From the article:
Researchers at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai developed an electrocardiogram-reading algorithm that can detect subtle signs of heart failure. 
 
A special artificial intelligence (AI)-based computer algorithm created by Mount Sinai researchers was able to learn how to identify subtle changes in electrocardiograms (also known as ECGs or EKGs) to predict whether a patient was experiencing heart failure.
