Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • New Diagnosis of Low Ejection Fraction(defined as ejection fraction ≤50%)

    Ejection fraction obtained by echocardiography

    Within 30 days

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • All cause mortality(death)

    Within 30 days

  • Completion of an echocardiogram

    Within 30 days

Study Arms (2)

Intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients randomized to intervention will have access to the screening tool.

Other: AI-enabled ECG-based Screening Tool

Control

NO INTERVENTION

Patients randomized to control will continue routine practice.

Interventions

Primary care clinicians in the intervention group had access to the report, which displayed whether the AI-ECG result was positive or negative.The system will send a message to corresponding physicians if positive finding.
