Echocardiography is the examination of the heart’s internal structure and function by sound waves (ultrasound). Heart failure is achieved by these tests, but these tests are not normally part of a routine physical examination. In this case, access to ecodiography is limited. Limited access to ecodiography can also lead to a late diagnosis, which means late diagnosis. A digital healthcare company collaborates with the Mayo Clinic in the hope that doctors will make a difference in whether patients on routine medical visits are at risk of heart attacks and strokes. Can be done in a normal examination A new ECG-based algorithm is being developed in collaboration with Mayo Clinic. Eko is known as a company aiming to create a more powerful device for the detection of heart failure by integrating artificial intelligence into the ECG. This ECG-based algorithm, developed in conjunction with Mayo Clinic, will allow doctors to detect heart failure in a standard treatment. How is it working? The algorithm analyzes the 15-second ECG data collected from the digital stethoscope during our physical examination. Medically, it will make it easier to identify heart failure, or identifying a weakened heart will also point out measures to take. Head of Cardiovascular Medicine at the Mayo Clinic Fried Heart failure means that the heart pump is weak, Paul Paul Friedman said in a statement. This may cause shortness of breath, swelling or sudden death. Therefore, such serious diseases need to be diagnosed directly. Available at home The algorithm is designed to work with Eko’s digital stethoscope. The handheld device can be placed on the left side of the patient’s chest and can collect both heart sounds and ECG data. ECG data can be used more easily during routine examinations. At the same time, the device can be used by patients at home and the data, including the findings of the algorithm, can be sent to healthcare professionals. Times By analyzing the electrical activity of the heart, the algorithm can detect that the heart is pumping far less blood than it should in each cycle, Brain says Brain Rinker, a columnist for Business Times.
