New AI tool can predict fatal heart rhythm with 80% accuracy
The AI tool called VA-ResNet-50 was developed by a team led by the University of Leicester in the UK. In their study, published in the European Heart Journal – Digital Health, the tool was used to examine Holter electrocardiograms (ECGs) of 270 adults taken during their normal daily routine at home between 2014 and 2022.
In four out of every five cases, the AI tool correctly predicted which patient's heart was capable of ventricular arrhythmia. Pic: Reuters
