Study: Artificial Intelligence allows the discovery of structural defects from ordinary heart draw

Researchers have found that an artificial intelligence instrument can convert a regular investigation into the doctor’s clinic to a tool to detect structural problems in the hearts of patients. Structural heart problems are defects in the structure of the heart, whether congenital (present from birth), or obtained with age. These problems affect the heart valves, walls, rooms or muscles, according to the study published by the magazine “Nature”. The Echonext AI instrument available to the public, analyzes the usual electric card data (ECG), known as ‘Hearting Logging’, to identify patients who need to undergo an echo -cho scan, which is also a surgical examination of ultrasound, to detect valves, muscle tissue and other structural defects. “We have all learned at the Faculty of Medicine that you cannot discover structural heart disease of an electrocardiogram.” He added: “We believe that artificial intelligence the electrical planning plan has the ability to provide a completely new exam model,” note that the “Eco Nicks” program uses the cheapest electrical scheme to know who should investigate the most expensive ultrasound. The researchers concluded that 13 cardiologists investigated 3 thousand and 200 of the photos of an electrocardiogram, and discovered the presence of structural heart problems at a rate of 64% boat accuracy, a 77% decline, which was achieved during the Eco Night instrument. The researchers said that structural heart disease affects 64 million people around the world, and 75 million valve diseases, and costs in the United States alone are more than $ 100 billion annually.
