Issue Date: | 23-Aug-2018 | Date: | 2018-08-23 | Publication information: | American Heart Journal 2018; 205: 149-153 | Abstract: | Despite the appeal of smartphone-based electrocardiograms (ECGs) for arrhythmia screening, a paucity of data exists on the accuracy of primary care physicians' and cardiologists' interpretation of tracings compared with the device's automated diagnosis. Using 408 ECGs in 51 patients, we demonstrate a variable accuracy in clinician interpretation of smartphone-based ECGs, with only cardiologists demonstrating satisfactory agreement when referenced against a 12-lead ECG. Combining the device automated diagnostic algorithm with cardiologist interpretation of only uninterpretable traces yielded excellent results and provides an efficient, cost-effective workflow for the utilization of a smartphone-based ECG in clinical practice. | URI: | https://ahro.austin.org.au/austinjspui/handle/1/19602 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.ahj.2018.08.001 | ORCID: | Journal: | American Heart Journal | PubMed URL: | 30195576 | Type: | Journal Article |
