HeartSciences Announces Grant of Fundamental Patent by the European Patent Office Covering Assessment of Diastolic Function of the Heart Using AI-ECG

Retrieved on: 
Wednesday, April 24, 2024

Diastolic dysfunction (impaired cardiac relaxation) is a sensitive and crucial indicator of overall heart health, providing one of the earliest signs of heart disease, with onset typically occurring before symptoms.

Key Points: 
  • Diastolic dysfunction (impaired cardiac relaxation) is a sensitive and crucial indicator of overall heart health, providing one of the earliest signs of heart disease, with onset typically occurring before symptoms.
  • Diastolic dysfunction is caused by all common issues that affect heart function or that produce hypertrophy.
  • Today, measures of diastolic function of the heart need to be assessed in a specialist cardiology environment, typically using echocardiography-based imaging.
  • The United States Patent and Trademark Office has issued eight utility patents and one design patent to HeartSciences, with patent expiration dates ranging from March 2031 through August 2040.

Tuesday, March 26, 2024

Preoperative left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) is very common and one of the important causes of perioperative morbidity and mortality in cardiac and non-cardiac surgeries.

Key Points: 
  • Preoperative left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) is very common and one of the important causes of perioperative morbidity and mortality in cardiac and non-cardiac surgeries.
  • In the study, patients undergoing preoperative anesthesia evaluation for cardiac and non-cardiac surgeries were enrolled.
  • For patients indicated for preoperative echocardiography, LVDD was diagnosed and graded as per American Society of Echocardiography (ASE) guidelines and a MyoVista wavECG was also performed.
  • Based on these findings, 25 of the 60 non-LVDD patients could be safely excluded from referral to preoperative echocardiography.

HeartSciences’ Announces Peer-Reviewed Publication Evaluating Use of MyoVista® Technology to Detect Asymptomatic Left Ventricular Dysfunction in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes

Retrieved on: 
Tuesday, March 12, 2024

Recent guidelines propose N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (blood test for NT-proBNP protein marker) for recognition of asymptomatic left ventricular (LV) dysfunction (Stage B Heart Failure, SBHF) in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients.

Key Points: 
  • Recent guidelines propose N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (blood test for NT-proBNP protein marker) for recognition of asymptomatic left ventricular (LV) dysfunction (Stage B Heart Failure, SBHF) in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients.
  • Accordingly, the study sought to evaluate whether an AI-ECG model based on MyoVista® wavECG™ features was superior to NT-proBNP, as well as a conventional screening tool—the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) HF risk score, in SBHF screening among patients with T2DM.
  • This independent study provides evidence of the clinical and diagnostic capabilities of AI-ECG, and specifically our MyoVista wavECG technology, to potentially advance current standards of care for heart screening in diabetic patients.” said Andrew Simpson, Chief Executive Officer of HeartSciences.
  • “Globally cardiovascular disease accounts for approximately one-third of all annual deaths and AI-ECG is set to change medicine by providing the opportunity to detect heart disease earlier and more effectively, not only for diabetic patients, but also for a significant number of at-risk patients.
