Royal Philips, a global leader in health technology, and University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust (UHSussex) have completed a pilot project using Philips ePatch. The announcement marks the first NHS project monitoring heart patients with Philips wearable ePatch and AI-powered arrhythmia ECG analysis platform, Philips Cardiologs.
Dr Mark Tanner, the Consultant Cardiologist who led the project at UHSussex told Philips: “The results of this project have been overwhelmingly positive, both in terms of patient experience and making a diagnosis. What we saw was that using the ePatch and the AI-powered arrhythmia ECG analysis platform, Philips Cardiologs, can increase the likelihood diagnosing heart rhythm problems, especially if patients don’t experience symptoms daily.
Leveraging Philips leadership in innovation and UHSussex’ reputation for excellence in cardiac care, the project is yet another partnership milestone for the pair, reinforcing the shared committed to advance the diagnosis and treatment of heart problems.
