Dr. Waqaas Al-Siddiq, CEO and Founder of Biotricity, has designed a direct-to-consumer service to shift healthcare from a reactive to a preventive model by simplifying and accelerating access to remote cardiac screening. Applying AI to sift through patient data allows the cardiologist to focus on clinically relevant information and to identify sporadic, intermittent heart issues that are often difficult to detect using traditional heart screening techniques. Waqaas predicts an expansion of specialized solutions using AI and large datasets to support clinicians and patients in the drive to identify early signs of disease.
Waqaas explains, "The thing that we've been focused on is, as you know, heart issues. We've talked extensively about heart issues, which are the number one killer. And so what we've done now is we've collected this massive dataset, but we're trying to look at the nuances of those needles in a haystack. So it's not about the individuals who have arrhythmias to catch. It's about the ones who are very, very sporadic and intermittent, something that happens once every four months. Is there a way to predict that? Can we grab additional data from the patient about their environment, about their history, to get a more holistic view of the patient? "
"Often, with a massive amount of data in a set, you can get into prediction, but you need a more holistic view. Our focus has now been on now that we've captured 90% of the scenarios, the last 10% are incredibly complicated, and how do we leverage that? How do we use our data to basically get into those specialized nuances?"
