HeartSciences’ MyoVista® wavECGTM Selected to be used in Irish Heart Screening Evaluation
August 24 2023 - 9:00AM
Heart Test Laboratories, Inc. d/b/a
HeartSciences (Nasdaq: HSCS; HSCSW) (“HeartSciences” or the
“Company”), an artificial intelligence (AI)-based medical
technology company focused on transforming ECGs/EKGs to save lives
through earlier detection of heart disease, today announces that
its MyoVista® wavECGTM has been selected by PanaceaFlo Ltd to be
used in Dublin, Ireland in its heart screening evaluation study.
The main objective of the study is to establish a cardiovascular
risk screening program and integrated care hub pathway. If
successful, the program is expected to roll out nationally in
Ireland, in conjunction with the Irish Health Elevator Program,
focusing on community-based screening and early intervention of
cardiovascular risk in line with the Irish public health system
(HSE) “Stayleft, Shiftleft10X” transformation program to move to
preventative rather than acute care.
It will initially screen approximately 250 members of the
general public, including Garda Siochana officers, in Dublin,
Ireland, in collaboration with the Innovation Value Institute
(IVI), Maynooth University College, Kildare.
Andrew Simpson, CEO of HeartSciences, stated, “We are delighted
that the MyoVista wavECG has been chosen as part of a major
frontline heart screening evaluation program. It further validates
the enormous commercial opportunity for the MyoVista and the role
of AI ECG. Heart disease is placing considerable strain on health
systems worldwide and is the largest health and cost burden. I
believe that preventative testing using AI ECG will be the key to
saving lives and reducing cardiology outpatient backlogs, waiting
list times and system costs. Our ultimate objective is for the
MyoVista to become a fixture in frontline healthcare to help
physicians make better and earlier referral decisions for at risk
patients."
About HeartSciences
Heart Test Laboratories, Inc. d/b/a HeartSciences is a medical
technology company focused on applying innovative AI-based
technology to an ECG (also known as an EKG) to expand and improve
an ECG’s clinical usefulness. Millions of ECGs are performed every
week and the Company’s objective is to improve healthcare by making
an ECG a far more valuable cardiac screening tool, particularly in
frontline or point-of-care clinical settings. HeartSciences’ first
product candidate for FDA clearance, the MyoVista® wavECGTM, or the
MyoVista®, is a resting 12-lead ECG that is also designed to
provide diagnostic information related to cardiac dysfunction which
has traditionally only been available through the use of cardiac
imaging. The MyoVista® also provides conventional ECG information
in the same test. The business model, which involves the use of the
MyoVista® Device and consumables for each test, is expected to be
“razor-razorblade” as the electrodes used with the MyoVista® are
proprietary to HeartSciences, and new electrodes are required for
every test performed. For more information, please
