Lightweight Wearable Chip for Real-Time Heart Attack Detection

Researchers at the University of Mississippi have developed a lightweight, energy-efficient chip implantable in wearables for real-time heart attack detection. Using AI and advanced mathematics, the chip analyzes ECGs to identify heart attacks with 92.4% accuracy, twice as fast as traditional methods. Its design allows integration into devices like smartwatches, potentially saving crucial time in diagnosis and treatment, reducing the risk of permanent damage. Future applications could extend to detecting other conditions like seizures and dementia.
