  • Publication number: 20230343464
    Abstract: A method for determining cardiology disease risk from electrocardiogram trace data and clinical data includes receiving electrocardiogram trace data associated with a patient, receiving the patient's clinical data, providing both sets of data to a trained machine learning composite model that is trained to evaluate the data with respect to each disease of a set of cardiology diseases including three or more of cardiac amyloidosis, aortic stenosis, aortic regurgitation, mitral stenosis, mitral regurgitation, tricuspid regurgitation, abnormal reduced ejection fraction, or abnormal interventricular septal thickness, generating, by the model and based on the evaluation, a composite risk score reflecting a likelihood of the patient being diagnosed with one or more of the cardiology diseases within a predetermined period of time from when the electrocardiogram trace data was generated, and outputting the composite risk score to at least one of a memory or a display.

  • Publication number: 20230087969
    Abstract: A method for providing treatment recommendations for a patient to a physician is disclosed. The method includes receiving health information associated with the patient, determining a first risk score for the patient based on the health information using a trained predictor model, determining a second risk score for the patient based on the health information and at least one artificially closed care gap included in the health information using the predictor model, determining a predicted risk reduction score based on the first risk score and the second risk score, determining a patient classification based on the predicted risk reduction score, and outputting a report based on at least one of the first risk score, the second risk score, or the predicted risk reduction score.

  • Publication number: 20210076960
    Abstract: A method and system for predicting the likelihood that a patient will suffer from atrial fibrillation is provided. The method includes receiving electrocardiogram data associated with the patient, providing at least a portion of the electrocardiogram data to a trained model, receiving a risk score indicative of the likelihood the patient will suffer from atrial fibrillation within a predetermined period of time from when the electrocardiogram data was generated, and outputting the risk score to at least one of a memory or a display for viewing by a medical practitioner or healthcare administrator. The system includes at least one processor executing instructions to carry out the steps of the method.

  • Publication number: 20100087738
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a system and method for quantifying cardiac dyssynchrony relate to capturing images of the heart over time as it beats, generating heart function profiles for discrete portions of the myocardium from the captured images, the heart function profiles each pertaining to a heart function parameter as a function of time, and performing cross-correlation on the generated heart function profiles to yield a cross-correlation function that identifies a time delay at which the heart function profiles temporally correlate most closely, the time delay being indicative of a degree of cardiac dyssynchrony.
