PMcardio

PMcardio turns a phone photo of a 12-lead ECG into an AI interpretation in seconds, flagging 50+ findings including hidden heart attacks, reduced LVEF and conduction blocks. Built for clinicians at the point of care, it pairs FDA authorized detection with explainability heatmaps and confidence scores.

PMcardio is a mobile ECG reader built by Powerful Medical for clinicians who need a fast second read at the point of care. A user photographs a paper or on-screen 12-lead ECG, or uploads an existing image, and the app returns an AI interpretation within seconds. The vendor reports more than 100,000 healthcare professionals, 2.5 million analyzed ECGs and 150 hospital deployments to date. Detection spans over 50 findings across rhythms, arrhythmias, conduction blocks, hypertrophies, ectopies, intervals and axis measurements. Three named modules carry the clinical weight: Queen of Hearts targets STEMI and occlusive myocardial infarction, including cases without ST elevation, while filtering common STEMI mimics; LVsense screens for reduced left ventricular ejection fraction directly from the tracing; and Core AI covers 36 core diagnoses plus 12 measurements such as heart rate, PR, QRS and QT/QTc. A culprit artery view scores LAD, LCx and RCA likelihood with a 3D heart visualization, and confidence scores flag borderline cases. In practice the workflow is deliberately short. Capture an ECG, read the structured report, then open ECGxplain heatmaps that highlight which leads and waveform segments drove the prediction. That explainability layer matters for trainees and for any clinician who wants to audit the output rather than accept it. The product is aimed at emergency departments, ambulance crews, clinics and hospital wards, and Powerful Medical markets it to both individual clinicians and organizations. Among ECG interpretation tools, PMcardio differentiates itself on occlusion detection and regulatory standing rather than on breadth alone. It carries FDA De Novo authorization, EU MDR CE marking, UK MHRA registration and ISO 27001 among other certifications, and the company cites 25 or more independent validation studies with up to double the sensitivity of standard care for heart attacks. The app is free to download on iOS and Android, though organization level pricing is not published on the homepage.
