About this trial

Heart Failure and valvular heart disease are disproportionate problems in rural and remote Australia (RRA). Echocardiography is the best imaging investigation, and essential for management, but access to this essential test shows huge geographic variations, primarily because of dependence on expert acquisition. This trial seeks to demonstrate the effectiveness of artificial intelligence-based echocardiography for triage and management of patients with known or suspected heart disease in RRA.
