AI IDs Cardiac Arrest Patients Who Can Benefit From Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator
Researchers in the Smidt Heart Institute at Cedars-Sinai (Los Angeles, CA, USA) have developed a clinical risk assessment algorithm that can better identify patients at highest risk of treatable sudden cardiac arrest - and thus, a better understanding of those patients who would benefit from a defibrillator.

Enzyme-Based Point-of-Care Test Could Rapidly Identify Stroke Patients upon Arrival at Hospital
Researchers at Cornell University (Ithaca, NY, USA) have developed a new test that could rapidly identify stroke patients upon arrival at the hospital, so that more patients could receive a CT scan and the clot-dissolving medicine tPA within the critical window. The researchers plan to develop this enzyme-based technology into a range of diagnostic tests that can be performed anywhere using a handheld device. Their initial research has shown that the test effectively diagnoses stroke and concussions. More...25 Mar 2022
