About this study

Official title: Pilot Evaluation for SMartphone-adaptable Artificial Intelligence for PRediction and DeTection of Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction

The goal of this pilot study is to evaluate the prospective performance of an image-based, smartphone-adaptable artificial intelligence electrocardiogram (AI-ECG) strategy to predict and detect left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) in a real-world setting.

Read the detailed description

The SMART-LV pilot study will be a prospective cohort study in outpatient clinics at the Yale New Haven Hospital. Participants who have undergone a 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECGs) with either a high (≥80%) or low (<10%) probability of LVSD on AI-ECG algorithm, but without an echocardiogram done in the clinical setting for at least 90 days after the ECG, will be identified by electronic health record (EHR) and invited for a limited echocardiogram/cardiac ultrasonogram for assessing LV ejection fraction. The goal of the study is to evaluate the feasibility of recruiting patients and performing the study after pursuing a screening on 12-lead ECGs. The procedure currently used for detection of LVSD, echocardiograms, are inaccessible and expensive. Therefore, while AI-ECG-based algorithms using a smartphone- or web-based application can broaden access to screening, a thorough evaluation for this indication is needed before clinical adoption. The investigators intend to use the results as pilot data for sample size and drop-off rate estimation for a subsequent larger prospective cohort study aimed at validating the performance characteristics of the model in a screening setting.

The validation of this accessible ECG-based screening strategy, that can be directly used by clinicians using a smartphone or web-based application, can transform the early identification of LVSD before the development of symptoms, thereby allowing broader utilization of evidence-based therapies to prevent symptomatic heart failure and premature death.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Successful detection of asymptomatic LVSD by AI-ECG

    Device feasibility of AI-ECG will be evaluated by comparing the proportion of patients with LVSD on echocardiography among those with a high predicted probability of LVSD on an AI-ECG screen compared with the proportion of patients with LVSD on echocardiography in those with a negative AI-ECG screen. Higher proportions indicate successful detection of asymptomatic LVSD compared with routine clinical care.

    Measured: During study visit approximately 50 minutes

Model description
In the ECG repository of Yale New Haven Hospital, all patients undergoing a 12-lead screen in an outpatient setting, from whom 20 individuals, 10 each with high and low predicted probability of LVSD, will be invited for a limited echocardiogram to definitively evaluate for LVSD. The investigators will assess whether the AI-ECG model continues to have the reported discrimination and sensitivity of \>90% for LVSD diagnosis in a screening setting in outpatient routine clinical care.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing AI-ECG in people with Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction, run by Yale University at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Successful detection of asymptomatic LVSD by AI-ECG (time frame: During study visit approximately 50 minutes). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 May 2024.
