Noninvasive Pulmonary Capillary Wedge Pressure Estimation in Heart Failure Patients With the Use of Wearable Sensing and AI

Noninvasive Pulmonary Capillary Wedge Pressure Estimation in Heart Failure Patients With the Use of Wearable Sensing and AI

Remote hemodynamics-guided management of heart failure (HF) with implantable pulmonary artery pressure sensors has been shown to reduce HF hospitaliza…

UHN tests whether smartwatches can predict heart-failure outcomes

Researchers at Toronto’s University Health Network are midway through a groundbreaking study that is evaluating whether heart-failure patients can use Apple Watches instead of a cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) – specialized treadmills or bicycles based in medical facilities – to determine whether their condition is deteriorating. Additionally, researchers are applying AI to the data they’re collecting to predict whether patients are getting…
