Artificial intelligence for hemodynamic monitoring with a wearable electrocardiogram monitor.

Background: The ability to non-invasively measure left atrial pressure would facilitate the identification of patients at risk of pulmonary congestion and guide proactive heart failure care. Wearable cardiac monitors, which record single-lead electrocardiogram data, provide information that can be leveraged to infer left atrial pressures.

Methods: We developed a deep neural network using single-lead electrocardiogram data to determine when the left atrial pressure is elevated.

Detecting QT prolongation from a single-lead ECG with deep learning.

For a number of antiarrhythmics, drug loading requires a 3-day hospitalization with continuous monitoring for QT-prolongation. Automated QT monitoring with wearable ECG monitors would enable out-of-hospital care. We therefore develop a deep learning model that infers QT intervals from ECG Lead-I-the lead that is often available in ambulatory ECG monitors-and use this model to detect clinically meaningful QT-prolongation episodes during Dofetilide drug loading.

QTNet: Deep Learning for Estimating QT Intervals Using a Single Lead ECG.

QT prolongation often leads to fatal arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death. Antiarrhythmic drugs can increase the risk of QT prolongation and therefore require strict post-administration monitoring and dosage control. Measurement of the QT interval from the 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) by a trained expert, in a clinical setting, is the accepted method for tracking QT prolongation.
