ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence-enhanced electrocardiogram (AI-ECG) analysis shows promise to detect biventricular pathophysiology. However, AI-ECG analysis remains underexplored in congenital heart disease (CHD).
OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to develop and externally validate an AI-ECG model to predict cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR)-defined biventricular dysfunction/dilation in patients with CHD.
METHODS: We trained (80%) and tested (20%) a convolutional neural network on paired ECG-CMRs (≤30 days apart) from patients with and without CHD to detect left ventricular (LV) dysfunction (ejection fraction ≤40%), RV dysfunction (ejection fraction ≤35%), and LV and RV dilation (end-diastolic volume z-score ≥4). Performance was assessed during internal testing and external validation on an outside health care system using area under receiver-operating curve (AUROC) and area under precision recall curve.
RESULTS: The internal and external cohorts comprised 8,584 ECG-CMR pairs (n = 4,941; median CMR age 20.7 years) and 909 ECG-CMR pairs (n = 746; median CMR age 25.4 years), respectively. Model performance was similar for internal testing (AUROC: LV dysfunction 0.87; LV dilation 0.86; RV dysfunction 0.88; RV dilation 0.81) and external validation (AUROC: LV dysfunction 0.89; LV dilation 0.83; RV dysfunction 0.82; RV dilation 0.80). Model performance was lowest in functionally single ventricle patients. Tetralogy of Fallot patients predicted to be at high risk of ventricular dysfunction had lower survival (P < 0.001). Model explainability via saliency mapping revealed that lateral precordial leads influence all outcome predictions, with high-risk features including QRS widening and T-wave inversions for RV dysfunction/dilation.
CONCLUSIONS: AI-ECG shows promise to predict biventricular dysfunction/dilation, which may help inform CMR timing in CHD.
