By improving triage, an artificial intelligence program could significantly aid emergency departments that are often overwhelmed.
A machine-learning–based artificial intelligence program developed by German researchers rapidly and easily rules out a heart attack in patients presenting with chest pain in the emergency department.
ARTEMIS has already been validated in several German cohorts, and Toprak and her colleagues applied the program to two retrospective patient cohorts from the United States and Australia. Of 2560 patients who came to the emergency department with suspected heart attack, 166 were ultimately diagnosed with an acute heart attack.The ARTEMIS program also works with the troponin value.
ARTEMIS achieved exclusion rates well above those of traditional diagnostic criteria. For comparison, Toprak and her team also applied the cutoff values of the two major cardiology societies to the patient cohort. Using the ESC criteria, a heart attack was ruled out for 15.2% of patients, and with the ACC criteria, for 13.8%.
