Viz.ai Launches ECG Platform to Streamline Workflow for Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome

With the goal of bolstering workflow efficiencies in the assessment and management of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), Viz.ai has added Viz ACS to its AI-enabled Viz Cardio Suite.

Viz.ai said the new Viz ACS platform provides consolidation and access to electrocardiograms (ECGs) from ambulatory settings, emergency department as well as prior ECGs on a HIPAA-compliant mobile viewer. The access to current ECG data and a patient’s past clinical history of ECGs allows clinicians to have timely context for real-time assessments, according to Viz.ai.

When there is suspicion of a heart attack, Viz.ai said Viz ACS enables timely consults with interventional cardiologists and subsequent activation of the cath lab, if necessary, with one click on the Viz ACS platform.

“Viz ACS gives immediate access to ambulance and ED ECGs all in one place,” said Gregory Means, M.D., an interventional cardiologist based in Winston-Salem, N.C. “Instead of blurry text messages, I can coordinate with EMS, ED, and cath lab teams in a HIPAA-compliant environment and activate the cath lab only when needed. This saves time, avoids false alarms, and ensures patients are ready for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) as soon as they arrive.”
