Using AI to predict coronary artery disease with non-contact information

Development and Validation of Artificial Intelligence Prediction Models Based on Multimodal, Non-contact Captured Information in Predicting Coronary Artery Disease

China National Center for Cardiovascular Diseases · NCT06092801

This study is testing whether using non-contact information like facial data and gait analysis can help predict coronary artery disease in people who are suspected of having it.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of various non-contact bio-physiological information modalities, such as facial RGB data, infrared thermography, gait analysis, and wearable device metrics, in predicting coronary artery disease (CAD). Participants suspected of CAD and referred for evaluation will provide data to develop and validate artificial intelligence models for CAD prediction. The study seeks to identify the most effective combination of these modalities to enhance predictive accuracy.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are individuals suspected of coronary artery disease who are referred for coronary angiography or coronary computed tomography angiography.

Not a fit: Patients who have undergone prior coronary interventions or have conditions affecting the non-contact data collection will not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved early detection of coronary artery disease, allowing for timely intervention and better patient outcomes.

How similar studies have performed: While the use of AI in predicting CAD is an emerging field, this specific approach utilizing multimodal non-contact information is relatively novel and has not been extensively tested in prior studies.
