AI spots stealth heart attacks that standard tests miss
NCT ID NCT06910436
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at 1,500 adults with suspected acute coronary syndrome but no clear ST elevation on their ECG. Researchers will test whether an artificial intelligence model can correctly identify those who actually have a blocked artery (occlusion myocardial infarction). They will also measure how the time from diagnosis to treatment affects heart muscle damage. The goal is to see if AI could help doctors act faster and reduce heart injury.
