How Havirov Hospital Improved Cardiac Triage and Outcomes with PMcardio

Havirov Hospital in the Czech Republic transformed acute cardiac care with PMcardio. Facing growing pressure to rapidly identify and route patients with suspected acute coronary syndrome (ACS), the hospital launched a six-month pilot to improve diagnostic speed, coordination, and patient outcomes.

By deploying PMcardio across the hospital, regional EMS teams, and the primary PCI centre in Trinec, Havirov created a connected, AI-supported pathway from first medical contact to catheterisation. Over the pilot, more than 5,000 patients were assessed through AI-supported ECG analysis, with 241 STEMI and STEMI-equivalent emergencies identified.

This case study shows how regional hospitals can modernize emergency cardiac workflows, improve triage accuracy, and build stronger collaboration across campuses and care settings.

What You'll Learn in the Full Case Study:

• How Havirov Hospital improved ACS triage and transfer decisions with AI-supported ECG interpretation
• How PMcardio was deployed across hospital teams, EMS crews, and a PCI centre in just months
• How 5,000+ patient assessments created a complete, auditable record of clinical activity.
• How STEMI-equivalent cases were identified earlier—even when standard ECG criteria were missed
• How the hospital achieved zero unnecessary PCI transfers while improving regional coordination

Outcome for Cardiologists

• Earlier visibility into critical cases through real-time ECG alerts and faster identification of STEMI / STEMI-equivalent patients
• Higher diagnostic confidence with AI support that helps detect subtle coronary occlusions standard criteria may miss
• Better cath lab prioritization by receiving more accurate referrals and clinically relevant escalations
• Reduced unnecessary consults and transfers thanks to zero false-positive PCI transfers during the pilot
• Complete clinical traceability with auditable ECG reports and documented decision pathways
• Stronger collaboration across networks by connecting cardiologists with EMS teams and referring hospitals in one workflow
