Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this research is to prospectively test and validate the utility of Eko artificial intelligence (AI) plus Eko Murmur Analysis Software (EMAS) murmur characterization in algorithm in a real world, point-of-care setting.


Clinical Trial Description

Eko has developed a platform to aid in screening for cardiac conditions using a digital stethoscope and machine-learning algorithms to detect the presence or absence of heart conditions such as heart murmurs and atrial fibrillation. In November 2019, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted Eko a 510(k) clearance for the marketing of "Eko AI", a set of machine learning algorithms that includes atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart murmur detection. The detection of heart murmurs may aid in detecting occult and dangerous valvular heart disease (VHD). Other Eko AI outputs include bradycardia, tachycardia, noisy signal, QRS duration, and unclassified data. Eko AI has accuracy comparable to physician judgment (atrial fibrillation sensitivity of 98.9% and specificity of 96.9%, murmur sensitivity of 87.6% and specificity of 87.8%). Both AF and VHD can cause significant morbidity and mortality when missed or diagnosed late. Eko has further developed the murmur detection function of Eko AI to now not only identify whether a murmur is present, but also to inform the clinician of its timing during the cardiac cycle (systole vs diastole), and whether it is innocent or structural. We are calling this product the Eko Murmur Analysis Software (EMAS) and submitted a premarket notification to FDA in December 2021. This study sets out to understand the utility of the Eko AI plus EMAS murmur characterization algorithm in real world use. Collecting data in a point-of-care setting will demonstrate how accurately the algorithm characterizes murmurs in comparison to an AI-unassisted clinical examination. Algorithm output and clinical determination will be confirmed by echocardiographic ground truth, with the results being blinded until the end of the patient visit. ;
