Impact of Cardiac Treatment with Artificial Intelligence

Posted , 1 user is following.

AI has been trending in the past with EKG, CT-Scan, and MRI. When it comes to invasive treatment, there was always a risk of internal organ damage and possibly death. The concept of a minimal invasive treatment gives comfort to not only the patients, but the healthcare industry as a whole.

Heart disease is beyond an epidemic. It is one of the leading causes of death in the United states. As the Mankato Clinic suggests, “Understanding the risk factors and ailments associated with heart disease is an important step to take to prevent yourself, or loved ones, from becoming statistics of the disease.” (Clinic, 2017), with this “Carnegie Mellon University developed the HeartLander.” (Morgan, 2019) This form of Artificial intelligence is designed to administer invasive treatment to the heart treatment minimizing the damage potential damage to the heart itself. The mobile device “Enters the chest through an incision; adheres to the epicardial surface of the heart; autonomously navigates to the specified location; and administer the therapy.” (Riviere, 2016). When being treated for any cardiovascular disease or surgery safety comes first. This will minimize the mortality rate with patients, giving them the confidence and comfort in therapy. Assurance is usually the first step in healing from perilous therapy.

It is important to know this artificial intelligence/telerobotics is a work in progress. The impact has already made change in medical approaches to cardiovascular care with minimum invasiveness to reduce the risk that it gives to patients. It is said that “Medical telerobotic is an emerging field expected to have a significant impact on healthcare. Indicative of its potential is the fact that telerobotics has already been considered for a wide range of applications and medical disciplines, which is apparent from the present review.” (Avgousti, et al., 2016). Health facilities are relying more on artificial intelligence for accurate diagnoses and treatments. AI has been trending in the past with EKG, CT-Scan, and MRI. When it comes to invasive treatment, there was always a risk of internal organ damage and possibly death. The concept of a minimal invasive treatment gives comfort to not only the patients, but the healthcare industry as a whole.
