Bukrah Foundation × Biotricity

Hearts Without Borders

A donor-funded cardiac screening program bringing remote monitoring to people the health system has left behind—in the United States, conflict zones, and low- and middle-income countries.

The partnership

Cardiac expertise, delivered anywhere.

Bukrah brings trusted medical access and on-the-ground continuity. Biotricity contributes clinical-grade devices, continuous ECG data, analytics, and qualified clinical interpretation. Together, the partnership can place a cardiologist’s judgment where a cardiologist cannot physically be.

The clinical problem

Too often, the stroke becomes the diagnosis.

Atrial fibrillation can be silent, but it is highly treatable when found. Longer monitoring also identifies other actionable rhythm problems—including pauses, heart block, and ventricular arrhythmias—that short tests may miss.

The treatment is accessible. The test is simple. The failure is access.

20%of patients who experience an AF-related stroke discover their atrial fibrillation only when the stroke occurs.
The program

One device. Patient after patient.

100% donor-funded and free to the patient.

1

Biotricity supplies

Devices, cloud analytics, and clinical over-read.

2

Bukrah deploys

Equipment reaches clinics, field sites, and medical delegations.

3

Patient is fitted

Trained local staff apply the device; no cardiologist is needed on site.

4

The heart is read

Recordings are analyzed and interpreted remotely.

5

The cycle repeats

The device is cleaned, reset, re-kitted, and used again.

Deployment

Three channels. One protocol.

United States

32.4M

patients already reached through health centers and free clinics, including millions living with hypertension or diabetes.

Conflict zones

38M

people within Bukrah’s operating footprint, where cardiac services may be severely limited or unavailable.

LMIC partners

~550M

people across proposed launch countries where the burden is high and specialist access is scarce.

Population and eligibility figures are program-planning estimates from the slide deck, not forecasts of patients reached.

Modeled impact

What 100,000 screenings could do

10,200new atrial fibrillation diagnoses
8,400other actionable arrhythmias found
~3,900patients beginning appropriate preventive treatment
430–500strokes potentially averted over five years
$20M–$23Min modeled first-year stroke costs avoided
Nearly 1 in 5screened patients receiving an actionable finding

These figures are illustrative projections based on a modeled clinical mix and published evidence. Actual outcomes will be measured and reported; they are not results already achieved by the program.

Accountability

The measures that matter

Lives protected

Modeled and, as data matures, published estimates of strokes and sudden deaths prevented.

Care where there was none

Cardiologist-hours delivered to regions without specialist access.

Better lives lived

Years of disability-free life preserved and avoidable hospital visits prevented.

Diagnosis before catastrophe

Actionable findings identified before stroke, collapse, or another emergency.

Evidence

Sources & methodology

Clinical detection and treatment evidence

The program model draws on peer-reviewed studies of extended cardiac monitoring, atrial fibrillation detection, post-stroke monitoring, dialysis populations, and anticoagulation outcomes listed in the original program deck.

Population, access, and cost evidence

Population and access figures draw on sources including HRSA health-center data, WHO resources, humanitarian health reports, and published stroke-cost research cited in the original program deck.
