South Korean startup unveils AI that predicts heart attacks
A South Korean startup has developed an AI platform that can predict heart attack, Yonhap reports.
Digital health startup HolmesAI Co. has launched CLholmes, an AI-powered diagnostic platform capable of detecting 21 types of cardiac arrhythmia and predicting the risk of cardiac arrest within 24 hours.
Developed in collaboration with professors Lee Hyung-cheol and Lee Hyun-hoon of Seoul National University Hospital, the system analyzes ECG data and integrates with wearable devices such as smartwatches. This enables continuous monitoring, early detection of warning signals, and real-time alerts to patients, physicians, and emergency centers.
The platform earned an Innovation Award at CES 2025 in Las Vegas. Building on this success, HolmesAI recently opened a New York office to expand globally.
The company says its goal is to advance a prevention-focused health care ecosystem that extends beyond hospital walls.
Earlier, Qazinform News Agency reported that a spider venom-based drug had entered trials for heart attacks and strokes.
