Pediheart Podcast #168: Use Of A Novel AI Model To Accurately Identify LQTS On The ECG

Summary: This week, in a co-branded episode with SADS.ORG, we speak with Professor Michael Ackerman of The Mayo Clinic about a recent work he published with his team on a novel AI model to assess the ECG for the diagnosis of LQTS. How accurately can this technology identify a patient with LQTS? Can it identify the genetic diagnosis from the ECG alone? What are the implications of this sort of technology in regards to screening patients for LQTS? These are amongst the many topics reviewed with Dr. Ackerman this week on the podcast. doi: 10.1001/jamacardio.2020.7422
