Google and Abbott Unite on AI-Powered Cardiovascular Health Insights

A new collaboration between Abbott and Google aims to provide AI-powered insights into cardiovascular health. The partnership will use Google's advanced artificial intelligence capabilities to analyze data from Abbott's Lingo continuous glucose monitor (CGM). Users of the Lingo CGM can log into the Google Health smartphone app and see how their daily routines impact their health.

The analysis will also be combined with the Google Health Coach feature, which provides tailored recommendations for building healthier habits. The partnership will also involve new research to help researchers understand more about the relationship between daily habits and cardiovascular health.

Abbott's Lingo CGM is a wearable device that tracks glucose levels at all times, helping adults who are not actively using insulin monitor their cardiovascular health. According to Abbott's divisional vice president of Lingo business, Olivier Ropars, 'the biggest challenge in healthcare isn't treating disease, it's helping people stay healthier longer.'

The collaboration between Abbott and Google aims to provide personalized insights into cardiovascular health, which can help individuals understand the connections between their daily habits and overall well-being.
