+=== Abstract:
+
+!CardioCube is an artificial intelligence-powered, voice-enabled digital
+assistant for patients.
+
+One of the biggest challenge in clinical medicine are unplanned hospital
+readmissions. This applies especially to cardiovascular disease patients.
+Around 25% of them get back to hospital within one month of discharge.
+Recurrent complications and unplanned hospitalizations are devastating for
+patient’s health and produce overwhelming healthcare costs.
+Voice-first devices (i.e. Amazon Echo or Google Home) could help to obtain
+clinical data about disease-specific symptoms (chest pain, shortness of breath,
+vertigo, headache etc.). This information can be further combined with a
+hospital database, analyzed using AI techniques and presented to a healthcare
+provider. Better understanding of patient status at home may help to optimize
+treatment strategy avoiding medical complications.
