Consumer wearables like Android Wear, Fitbit, and Apple Watch will generate two trillion health measurements this year—far too many for any human doctor to review. To help create the future of preventive medicine, we built DeepHeart, a novel deep neural network tested in multiple rigorous clinical studies. Below, you'll find four published, peer-reviewed research papers about DeepHeart.
A major challenge for AI in medicine is that labeled training data is costly, scarce, and closely-guarded. DeepHeart is a semi-supervised deep neural network that accurately predicts cardiovascular risk, but requires 10x less labeled data than conventional deep learning techniques.

Atrial Fibrillation, the most common abnormal heart rhythm, causes 1 in 4 strokes and frequently goes undiagnosed. In the mRhythm Study, DeepHeart detected atrial fibrillation with 97% accuracy (c-statistic) using optical heart rate sensors, setting the stage for cost-effective, broadly-deployed AF screening.

More than one billion people worldwide have hypertension and sleep apnea. In this study, DeepHeart detected both conditions with more than 82% accuracy using consumer wearables alone.
The first five ResearchKit apps lost 90% of their users in the first 90 days. By taking inspiration from popular consumer apps, we show it’s possible to improve retention by 5x, exceeding even Twitter and Instagram, with high retention across age groups.

At Cardiogram, we understand that sleep health is intricately connected to various aspects of our well-being. One intriguing area of study is the relationship between migraines and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Both conditions are prevalent and can significantly impact quality of life. But how exactly do they relate to each other? Let’s dive into the latest research to uncover this connection.
Dementia is a condition that affects millions of people worldwide, with symptoms ranging from memory loss to impaired thinking, affecting daily life. While age is the strongest risk factor for dementia, it is not an inevitable part of aging. Fortunately, research shows that lifestyle choices can significantly reduce the risk. Whether you’re in your 20s, 40s, or 60s, taking steps to maintain brain health is essential. Here are some strategies that may help you avoid dementia and keep your mind sharp for years to come.
Did you know that sleep apnea and high blood pressure often go hand in hand? Many people are unaware that poor sleep could be a key reason behind elevated blood pressure, which puts extra strain on your heart and body. If you’ve been diagnosed with hypertension or think you might have sleep apnea, this is something you’ll want to pay attention to.
Halloween is a time for costumes, spooky decorations and sweet treats, but for those watching their heart health, it can feel like a haunted house of unhealthy choices. With sugar overload and calorie-packed snacks, your cardiovascular system can take a hit. But fear not! With a little planning (and perhaps a dash of willpower), you can enjoy the festivities while making heart-friendly choices. Get ready for a frightfully fun time while keeping your heart as happy as a pumpkin on Halloween night — plus, we’ve got some fun cardiac facts to sweeten the deal.
