guidance and expertise as we continue to build on our successes and
provide healthcare professionals nationwide with more effective

FDA clearance for a machine learning algorithm that can predict
acute heart failure, the world's leading cause of hospitalization.
And in May, Implicity revealed ground-breaking research

"I could not be more excited to join the Implicity team at this
important juncture," said Hunt. "I've witnessed firsthand the
healthcare ecosystem's need for innovative solutions that can
enable providers to monitor remote cardiac devices more
