Remote Cardiology Solutions
Founded in 2010, AliveCor, Inc. is transforming cardiological care using deep learning. The FDA-cleared KardiaMobile device is the most clinically validated personal ECG solution in the world. KardiaMobile provides instant detection of atrial fibrillation, bradycardia, tachycardia, and normal heart rhythm in an ECG. Kardia is the first AI-enabled platform to aid patients and clinicians in the early detection of atrial fibrillation, the most common arrhythmia and one associated with a highly-elevated risk of stroke. AliveCor’s enterprise platform allows third party providers to manage their patients and customers’ heart conditions simply and profitably using state-of-the-art tools that provide easy front-end and back-end integration to AliveCor technologies.
Recent Milestones/Expansion Plans
To date, AliveCor products have served more than one million customers around the world, and recorded more than 85 million ECGs. This vast data set gives the company a meaningful advantage in building new AI-based services to drive a new age of advanced and improved cardiological care. AliveCor believes that comprehensive services coupled with AI-powered diagnostics will have an ongoing impact on cost, quality, and most importantly on responsiveness: resolving false positives and improving response time in medical emergencies.
