Abstract

We were interested to read the paper by Attia et al. 1 which demon-strated the value of electrocardiogram enabled stethoscopes (ECG-Scope). Their findings show potential in the utilization of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms in conjunction with a single lead ECG-Scope to identify left ventricular dysfunction (LVSD). A clinical pathway such as this may speed up diagnosis and potentially improve patient outcomes.
