Understanding the Challenge

Accurate and timely assessment of left ventricular systolic function, measured by left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), is essential for optimal management and better patient outcomes1.

Nonspecific Symptoms

Reduced LV systolic function often causes fatigue, dyspnoe, and edema, which can be mistaken for other health issues and delay diagnosis5.

Lack of Awareness

Patients and primary care providers often miss the risk factors and early symptoms of heart failure (HF), delaying care and appropriate diagnostic evaluations4.

Limited Echo Availability

Many healthcare settings lack advanced diagnostic tools and expertise, restricting patient access to quality care. Consequently, some cases of reduced LVEF go undetected in primary care, underestimating its true prevalence1.

Heart Failure (HF) Overview

Prevalence:
  • Affects 1-2% of adults.
  • Over 10% prevalence in individuals aged 70 years or older (EU).
  • Expected to rise due to an aging population and improved survival rates (US)5.

Asymptomatic Reduced LVEF:
  • Affects 2.2-3.4% of the population (EU)3.

HF Hospitalizations:
  • 1.2 million hospitalizations in 2017 (US)5.

Economic Impact:
  • Costs projected to increase from $30.7 billion in 2012 to $69.8 billion by 2030 (US)5.

Prognosis in Community Studies6:
  • 1-year mortality rate: 20%.
  • 5-year mortality rate: 53%-67%.

The Role of Patient Screening​

Routine screening using the AI-augmented 12-lead ECG allows for swift assessment of LV function. This helps to accurately identify patients needing confirmatory echocardiography7.

PMcardio Implementation

PMcardio offers a rapid and accurate assessment of left ventricular (LV) systolic function. Utilizing advanced AI technology, it enables detection of reduced LVEF from a 12-lead ECG7.

AI-Driven LVEF Assessment

The AI algorithm can assess LV systolic function on the ECG, a capability beyond many physicians' skills.

Enhancing Efficiency

Analyzing the ECG via AI algorithm significantly reduces the time required to assess LV function, enabling faster clinical decision-making and timely referral.

Improving Accessibility

We are committed to making advanced cardiac diagnostics accessible to a wider range of healthcare providers, ensuring more patients benefit from accurate LV systolic function assessment.

Impact of PMcardio

Timely Diagnosis

Enables earlier screening, helps differentiate underlying causes of symptoms, and allows for early lifestyle modifications and treatment2.

Appropriate Treatment

Ensures more patients receive appropriate treatment based on guideline recommendations, increasing positive clinical outcomes3.

Reduced Hospitalizations

Early diagnosis and adequate treatment reduce acute exacerbations and complications of HF, minimizing hospitalizations3.

Cost Savings

Minimizes the need for advanced interventions and preventable hospitalizations, reducing overall healthcare expenditures.

Improved Patient Pathway

By identifying reduced LV systolic function early, we can create an improved patient pathway, ultimately reducing HF hospitalizations.
