Traditional tools like stethoscopes, blood pressure gauges, and electrocardiograms (ECG) are fundamental for standard diagnostic practices. This transformation extends to the use of machine learning (ML) algorithms developed by startups, which analyze medical imaging data such as ECGs, echocardiograms, and cardiac MRI scans.

The electrocardiogram (ECG) revealed T-wave inversions on precordial leads. Transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) findings were consistent with Takotsubo syndrome, accompanied by mild left ventricular dysfunction. Her blood analyses demonstrated elevation of myocardial necrosis markers (peak of troponin I of 3.4

The attending provider wrote “Agree with electrocardiogram interpretation”. An echocardiogram showed severely reduced global systolic function with an EF of 20-25% and an LV apical thrombus. An echocardiogram showed an EF of 20-25%. The computer diagnostic algorithm diagnosed “Sinus rhythm. Normal EKG”. Normal ECG.

Formal echocardiogram: Systolic function is at the lower limits of normal. Emergency department Code STEMI patients with initial electrocardiogram labeled ‘normal’ by computer interpretation: a 7-year retrospective review. This is a significant loss of myocardium and ejection fraction. Some function might possibly recover over weeks.
