STAR Mapping™
Rhythm AI is a medical software development company creating innovative solutions in 3D cardiac mapping to assist physicians in the management of patients with cardiac arrhythmia. Our initial focus has been on the successful development of new ways to locate the areas within the heart that may be responsible for the most common heart rhythm disorder: atrial fibrillation (AF).
Persistent AF Explained
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a type of heart disorder marked by an irregular or rapid heartbeat. Persistent AF is one of three main types of the condition. In persistent AF, symptoms may last longer than seven days, and your heart’s rhythm is unable to regulate itself. Symptoms include:
Symptoms may appear on the first day that an individual experiences AF but may not realise that it is caused by AF. When the symptoms become more persistent (experiencing AF consecutively for seven days or more), AF may become more difficult to treat. In some patients AF can also be asymptomatic, which means the patient is not experiencing any symptoms and, in this scenario, ablation treatment is not recommended, unless they have associated problems like heart failure.
Treatment
Ablation, also known as catheter ablation, is a treatment that aims to control or correct certain types of abnormal heart rhythms.
STAR Mapping™
STAR Mapping™ is an AI technology used in catheter ablation of AF that replicates the logical, deductive, process applied to electrical signals, which are collected by the cardiac catheters already used in the mapping procedure.
Company Information
RHYTHM AI is founded on world-leading research from Barts Heart Centre, London, UK and focused on the $5bn Atrial Fibrillation (AF) market.
