Automated detection of low ejection fraction from a one-lead electrocardiogram: application of an AI algorithm to an electrocardiogram-enabled Digital Stethoscope .

An AI algorithm applied to an ECG-enabled stethoscope recording in standard auscultation positions reliably detected the presence of a low EF in this prospective study of patients referred for echocardiography. The ability to screen patients with a possible low EF during routine physical examination may facilitate rapid detection of LVSD.
