Company Continues Expanding its Intellectual
Property Footprint, Now has 14 US and 4 International Patents
HeartBeam, Inc. (NASDAQ: BEAT), a medical technology company
focused on transforming cardiac care through the power of
personalized insights, announced today that it has received two new
patents on its core vectorelectrocardiography (VECG) technology
from the United States Patent and Trademark Office. HeartBeam now
has 14 issued and allowed US patents and 4 international patents
for its VECG technology which collects 3D signals of the heart and
converts them into a 12-lead ECG.
“HeartBeam’s core VECG technology is designed to be used with
portable, patient-friendly devices such as a credit-card sized
system, an extended wear patch, or watch to enable physicians to
monitor patients and identify cardiac health trends outside of a
medical facility,” said Branislav Vajdic, PhD, CEO and Founder of
HeartBeam. “These new patents reinforce our strategic vision which
is founded on developing and protecting our novel VECG technology
and product pipeline as we work to transform how cardiac care is
delivered in the future.”
The first patent, “Mobile three-lead cardiac monitoring device
and method for automated diagnostics” covers apparatuses and
methods that facilitate the comparison of cardiac signals over time
for the automated or assisted detection of heart attacks, or Acute
Myocardial Infarction (AMI). For each patient, HeartBeam provides a
comparative baseline ECG which aids physicians in gaining richer
insights about the patient’s cardiac health. This approach was
validated in a landmark JACC: Advances publication which
demonstrated that HeartBeam’s VECG approach with a comparative
baseline had significantly higher diagnostic accuracy (95% Area
Under the Curve or AUC) than a 12-lead ECG alone (68% AUC).
The second patent, “Apparatus for generating an
electrocardiogram” covers methods and apparatuses around
HeartBeam’s wrist-based ECG system. This is the second patent
related to HeartBeam’s watch concept, which combines a continuous
ECG monitor with the ability to take a high sensitivity 12-lead ECG
– all in a single device designed to be worn on the wrist.
In addition to the 14 issued and allowed US patents and 4
international patents, HeartBeam has 20 pending applications
worldwide. These patents cover the core inventions in HeartBeam’s
VECG technology, as well as the specific applications across
HeartBeam’s product portfolio, including patient carried devices
(HeartBeam AIMIGo™), continuous monitors (LIVMOR), extended wear
patches, and watch-based 12-lead ECGs.
