Description
Summary:Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain a leading cause of global mortality and morbidity. Traditional risk prediction models, while foundational, often fail to capture the multifaceted nature of risk factors or leverage the expanding pool of healthcare data. Machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) approaches represent a paradigm shift in risk prediction, offering dynamic, scalable solutions that integrate diverse data types. This review examines advancements in AI/ML for CVD risk prediction, analyzing their strengths, limitations, and the challenges associated with their clinical integration. Recommendations for standardization, validation, and future research directions are provided to unlock the potential of these technologies in transforming precision cardiovascular medicine.
