AI heart doctor: can a computer outsmart cardiac arrest?

NCT ID NCT05890716

First seen Jan 11, 2026 · Last updated Apr 28, 2026 · Updated 13 times

Summary

This study is testing a new artificial intelligence (AI) program called Willem that can read electrocardiograms (ECGs) — the test that records your heart's electrical activity. The goal is to see if the AI can detect dangerous heart rhythms as accurately as a heart specialist. Over 5,000 people with known or suspected heart disease will have their ECGs reviewed by both the AI and a cardiologist. If successful, this technology could help doctors catch heart problems faster and prevent serious events like sudden cardiac arrest.
