Scientists and researchers are continuously studying how big data, machine learning, and analytics can be applied to improve cardiac patient outcomes and make preventive medicine more effective.
In 2014, the Harvard School of Public Health entered lifestyle data and the long-term health status of more than 95,000 individuals to pinpoint the most significant indicators for developing cardiovascular disease. The results informed the creation of a predictive analytic tool, the Healthy Heart Score, used by physicians to rate an individual’s risk of heart disease.
Four years later, a team of researchers from Yale University utilized similar methods to create prediction models for people with a recent diagnosis of heart failure. This data will help both clinicians and patients understand the factors that contribute to increasing the lifespan of individuals living with heart disease.
