O estudo da Mayo Clinic mostra que a IA poderia permitir uma triagem precisa e barata para a fibrilação atrial

sarah JonasResearch Results

Um novo estudo de investigação da Mayo Clinic mostra que a inteligência artificial (IA) pode detectar os sinais de um ritmo cardíaco irregular — fibrilação atrial(FA) — em um eletrocardiograma, mesmo que o coração esteja em ritmo normal no momento do teste. Em outras palavras, o eletrocardiograma ativado por IA pode detectar fibrilação atrial recente que tenha ocorrido sem sintomas ou que seja iminente, potencialmente melhorando as opções de tratamento. Essa pesquisa poderia melhorar a eficiência do eletrocardiograma.
