“We’re empowering health-care providers with unprecedented clinical depth in a compact portable form factor,” AliveCor CEO Priya Abani says about the development of its AI-enabled electrocardiogram (ECG) sensors, which provide medical-grade heart data anytime and anywhere. In this Vanguards of Health Care episode, Abani sits down with BI analyst Matt Henriksson for an in-depth discussion about the expansion of AliveCor’s Kardia 12L device, which gives physicians a smaller, more portable ECG option. The company has widened the device’s indications to 39 cardiac conditions, established a new Category III reimbursement code and continues to train its algorithm using 1 million ECGs. Abani also talks about how her time at Amazon.com influenced her perspective on the interaction of technology and the human experience.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

AI in medicine is best understood as a powerful tool and a conditional partner that can enhance care when tightly supervised by clinicians, but it becomes a problem when used as a replacement, deployed without oversight, or embedded in biased and opaque systems. Whether it functions more as a partner or a problem depends on how health systems design, regulate, and integrate it into real clinical workflows. Where AI Works Well Decision support and diagnosis: AI can read imaging, ECGs, and lab patterns with very high accuracy, helping detect cancers, heart disease, and other conditions earlier and reducing some diagnostic errors. Workflow and documentation: Tools that draft visit notes, summarize records, and route messages can cut administrative burden and free up clinician time for patients. Patient monitoring and triage: Algorithms can watch vital signs or wearable data to flag deterioration, triage symptoms online, and guide patients through care pathways, which is especially valuable with clinician shortages. Risks and Problems Errors, over-reliance, and "automation bias": Studies show clinicians sometimes follow incorrect AI recommendations even when the errors are detectable, which can lead to worse decisions than if AI were not used. Bias and inequity: If training data underrepresent certain groups, AI can systematically misdiagnose or undertreat them, amplifying existing health disparities. Trust, explainability, and liability: Black-box systems can undermine shared decision-making when neither doctor nor patient can understand or challenge a recommendation, and they raise hard questions about who is responsible when harm occurs. Impact on the Doctor–Patient Relationship Potential partner: By handling routine documentation and data crunching, AI can give clinicians more time for conversation, empathy, and shared decisions, supporting more person-centered care. Potential barrier: If AI outputs dominate visits or generate long lists of differential diagnoses directly to patients, it can increase anxiety, fragment communication, and weaken relational trust. How To Keep AI a Partner, Not a Problem Keep humans in the loop: Use AI as a second reader or coach, not a final decision-maker; clinicians should retain authority to accept, modify, or reject suggestions. Demand transparency and evaluation: Health systems should validate tools locally, monitor performance across different populations, and disclose AI use to patients in clear language. Align incentives with patient interests: Regulation, reimbursement, and malpractice rules should reward safe, equitable use of AI—not just speed, volume, or commercial uptake. In practice, AI in medicine becomes a true partner when it augments human judgment, enhances relationships, and improves outcomes; it becomes a problem when it is opaque, biased, or allowed to replace clinical responsibility.

Show Notes: Lili Barouch, a cardiologist, went to medical school at Johns Hopkins. After moving to Baltimore, she became a cardiologist specializing in heart failure and transplant. She joined the faculty in 2003 and worked on basic science research, research lab, and inpatient and outpatient care for heart failure and transplant patients. Lili stayed in this role for about 10 years before transitioning to outpatient cardiology. She moved to Howard County, Maryland, where her children have grown up. Founding the Sports Cardiology Program Lili started becoming more athletic around 20 years ago. This led to her interest in sports cardiology, a field geared towards athletes. She founded the sports cardiology program at Johns Hopkins and a training program for future sports cardiologists. She talks about building a new program from scratch, how the field of sports cardiology has grown significantly. Sports Cardiology Screening Sports cardiology involves screening athletes, including younger athletes, high-level athletes, and masters athletes. Screening includes evaluating athletes for risk factors, symptomatic athletes, those with known cardiac diseases, and those with significant changes in the heart due to high-level exertion. Lili talks about findings through screenings in sports cardiology including congenital heart defects, a family history of cardiac death at a young age, or abnormal ECGs. She mentions that there is no single standard throughout the country for what type of screening is required for college athletics. The general Sports Med and team physician screen everyone to a certain extent. Sports cardiologists typically are involved in second-level screening, for example, high blood pressure is an area that needs to be addressed, especially in younger athletes. By understanding the specifics of each type of screening and addressing any underlying conditions, athletes can better prepare for their future athletic careers. Stress Tests and ECG Abnormalities The conversation turns to the importance of stress tests and ECG abnormalities in sports. Athletes often tend to be symptom minimizers, ignoring minor symptoms that don't seem to affect anything at the time. However, many athletes who develop cardiac arrests report having some symptoms before they report them later. Lili talks about finding the balance between not wanting to alarm patients and not wanting them to ignore symptoms. Guidelines in Sports Cardiology Sports Cardiology is its own field. New guidelines have come out this year about shared decision making, which helps athletes decide whether to continue playing or not. The previous guidelines were more paternalistic, with doctors telling athletes whether they can play or are not allowed to play. This led to many athletes hiding symptoms or being disqualified. Newer guidelines have looked at more recent research studies to determine if restricting individuals actually helps them. Many places found that it's okay for athletes to participate in ways that were not possible 10 or 15 years ago, but it also affects their psychological state severely if they get disqualified from their sport. Changes to the Heart Lili discusses the changes to the heart of elite athletes, including professional athletes, major sports leagues, and Olympic athletes. She explains that the higher level of an athlete, the more likely they are to have more people involved in their care. Studies on elite athletes, such as Tour de France cyclists and Olympic athletes, have shown that those who do high levels of endurance exercise, such as cycling, long-distance running, swimming, and cross-country skiing, tend to have an increase in the size of their heart chambers. The Health Benefits of Exercise The American Heart Association guidelines recommend a minimum of two 30 minute strength training workouts and at least three 30 to 45 minute aerobic exercise workouts of moderate intensity per week. The minimum recommended amount of exercise is two and a half hours per week, spread out throughout the week. For endurance athletes, this may be more than two hours a day. Lili talks about the benefits of exercise, highlighting that there are marginal additional gains up to three to four times the minimum recommended amount. The most significant gain is when one goes from zero hours per week to two or three hours per week of total exercise, up to about eight hours per week. This leads to greater fitness, benefits in blood pressure, cholesterol, reducing the risk of diabetes, and longevity. However, beyond eight or 10 hours per week, there are no additional health benefits. Joining the Race Lili started running in 2006, initially as a fitness exercise but eventually becoming an athlete due to her autoimmune disease, rheumatoid arthritis. She joined the running club and was challenged by a friend to do a triathlon. She initially struggled with swimming, but eventually learned to swim and competed in several distances, including the full Ironman. Lili has run six marathons, mostly short and medium distance triathlons, and has achieved significant accomplishments such as qualifying for the Boston Marathon in 2018 and competing in the Boston Marathon in 2018. However, she also faced joint issues due to her rheumatoid arthritis, which led her to focus more on long distance triathlons. The Growth of the Sports Cardiology Program Lili founded a sports cardiology program based on her clinic, which primarily focuses on athlete patients. The program is also developing a National Registry of masters athletes to study the impact of high exercise levels on athletes' health. The program involves training fellows in cardiology who are interested in sports cardiology. A fellowship program was developed for one fellow, and the first formal graduates completed the program last year. Lili talks about an annual meeting called "The Care of the Athletic Heart" in Washington, DC, where they organize formal talks, educational symposia, and case presentations to help others get into the field. She also talks about resources and funding for the program.

The use of smartwatches in detecting congestive heart failure could revolutionize early diagnosis and treatment, offering a promising tool for patients and health care providers alike.Congestive heart failure affects 26 million people worldwide and is a leading cause of death globally, often striking with warning signs that go unnoticed.Symptoms of congestive heart failure include chest pain, shortness of breath, weight gain, and a persistent cough or wheezing. Despite these indicators, many people fail to recognize them until the condition becomes severe.Current detection methods for congestive heart failure include blood tests, X-rays, stress tests, CT scans, and ECGs.A study by the Heart Rhythm Society suggests that smartwatches could offer a new method of detection. The study found that by using ECG information, researchers achieved a 90% success rate in identifying congestive heart failure, potentially allowing for earlier intervention.While smartwatches have already been proven to detect atrial fibrillation, a medical professional should interpret the information that the devices capture.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Hundreds of approved devices use artificial intelligence to help physicians diagnose patients faster and more accurately. Brooke & Associates is a legal and regulatory advisory firm that helps medical device makers get AI-powered devices through FDA pre-market approval.In Episode #40 of the MedTech Speed to Data podcast, Key Tech's Andy Rogers and Lei Zong speak with the firm's managing member, Jason Brooke, about the FDA's latest guidance to medical device developers for integrating AI into their products.Need to knowAI's role in MedTech — AI identifies otherwise undetectable data patterns that humans can apply in clinically meaningful ways.FDA's AI staffing surges — The agency accelerated hiring to develop internal AI applications and support pre-market reviews of new AI-powered devices.Radiological imaging leads the pack — More than half of 900+ FDA-approved AI-based products are in radiological imaging.Other fields are catching up — Cardiology and neurology applications are more recent entrants in AI-powered devices, but their numbers are growing.The nitty-grittyThe FDA published “Artificial Intelligence-Enabled Device Software Functions: Lifecycle Management and Marketing Submission Recommendations” in early 2025 to explain how it will address AI's adaptive nature in medical device regulation.“This guidance is really focused on a total product lifecycle approach,” Brooke explains.Good management practices govern traditional medical device development, so documenting the development process in pre-market submissions is not as critical. AI model development is different because the model can evolve once in service.“There's a level of information that's necessary in submissions for AI-based technologies that we haven't had to provide to the FDA before,” Brooke says. “They want a lot of information,” Brooke says. “That's an area I think may be problematic because a lot of that is somewhat trade secret.”AI-specific guidance touches almost every aspect of a company's submission, from risk assessment to labeling to cybersecurity. Brooke highlighted how the FDA's approach to AI data management could change development practices to ensure the independence of training and validation data sets. For example, companies must separate their clinical sites geographically and temporally.“This guidance gets into the weeds,” Brooke says. “It's important for companies to understand this if they're developing an AI-based product.”Data that made the difference:In addition to discussing the FDA's proposed AI regulations, Brooke discusses the challenges companies face in bringing AI-powered medical devices to market.“If you take away anything from this podcast,” Brooke says, “it's that there's a lot of burden associated with developing an AI-based medical device. If you don't need to, then I wouldn't recommend doing it.”Slow and steady wins the race. Do your homework, plan for the FDA review, and then engage the agency at the right time to get them on board.Thoroughly characterize your data sources. Devices like ECGs can vary by vendor, model, site location, patient, and many other factors. The FDA wants to know how this variability could affect the downstream AI model.Develop a strong clinical validation plan.

N Engl J Med 2013;368:1379-1387Background In 2013, it had been established that primary PCI for STEMI was the preferred strategy. Yet many patients did not have prompt access to primary-PCI capable hospitals and transfer delays could impact outcomes. The vast majority of patients with STEMI who present to non-PCI facilities do not subsequently get primary PCI within recommended times.Cardiology Trial's Substack is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support our work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Delays led to the development of prehospital care, such as ECGs in the ambulance, and pre-hospital delivery of fibrinolysis. The Strategic Reperfusion Early after Myocardial Infarction (STREAM) study evaluated whether a fibrinolytic-therapy approach consisting of prehospital or early fibrinolysis with contemporary antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapy, coupled with timely coronary angiography, provides a clinical outcome similar to that with primary PCI in patients with STEMI who present early after symptom onset.Patients Eligible patients had a) STEMI within three hours, b) could not have primary PCI within one hour of first medical contact. No formal exclusion criteria were listed in the main manuscript.Baseline Characteristics A total of 1892 patients underwent randomization in 1:1 fashion. The mean age of patients was 59 years. Less than 15% of both groups were older than 75 years. Females were 20%. More than 90% of patients were Killip class 1. Less than 10% of enrolled patients had had prior CHF, MI, or PCI.Procedures Patients were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to fibrinolysis followed by timely coronary angiography or primary PCI. All patients were transferred to a PCI-capable hospital; for all non-PCI community hospitals participating in the study, a well-developed hub-and-spoke relationship with a PCI-capable site was required.The fibrinolytic strategy included early use of concomitant antiplatelet and anticoagulant medications, as well as additional discretionary glycoprotein IIb/IIIa antagonists. Tenecteplase was administered in a weight-based dose and was combined with low-molecular-weight enoxaparin, weight and age adjusted.Antiplatelet therapy consisted of clopidogrel in a 300-mg loading dose (omitted for patients ≥75 years of age) followed by 75 mg daily and aspirin (150 to 325 mg) immediately followed by 75 to 325 mg daily. Urgent coronary angiography in the fibrinolysis group was permitted at any time in the presence of hemodynamic or electrical instability, worsening ischemia, or progressive or sustained ST-segment elevation requiring immediate coronary intervention, according to the investigator's judgment.Endpoints The primary end point of the trial was a 30-day composite of death from any cause, shock, congestive heart failure, or reinfarction. Single efficacy end points as well as safety end points consisting of ischemic stroke, intracranial hemorrhage, nonintracranial bleeding, and other serious clinical events were recorded.The statistical analysis plan was complicated. A sample size of 1000 patients per study group was planned, and the rate of the primary end point in the primary PCI group was projected to be 15.0%. After one-fifth of patients had been enrolled, trialists amended the protocol to reduce the dose of tenecteplase by 50% in patients older than 75 years because of excess ICH. ECG criteria for inferior MI was also changed to require at least 3 mm (up from 2) of ST elevation in two contiguous leads.This trial was designed as a proof-of-concept study. All statistical tests were of an exploratory nature.Results The median time delay from the onset of symptoms to first medical contact and randomization was similar in the two groups ( 61-62 minutes). The median times between symptom onset and start of reperfusion therapy (bolus tenecteplase or arterial sheath insertion) were 100 minutes and 178 minutes, respectively (P

An AI-ECG Algorithm for Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction Guest: Jae Oh, M.D. Host: Anthony H. Kashou, M.D. Diastolic function assessment is crucial in diagnosing, managing, and predicting outcomes in various cardiac conditions. It provides insight into heart health, particularly in diagnosing heart failure. Shortness of breath, a common patient complaint, often indicates elevated diastolic filling pressure if linked to a cardiac condition. Echocardiography is the primary method for assessing diastolic function, but it is operator-dependent and not always available. In contrast, ECGs are standardized and widely accessible. Although subtle changes in ECGs are not easily detectable by the human eye, artificial intelligence can identify specific conditions reflected in the ECG. By training an AI model with labeled ECGs based on diastolic function determined through echocardiography, researchers achieved high accuracy in detecting diastolic dysfunction. AI-enhanced ECGs can significantly impact the identification of both asymptomatic and symptomatic cardiac conditions, potentially streamlining diagnostic strategies and reducing costs. Future developments may enable patients to monitor their heart health using simple wearable devices, enhancing the management of heart failure and other conditions. Topics Discussed: Your special clinical academic interest is echocardiography. Why are you interested in ECG AI in diastolic function? What is diastolic function and why is it important to assess diastolic function in clinical practice? Why did you decide to create AI-ECG for diastolic function assessment? What did you find and how do you envision AI ECG for diastolic function be used in clinical practice?
