Publication number: 20240081653Abstract: Systems, methods, devices, and techniques for estimating a heart disease prediction of a mammal. An electrocardiogram (ECG) procedure is performed on a mammal, and a computer system obtains ECG data that describes results of the ECG over a period of time. The system provides a predictive input that is based on the ECG data to a predictive model, such as a neural network or other machine-learning model. In response, the predictive model processes the input to generate an estimated heart disease predictive characteristic of the mammal. The system outputs the estimated heart disease prediction of the mammal for presentation to a user.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Applicant: MAYO FOUNDATION FOR MEDICAL EDUCATION AND RESEARCHInventors: Itzhak Zachi Attia, Paul A.
