FDA Clears EchoNext, First AI Tool to Detect Structural Heart Disease from ECGs Before Symptoms Appear
By
Kristen B. Reed
Summary
The FDA has cleared EchoNext, a first-of-its-kind artificial intelligence tool developed by Pathway Labs that reads standard electrocardiograms (ECGs) to detect structural heart disease before symptoms appear. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death globally, and this tool represents a breakthrough in early detection. The article highlights a case where the tool spotted severe undiagnosed heart failure in a 45-year-old man who subsequently received a successful heart transplant.

· 3 pulledCardiovascular disease, the leading cause of death globally, has not yet had an early-detection test — until now.
EchoNext is an artificial intelligence tool that reads a standard electrocardiogram (ECG) and flags those at high risk for structural heart disease.
The new tool is credited with spotting severe, undiagnosed heart failure in a 45-year-old man who ultimately received a successful heart transplant.
