I was involved in a malpractice case a couple of years ago as a consultant. The case involved an emergency physician who was being sued for failure to make a rapid diagnosis of an ST-segment elevation ...

Identifying an acute myocardial infarction on the 12-lead ECG is the most important thing you can learn in ECG interpretation. Time is muscle when treating heart attacks. Missing a ST segment ...

An artificial intelligence algorithm for ECG interpretation (AI-ECG) is superior to conventional, guideline-recommended STEMI criteria for identifying patients with chest pain who have an occluded ...

SAN FRANCISCO, CA—Artificial intelligence-based ECG interpretation (AI-ECG) outperformed standard decision-making when it came to detecting angiographically confirmed STEMI across three primary PCI ...

GUILDFORD, UK — Obtaining an ECG in the prehospital setting makes it more likely patients with ST-elevation MI (STEMI) will get reperfusion therapy and, in both STEMI and non-ST-elevation MI (NSTEMI) ...

Powerful Medical, a leader in AI-driven cardiovascular diagnostics, announces that its PMcardio STEMI AI ECG model has been granted Breakthrough Device Designation by the US Food and Drug ...

Sooner was not better when using ECG to determine candidates for urgent coronary angiography after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), according to the PEACE study from Europe. The earlier the ECG ...

The most serious form of the acute coronary syndrome, ST segment elevation myocardial infarction, or STEMI, most often results from complete thrombotic occlusion of a major epicardial coronary artery.

Using artificial intelligence (AI) to analyze electrocardiograms (ECG) improved detection of severe heart attacks, including those that presented with unconventional symptoms, or atypical ECG patterns ...
