Cardiovascular disease has become a major public health issue as the leading cause of death. Timely and accurate detection of heart disease is critical to prevent additional harm to patients. Recent studies show that the implementation of datadriven approaches in medicine, including machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL), significantly improves the speed and accuracy of heart disease diagnosis. This study proposes a hybrid deep learning model that integrates traditional convolutional neural networks (CNNs) with quantum computing to improve the accuracy of the prediction of cardiovascular diseases. The model uses a parameterized quantum circuit (PQC) to encode patient data, including ECG signals and cardiac images, into quantum states to extract quantum features. Quantum gates modify quantum states to extract complex and high-dimensional features that may be beyond the capabilities of conventional algorithms. A CNN uses convolutional filters to detect localized patterns, including arrhythmias and structural heart abnormalities, to diagnose cardiovascular disease. The CNN then receives the output from the PQC. Integrating quantum feature extraction with conventional deep learning improves prediction accuracy and robustness, facilitating the analysis of high-dimensional and spatially dependent data. The ability of the hybrid model to identify cardiovascular diseases in their early stages may enable faster and more accurate diagnostic results, making it an innovative tool for personalized medicine.

The primary issue of global health today is Cardio-vascular diseases (CVDs) and thus requires accurate predictive models for detecting it early. Quantum technology combined with regular deep learning techniques are used by researchers here to improve the accuracy of forecast on heart diseases. While using an expanded dataset with clinical and demographic records, an innovative approach was found to use Quantum Convolutional Neural Network (QCVNET) structure that merged quantum layers into classical CNN framework with Principal Component Analysis (PCA) that allowed for consistency of features with respect to the quantum bits' number. The performance of the QCVNET was evaluated by comparing it to Quantum LSTM, Quantum DNN, Quantum GRU, and Quantum RNN, which are other quantum models enhanced with conventional neural networks, and other traditional non-quantum models like SVM, RF, RNN and DNN, using different indicators of quality like f1-score or recall. In early CVD prediction, the QCVNET model produced an impressive accuracy of 91.73%, beating all other models, showcasing the potential impact of quantum-enhanced deep learning for timely diagnosis and personalized treatment strategies while providing means to reduce the global burden of cardiovascular diseases.
Cardiovascular disease is one of the most common reasons of increases the global death rate, suggesting initial detection and timely treatment crucial. While traditional machine learning models have been effective in predicting heart disease, Quantum Computing (QC) introduces new possibilities for improving accuracy and processing speed. In this regard the application of Quantum Machine Learning (QML) approaches-categorically, Quantum Neural Networks (QNN) and Quantum Support Vector Classification (QSVC)-to predict heart disease using key health indicators such as present-age, levels of cholesterol, Blood Pressure (BP), and lifestyle choices. QNN is utilized to recognize complex patterns in patient data, leveraging deep learning to understand intricate connections between various risk factors. Meanwhile, QSVC takes advantage of QC ability to compute large amounts of information at once, making classification faster and more precise. Both models are trained and tested on a heart disease dataset and compared with traditional machine learning methods to assess their accuracy, efficiency, and scalability. The results show that while quantum and classical models achieve similar accuracy, quantum computing significantly reduces processing time, making it highly efficient for analyzing large datasets. This study highlights the strength of QC in transforming medical diagnostics, offering faster and more reliable predictive models for early heart disease detection.
