Official title

IMPlementazione di algoRitmi di Assistenza Alla diagnOsi in un Software di Refertazione Computerizzato Che Valuta Anche l'Accuratezza Dell'Esame ECOcardiografico

Overview

This observational study aims to improve the accuracy of the report of the echocardiographic study, making it more consistent with the current international guidelines and reducing the diagnostic mistakes in patients undergoing clinically -indicated echocardiography. The main questions it aims to answer are: * can the addition of automated diagnostic algorithms help to improve the overall accuracy of the echocardiographic report?

Interventions

  • Device COMPACS
    We will modify the current version of the COMPACS software package to implement several guideline-derived algorithms to help the clinician to reduce diagnostic errors and increase the adherence to current guidelines

Primary outcome measures

  • Inconsistencies between quantitative and qualitative parameters in the report [Time frame: During analysis of echocardiographic data]
Secondary outcome measures (1)
  • Inconsistencies between the clinical diagnosis and clinical guidelines [Time frame: During analysis of echocardiographic data]

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion criteria

  • Having undergone a clinically-indicated echocardiographic study

Exclusion criteria

  • Denial of the consensus to use individual clinical data for research purposes

Criteria are shown verbatim from the registry (in English). Final eligibility is always assessed by the study center.
