HeartBeam (NASDAQ: BEAT) is a cardiac technology company that has developed the first and only 3D-vector electrocardiogram for heart attack detection anytime, anywhere. “A recent study shows that risk factors for cardiovascular (‘CV’) disease are rising among young adults… ‘Yet medical treatment rates for CV risk factors are ‘surprisingly low among young adults,’ study investigator Rishi Wadhera, MD, with Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Harvard Medical School in Boston, told theheart.org/Medscape Cardiology. In the article, Wadhera noted that the findings are ‘extremely concerning.’ He stated that ‘we’re witnessing a smoldering public health crisis. The onset of these risk factors earlier in life is associated with a higher lifetime risk of heart disease and potentially life threatening… It’s critically important that young adults speak with their health provider about whether – and when – they should undergo screening for high blood pressure, diabetes and high cholesterol,’” reads a recent article that contains excerpts from the Medscape publication and comments by Rishi Wadhera. “Working closely with healthcare providers is a key focus of HeartBeam’s technology. By applying a suite of proprietary algorithms to simplify vector electrocardiography (‘VECG’), the HeartBeam platform enables patients and their clinicians to determine quickly and easily if symptoms are due to a heart attack so care can be expedited if required.”
