Summary

This study tests whether artificial intelligence (AI) can spot a serious heart valve condition called aortic stenosis using portable, non-invasive devices. Researchers will enroll 410 adults aged 70 and older during routine primary care visits. The goal is to see if AI-powered analysis of simple heart tests can catch moderate or severe cases earlier, potentially improving treatment timing.
