Abstract

Cardiovascular diseases exert a wide-reaching epidemiological impact as the number one cause of death worldwide. Emerging technologies such as big data and artificial intelligence (AI) are poised to significantly change the field of cardiology. However, their applications are still emerging. We aimed to define the role of big data and AI in cardiovascular disease with a focus on research. There are zettabyte levels (1021 bytes) of big data in the US that can be directed towards healthcare research. There are applications of big data analytics already being put to use with genomics, heart failure readmissions, echocardiography, and many other areas within cardiology. We profile in this paper an extensive listing of various datasets used throughout the globe to study big data. Within cardiology, there is tremendous potential for the application of big data analytics in personalized patient care; however, they still require validation.
