About this trial
The purpose of this research is to detect episodes of rejection versus non-rejection after cardiac transplant and the diagnostic accuracy of an Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithm using the data from an ECG (electrocardiogram) and Cardiac Ultrasound (Echocardiogram and/or point of care ultrasound).
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Patients undergoing post-cardiac transplant endomyocardial biopsy, and the ability to provide informed consent and a consent for the study.
Disqualifiers
Refusal of study participation
Trial population
Post-cardiac transplantation subjects, presenting to the cardiac catheterization laboratories at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN for routine surveillance biopsies or for diagnostic biopsies in the setting of clinical concern including rejection and graft dysfunction will be enrolled.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Number of episodes identified by the Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithm as 1R or greater acute cellular rejection, grade 1 or greater antibody mediated rejection, reduction in LVEF to <50%, or a drop in LVEF >5%
Number of episodes identified by the AI algorithm as 1R or greater acute cellular rejection, grade 1 or greater antibody mediated rejection, reduction in LVEF to \<50%, or a drop in LVEF \>5% utilizing electrocardiograms and cardiac ultrasound images/videos obtained from point of care ultrasound (POCUS) or echocardiograms.
