HeartBeam Presents Positive Results on its Artificial Intelligence Capabilities for Detecting Arrhythmias
April 12, 2024 — HeartBeam, Inc., a medical technology company focused on transforming cardiac care through the power of personalized insights, today announced new data demonstrating that applying the company’s artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to vectorcardiography (VCG) showed considerably improved performance in the detection of atrial flutter over single-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) and similar performance to 12-lead ECGs, the standard for diagnosing atrial flutter. This marks the first scientific presentation on the company’s deep learning algorithm, HeartBeam AI. 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. In the study, HeartBeam AI with VCG demonstrated a 28% improvement over single-lead ECG in the detection of atrial flutter cases (sensitivity of 91.0% for VCG vs. 71.2% for single-lead ECG) without sacrificing the abilit
