About this trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if an artificial intelligence-powered electrocardiogram (AI-ECG) can help detect moderate or severe valvular heart diseases (VHD) in adults. The main question it aims to answer is:
.Can AI-ECG screening identify patients with significant heart valve diseases who may benefit from early echocardiography? Researchers will compare the rate of moderate or severe VHD detection between the experimental group and the control group to see if AI-ECG improve the detection rate of significant VHD.
Participants will:
* Be classified as high- or low-risk for VHD using an AI-ECG system * In the experimental group, high-risk participants will receive echocardiography based on AI-ECG results * In the control group, usual clinical care will be provided without routine echocardiography for AI-ECG high-risk results.
