Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a leading cause of sudden cardiac death in younger individuals. Accurate diagnosis is crucial for management and improving patient outcomes. The application of convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), a type of AI modeling, to electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis, presents a promising and optimistic avenue for the detection of HCM. We conducted a meta-analysis to assess the effectiveness of CNN models in diagnosing HCM through ECG.
