Detection of acute coronary occlusion with a novel mobile electrocardiogram device: a pilot study.

Aims: Many portable electrocardiogram (ECG) devices have been developed to monitor patients at home, but the majority of these devices are single lead and only intended for rhythm disorders. We developed the miniECG, a smartphone-sized portable device with four dry electrodes capable of recording a high-quality multi-lead ECG by placing the device on the chest. The aim of our study was to investigate the ability of the miniECG to detect occlusive myocardial infarction (OMI) in patients with chest pain.

Automatic triage of twelve-lead electrocardiograms using deep convolutional neural networks: a first implementation study.

Aims: Expert knowledge to correctly interpret electrocardiograms (ECGs) is not always readily available. An artificial intelligence (AI)-based triage algorithm (DELTAnet), able to support physicians in ECG prioritization, could help reduce current logistic burden of overreading ECGs and improve time to treatment for acute and life-threatening disorders. However, the effect of clinical implementation of such AI algorithms is rarely investigated.

Automated detection of immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome via quantitative EEG.

Objective: To develop an automated, physiologic metric of immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome among patients undergoing chimeric antigen receptor-T cell therapy.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective observational cohort study from 2016 to 2020 at two tertiary care centers among patients receiving chimeric antigen receptor-T cell therapy with a CD19 or B-cell maturation antigen ligand. We determined the daily neurotoxicity grade for each patient during EEG monitoring via chart review and extracted clinical variables and outcomes from the electronic health records.

Electrocardiogram Devices for Home Use: Technological and Clinical Scoping Review.

Background: Electrocardiograms (ECGs) are used by physicians to record, monitor, and diagnose the electrical activity of the heart. Recent technological advances have allowed ECG devices to move out of the clinic and into the home environment. There is a great variety of mobile ECG devices with the capabilities to be used in home environments.

EEG-based grading of immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome.

CAR-T cell therapy is an effective cancer therapy for multiple refractory/relapsed hematologic malignancies but is associated with substantial toxicity, including Immune Effector Cell Associated Neurotoxicity Syndrome (ICANS). Improved detection and assessment of ICANS could improve management and allow greater utilization of CAR-T cell therapy, however, an objective, specific biomarker has not been identified. We hypothesized that the severity of ICANS can be quantified based on patterns of abnormal brain activity seen in electroencephalography (EEG) signals.

Physiological Assessment of Delirium Severity: The Electroencephalographic Confusion Assessment Method Severity Score (E-CAM-S).

Objectives: Delirium is a common and frequently underdiagnosed complication in acutely hospitalized patients, and its severity is associated with worse clinical outcomes. We propose a physiologically based method to quantify delirium severity as a tool that can help close this diagnostic gap: the Electroencephalographic Confusion Assessment Method Severity Score (E-CAM-S).

Design: Retrospective cohort study.
