Jaslok Hospital adopts Maharashtra’s first AI-powered heart disease prevention model in partnership with AnginaX AI

Jaslok Hospital & Research Centre has introduced Maharashtra’s first operational AI-powered heart disease prevention model through a partnership with AnginaX AI. The initiative aims to transition cardiac care from a reactive to a preventive approach by identifying cardiovascular risk before symptoms appear.

AnginaX AI, promoted as India’s first licensed AI doctor assistant for cardiology, is now fully functional within Jaslok Hospital’s outpatient departments. The system provides doctors with structured, data-backed clinical reports that assess heart disease risk in under a minute. It analyses over 20 clinical and lifestyle factors, including lipid profiles, blood sugar levels, inflammation markers, family history, and daily habits.

“For decades, cardiology has focused on damage control,” said Padma Bhushan Awardee Dr. Ashwin B. Mehta, Director of Cardiology at Jaslok Hospital. “But with advanced AI, we can now assess who is at risk before damage begins. This is not just innovation, but reimagining the timeline of care.”

The system has been developed to support decision-making in outpatient settings where early detection is essential for reducing undiagnosed cardiovascular cases.

“The AnginaX AI system gives us clinical clarity in under a minute,” said Dr. Ajit Desai, Senior Cardiologist at Jaslok. “We’re now able to consult more patients, detect silent risks early, and guide people to act before their first symptom.”

To promote accessibility, the model is structured to overcome financial and psychological barriers to early testing.

“This isn’t just about digital transformation, but about medical timing,” said Mr. Jitendra Haryan, CEO of Jaslok Hospital. “When technology and medicine work together, lives are saved earlier.”

Jaslok Hospital has also launched a public awareness campaign titled “Dil Fit, Life Hit”, led by Dr. Mehta, with the goal of integrating structured prevention into routine cardiac care.

AnginaX AI Founder, Naman Gosalia, shared the system’s personal testing origins. “The KPI of this model was simple: could it work on my own mother? That trial was successful and it gave us the conviction to move forward.”

He added, “Launching it at Jaslok reflects a shared belief that people deserve better outcomes, and prevention should not come with fear, friction, or financial burden.”

Dr. Neeraj Desai, Strategic Medical Advisor at AnginaX AI, said, “The AnginaX AI system is a bridge between data and decision, between missed chances and timely care. In medicine, timing is everything. And for the first time, we are putting timing on the side of prevention.”
