Brief Summary:
The DAISEA-ECG project aims to improve the diagnosis of heart diseases in primary care through the DeepECG platform, which combines ECG-AI and ECHONeXT algorithms. This study uses a stepped wedge design, where each Family Medicine Group acts as its own control. The FMGs will gradually transition from the control period (without AI recommendations) to the intervention period (with AI recommendations activated) in a randomized sequence.
The primary objective is to compare the sensitivity of family physicians in detecting cardiac pathologies, with and without the assistance of the DeepECG platform. Sensitivity is defined as the proportion of patients correctly referred to cardiology or for transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) among those who indeed required cardiovascular evaluation, as confirmed by an independent adjudication committee.
Detailed Description:
Mathematically, sensitivity is calculated as True Positive / (True Positive + False Negative), where True Positive represents correctly referred patients and false negatives represents patients who should have been referred but were not.
The secondary objectives include determining the rate of cardiovascular evaluation referrals before and after the intervention (implementation of the DeepECG platform), the individual characteristics of the intervention (PPV, NPV, and specificity), as well as evaluating the feasibility of implementing AI-based automatic ECG interpretation in primary care through surveys of family physicians and cardiologists.
