The Consortium for AI & Remote Digital Interventions Against Cardiovascular disease in India is a pioneering initiative aimed at leveraging the power of Artificial Intelligence to transform cardiovascular healthcare. We are a collaboration of some of India’s and the world’s top medical, research, and technological institutions, working together to develop groundbreaking solutions to detect, manage, and prevent cardiovascular diseases.
Our vision is to revolutionize the healthcare landscape in India by utilizing AI-driven solutions for early detection, personalized treatment, and effective management of cardiovascular diseases. Through the Center of Excellence for AI in Healthcare, we aim to make healthcare affordable, accessible, and of the highest quality for millions of people across India. By harnessing the potential of AI, we strive to tackle the country’s most pressing health challenges and bring transformative healthcare to every corner of the nation.
At the heart of CARDIAC India’s mission is a commitment to advance India’s AI capabilities, focusing on its potential to solve healthcare problems. The consortium is led by the Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research (JIPMER), with Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT-Bombay) as the co-lead. Together, these institutions guide the consortium’s efforts to shape the future of healthcare with AI.
CARDIAC India boasts a wide range of partners from both the academic and industrial sectors:
Our flagship project, AI for early detection & management of Cardiovascular Diseases, utilizes novel multimodal signals and personalized medical records to improve patient outcomes. By leveraging AI, we aim to provide streamlined clinical care that is both timely and effective.
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death globally, with an estimated 17.9 million deaths each year. In India, the situation is even more critical, with risk factors such as diabetes and hypertension disproportionately affecting the population. Early detection through AI-powered diagnostics can lead to timely interventions and potentially save millions of lives. Through the CARDIAC India initiative, we hope to make this a reality by implementing solutions at the grassroots level.
At CARDIAC India, we envision a future where healthcare is driven by innovation and AI. Our mission aligns with the Government of India’s vision of “Make AI in India, Make AI Work for India”, and we are dedicated to being at the forefront of this healthcare revolution. By creating a thriving ecosystem of collaboration between academia, industry, and healthcare providers, we aim to accelerate the adoption of AI-powered solutions to address India’s cardiovascular health challenges.
