Our take
Wearable devices that track and provide data on a patient’s cardio health have been around for a while, but diagnoses must still be made by a doctor. Health issues such as atrial fibrillation, bradycardia and tachycardia may be projected through heart-rate data, but this is useless without a doctor present.
AliveCor sells a wearable ECG device which works in cooperation with AI to detect a range of heart problems without a doctor present. The AI analyzes heart-rate data and instantly produces reports and diagnoses. The app also prompts users to describe symptoms that they are feeling, and the total information is then instantly sent to the user’s doctor.
The company has solid investment behind it, which supports the furthering of its mission to become a leading provider of cardiological care. Already, AliveCor's products have served over 3 million customers and are the number one doctor-recommended personal ECG devices.
