SENSORA™ Structural Murmur helps flag early signs of valvular heart disease through the detection of structural murmurs.
A study published in Circulation, an American Heart Association journal, demonstrated Eko's AI-enabled SENSORA™ Platform more than doubles valvular heart disease (VHD) detection sensitivity over traditional methods in primary care.
4Our novel suite of algorithms goes beyond identification. It identifies and characterizes heart sounds, distinguishing if they’re systolic or diastolic, and innocent or structural.
A study published in JAHA (Journal of the American Heart Association) reveals that Eko’s FDA-cleared algorithms, trained on over 15,000 heart sound recordings, outperform clinicians. In real clinical environments, they demonstrate a sensitivity of 98% and specificity of 91% when detecting clearly audible murmurs in adults.
