MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., June 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- AliveCor, the leading innovator in FDA-cleared personal electrocardiogram (ECG) technology, today announced its participation in The Human Component, a new online branded series developed for the Consumer Technology Association (CTA) and produced by BBC StoryWorks Commercial Productions, the commercial content division of BBC Studios.

The series showcases innovative technologies that are supporting healthier communities, stronger societies and a more resilient planet. Through compelling, human-led films, The Human Component celebrates global efforts to maximize the full potential of technology.

"We are incredibly proud to take part in The Human Component alongside innovators who are just as committed to introducing game-changing ideas to improve lives as we are," said Priya Abani, CEO of AliveCor. "The series beautifully depicts the real-life impacts of technologies like our AI-backed ECG solutions and services, and how they are helping transform society for the better."

AliveCor's film shares the story of Dr. Cleveland Francis, a cardiologist and musician who was diagnosed with a heart condition after collapsing at home. After his episode, Dr. Francis used one of AliveCor's FDA-cleared Kardia™ devices to take a real-time, clinical-grade ECG that he shared with his doctor, leading to a definitive diagnosis. Capable of remotely identifying six of the most common arrhythmias in just 30 seconds, Kardia personal ECGs place the power of advanced AI technology directly into users' hands. They also offer healthcare providers a way to capture patients' elusive arrhythmias, contributing to earlier diagnoses and improving clinical decision-making.

This is the second series that BBC StoryWorks has created for CTA, a trade association that brings together companies that improve lives through technology. By highlighting how innovators across industries are advancing groundbreaking new technologies, The Human Component explores how we can solve some of the most pressing challenges facing the world today.
