior of the heart and generates extreme temperatures – hot or cold – to destroy targeted areas associated with abnormal heart rhythms.
