Fast ECG analysis shows medical AI moving toward front-line triage

Medical AI becomes more convincing when it shortens a real bottleneck. An ECG-focused tool reported by The Guardian points to a future where routine heart-test data can help identify high-risk patients quickly enough to change who gets treated first.

Why it matters: The responsible path is careful validation. Hospitals will need evidence across populations, clear escalation rules, and workflows that help clinicians act on the result rather than simply adding another alert to ignore.
