HeartBeam Granted Patent for EKG Signal Transformation

 Patented Technology Allows HeartBeam AIMIGo™ Credit Card-sized Device to Enable a 12-lead ECG Anytime, Anywhere

 

HeartBeam, Inc. (NASDAQ: BEAT), a cardiac technology company that has developed the first and only 3D-vector ECG platform for heart attack detection anytime, anywhere, announced today that its patent that enables generation of a synthesized 12-lead ECG by the HeartBeam AIMIGo™ credit card-sized device was issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The innovation opens the pathway for a patient to record a set of signals using HeartBeam AIMIGo outside of a medical setting with a diagnostic synthesized 12-lead ECG immediately transmitted to a physician for review and diagnosis. Unlike single-lead ECG products currently in the marketplace, such as other credit card sized devices or smartwatches, the HeartBeam technology is intended to quickly and accurately help a physician identify a heart attack (myocardial infarction).

In the US, approximately 18 million individuals have coronary artery disease putting them at an increased risk for a heart attack and making them ideal candidates for remote patient heart attack detection. In contrast, the market for atrial fibrillation, the most targeted condition for detection by single-lead ECG technologies, is several times smaller. A 12-lead ECG is the standard of care for detecting any cardiac condition and is considered one of the essential tools for heart attack detection. No single lead ECG product currently in the marketplace is able to help diagnose a heart attack. HeartBeam’s technology will be the first and only 12-lead ECG solution that fits in a consumer’s wallet for use anytime, anywhere.
