Summary
Machine-learning models were able to predict mortality in the hospital and in the six months after a type of heart attack, according to results presented today at ESC Digital & AI Summit 2026 . Every year, more than 2 million people worldwide develop ST‑elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), a type of heart attack caused by complete blockage of one or more coronary arteries. Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is effective for many patients after STEMI, but for some, the risk of mortality remains high after treatment.
