Valvular & structural heart disease

A Multimodal Video-Based Artificial Intelligence (AI) Biomarker for Aortic Stenosis Development and Progression

JAMA CardiolPublished Cohort study

Authors' conclusion

In this cohort study of patients without severe AS undergoing echocardiography or CMR imaging, a new AI-based video biomarker was independently associated with AS development and progression

Study context

Population
Patients without severe aortic stenosis (AS) undergoing echocardiography (Yale New Haven Health System (YNHHS) 2015–2021; Cedars-Sinai Medical Center (CSMC) 2018–2019) or cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) (UK Biobank)echocardiographic study
Participants
12,599 patients
Exposure
Higher vs lower baseline DASSi
Outcome
Annualized change in peak aortic valve velocity (AV-Vmax) and late (>6 months) aortic valve replacement (AVR)
Methodological detailsmulticohort (YNHHS, CSMC, UK Biobank)
