SUSTAIN-AI ECG

Background​

 

Cardiovascular diseases are among the leading causes of death worldwide. Early detection is critical — yet in many regions like Ethiopia, access to heart diagnostics is extremely limited. Most clinics lack trained staff, infrastructure, and diagnostic tools to detect heart conditions at an early, treatable stage.

​

At the same time, artificial intelligence offers a powerful opportunity: by automating and supporting diagnostics, AI can help close critical gaps in global healthcare access. MI4People aims to harness this potential — for the benefit of people who need it most.

​​​

Vision

 

Deployment of SUSTAIN-AI ECG: a web-based, AI-powered tool that analyzes 12-lead ECG data within seconds, detecting 10 major cardiac risk factors. The system is designed to support medical staff in underserved regions, improving diagnosis speed, accuracy, and outcomes — starting with 10 hospitals in Ethiopia.

​

Expected Impact​

 

The SUSTAIN-AI ECG system will enable earlier, more reliable detection of cardiovascular diseases in healthcare settings with limited resources. By empowering local medical teams, it will help save lives, strengthen local health infrastructures, and create a scalable model for further deployments across Africa and beyond.

​

Ultimately, SUSTAIN-AI ECG will contribute to reducing healthcare inequalities, lowering preventable deaths from heart disease, and fostering healthier communities.​​​​
