As the debate over healthcare insurance coverage continues, Senate Republicans on Thursday unveiled the revised version of the Better Care Reconciliation Act (BCRA) to repeal and replace Obamacare after the first attempt was met with strong opposition within their own party. The changes in the revised version are aimed at appeasing more moderate Republicans and expanding aid for lower-income people.
Cardiologs Technologies SAS announced that it has received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clearance of its Cardiologs ECG Analysis Platform, a cloud-based cardiac monitoring-analysis web service powered by artificial intelligence (AI). Cardiologs aids physicians in screening for atrial fibrillation (AFib) and other arrhythmias using long-term ambulatory electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring recordings. The Cardiologs system is also CE marked in Europe.

iRhythm Technologies Inc. announced a collaboration with the Stanford Machine Learning Group that has resulted in the development of a deep learning algorithm capable of expert-level detection of 14 cardiac output classes, including 12 arrhythmias as well as sinus rhythm and noise from artifact. The collaboration leveraged the iRhythm data science and clinical teams’ expertise in electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis, as well as iRhythm’s expansive labeled electrocardiogram (ECG) dataset to produce an arrhythmia detection algorithm. The classifications include atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, complete heart block, second degree AV block and ventricular tachycardia, among others.
