Deep Neural Network Trained on Surface ECG Improves Diagnostic Accuracy of Prior Myocardial Infarction Over Q Wave Analysis

Clinical screening of myocardial infarction is important for preventative treatment and risk stratification in cardiology practice, however current detection by electrocardiogram Q-wave analysis provides only modest accuracy for assessing prior cardiac events. We set out to evaluate the ability of a deep neural network trained on the electrocardiogram to identify patients with clinical history of ...
