HeartBeam (NASDAQ: BEAT) a medical technology company focused on transforming cardiac care by providing powerful cardiac insights, announced that a peer-reviewed article in JACC: Advances demonstrated that a risk prediction algorithm incorporating the credit card-sized HeartBeam ECG device can accurately identify heart attack risk in patients presenting with chest pain.
HeartBeam said the proof-of-concept study evaluated 184 patients and found that the algorithm achieved an “area under the curve” (“AUC”) of 86.5% using a single HeartBeam ECG reading combined with patient risk factors and symptoms, rising to 92.9% when a personal, symptom-free baseline ECG was available for comparison. The company said the results support heart attack detection as a future indication for the HeartBeam System and advance its broader clinical program.
