RhythmAnalytics® will support ImagineMIC’s clinicians by alerting them to more than 20 types of cardiac arrhythmias, along with beat-by-beat morphology computation that includes ventricular arrhythmias, ventricular ectopic beats and all non-paced arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation (AFib). Biofourmis’ RhythmAnalytics® were trained using over 4 million electrocardiogram (ECG) recordings collected from patients using various FDA-cleared ECG monitoring wearables.

“Improving cardiac outcomes and reducing care costs for the ‘silver tsunami’ of seniors in the healthcare system will require a new paradigm of chronic care management that includes 24-hour chronic care management supported with proven, revolutionary technology,” said Anthony J. Bacchi, MD, CEO and founder of ImagineMIC™. “This collaboration is extremely synergistic, since Biofourmis’ RhythmAnalytics® and Biovitals® Platform also have been demonstrated to deliver extraordinary results that reduce costs and improve patient outcomes.”


RhythmAnalytics® offers an advantage in that traditional approaches to cardiac rhythm classification are prone to large false positives, leading to misdiagnosis, which can significantly increase healthcare utilization costs. Studies also have demonstrated that the computerized arrhythmia interpretation error rates may approach 50%. RhythmAnalytics® supports analysis of ECGs captured from any FDA-cleared devices or wearable sensors such as Holter monitors, event recorders, or other similar devices. The technology can be integrated as a cloud-based API into existing cardiac monitoring solutions, or directly integrated into a medical device or wearable sensor—significantly improving the accuracy and scalability of ECG analysis and reducing rates of misinterpretation and inappropriate patient management.

Scalable Partnership

In the future, the ImagineMIC™ and Biofourmis partnership will expand beyond monitoring for cardiac arrhythmias, as ImagineMIC™ expands its remote patient monitoring scope beyond SNFs and into patients’ homes. As such, additional modules from the Biovitals® Platform will be integrated into the ImagineMIC™ platform in the coming months for conditions such as heart failure, COPD and asthma to help clinicians predict adverse events, design effective interventions, collaborate with patients’ full care teams, and educate patients through their mobile devices.

“Although the Biovitals® Platform serves as a leading end-to-end digital therapeutics platform on its own, we are excited to partner with an innovative organization such as ImagineMIC™, so we can leverage our combined technologies to lower costs and improve outcomes for patients,” Rajput said. “There is a tremendous need in the market for our combined solutions to help reduce the burden on clinicians in managing the multiple chronic conditions of people living in SNFs and other care settings. We look forward to working with ImagineMIC™ to support high-quality care delivered through around-the-clock monitoring and advanced AI-driven predictive analytics for clinical decision support that will result in earlier interventions that lead to better outcomes.”
