Death Calculator: AI to Predict Date of Death Based on ECG

The UK’s National Health Service (NHS) is set to conduct a groundbreaking experiment: beginning mid-next year, patients in two London wards will be able to discover their estimated life expectancy.

The tool behind this innovation, known as AIRE (AI-ECG Risk Estimator), uses a standard electrocardiogram to predict a person’s risk of death within the next 10 years, achieving an accuracy rate of 78%.

AIRE leverages artificial intelligence to detect subtle patterns in the heart’s electrical signals and matches these with genetic data on heart tissue.

This allows the algorithm to not only assess current heart disease risk but also anticipate conditions like heart failure and arrhythmia long before they develop clinically....<<<Read More>>>...
