Demilade Adedinsewo | Yvonne Commodore-Mensah | Aubrey Grant

There has been a rapid increase in technological advancements in the healthcare industry—such as telehealth, biometric monitoring technologies (BioMeTs) which includes wearables, and artificial intelligence (AI)/ Machine learning (ML). These technologies have already begun to transform biomedical research, with an increasing body of scientific evidence it will very likely transform how we provide healthcare, more specifically – cardiovascular care soon. However, there is growing concern that these technologies may inadvertently worsen existing health disparities by propagating biases inherent in existing data and clinical care processes.

Over the last several years, the practice of cardiovascular care has evolved dramatically, with the development and adoption of digital care. The development and integration of artificial intelligence has revolutionized the field of electrophysiology. The Heart Rhythm Society (HRS) will release a series of perspective articles in conjunction with HRX2024. In this session, panelists will discuss the current state of the art in AI as well as share insights on how best to implement AI to ensure smooth integration into cardiac arrhythmia workflows.

10+ years of “point solution” pilots, and over $100B venture capital later, the digital health implementation “playbook” is being rewritten. The acceleration of generative AI in a capital-constrained environment, alongside demands for value-based care models, are changing the way we design clinical workflows, train staff, onboard patients, launch programs, and measure success. In this panel we will explore how technical advances and economic pressures are shaping the way that companies and health systems design, launch, and scale digital health solutions.

Tony Fiola | Payal Cramer | Krystyna Monticello

There has been a significant increase in the volume of data produced by patients with the litany of wearables on the market. The ability to share data between patients and providers has become easier with the advent of patient portals associated with electronic medical records. But the core question of data ownership remains—who owns these data? Data ownership is complex and important for patient empowerment. But what does the law say? Can data be co-owned by the appropriate entities involved in a patient’s care? What are the legal nuances of data ownership? And are the cybersecurity measures in place sufficient in the current state? In this session, we will start to address some of these concepts.
