AI reads your Heart's future: new study aims to predict heart attacks from simple ECG

NCT ID NCT07163767

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This large observational study involving 150,000 people tests whether artificial intelligence can predict new heart attacks by analyzing electrocardiogram (ECG) images. The AI model, called AMIdECG, looks at past ECG data that was considered normal to see if it can forecast a future acute myocardial infarction. The goal is to develop a non-invasive, low-cost screening tool for early heart attack risk detection.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to

If successful, this AI tool could help doctors predict heart attacks earlier using routine ECG tests, potentially saving lives.

What could go wrong

This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. The AI model may not be accurate enough for real-world use, and results need further validation.
