Welcome to the Nightingale Project!

AIding your heart

"A healthy heart is the key to a healthy life." – Unknown

Cardiovascular Disease

The heart pumps approximately 2,000 gallons of blood daily, accounting for over 20% of the body´s total blood volume, and plays a critical role in maintaining blood pressure, circulation, and overall cardiovascular health. Sadly, cardiovascular disease is also the leading cause of death in the world, and the W.H.O estimates that 18 million people lose their lives every year due to heart conditions, making it the number 1 cause of death worldwide.

This research explores the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to analyze vast amounts of health data quickly and accurately. This website aims to inform and raise awareness about your health. Through short questionnaires, you can assess your risk of heart disease while also identifying potential symptoms and risk factors.

About Us

Nightingale is a data-mining group from Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz, Germany. We are dedicated to advancing cardiovascular health through cutting-edge AI predictive models. Our mission is to leverage sophisticated data mining techniques to analyze complex health datasets and provide precise risk assessments for cardiovascular diseases.

Our group consists of students from diverse backgrounds and fields of study, allowing us to explore heart disease from multiple perspectives. We have also developed demos to demonstrate how AI and explainable AI can be applied to cardiovascular research.

You are welcome to explore our site and try out the demos yourself.

About Us
Florence Nightingale

Florence Nightingale

Florence Nightingale, known as the founder of modern nursing, revolutionized healthcare practices in the 19th century.

While she is not directly associated with heart disease prediction using AI, her pioneering work in healthcare laid the foundation for advancements in medical technology and data analysis.

HealthView

At HealthView, we use advanced imaging and AI to help detect and understand heart disease early. Our interactive demos—featuring tools like Cardiomegaly CNN and Echo Explore—show how new technology can make it easier to read and analyze heart images. These tools highlight how machine learning and medical imaging work together to improve diagnosis and support healthcare decisions. Explore the demos to see how innovation is changing the way we understand heart health.

HealthMap

At Healthmap, we provide comprehensive data and visually engaging maps to shed light on the prevalence of heart disease and its risk factors worldwide. Our mission is to empower individuals, healthcare professionals, and policymakers with the information they need to make informed decisions and take proactive steps towards improving heart health. Explore our interactive maps to visualize heart disease trends and risk factors in different parts of the world. These maps provide a clear, at-a-glance understanding of how heart disease impacts various populations.
