Summary

Early detection of cardiovascular disease is a global health priority. This cluster-randomized trial assessed AI-enabled stethoscopes in UK primary care for heart condition detection. AI stethoscopes did not boost overall heart failure diagnoses over 12 months. The study design provides valuable real-world data on implementing AI healthcare innovations.
