Study Overview
Brief Summary
This study investigates the clinical efficacy of a non-invasive screening protocol using AI-ECG and CT-ECV analysis for cardiac amyloidosis. The study targets on atrial fibrillation(AF) patients with "red-flag" indicators.
Participants are randomized 1:1 into either an early screening or usual care group.
- Early screening group : AI- ECG and/or CT-ECV analysis + AF treatment
- Usual care group : AF treatment Both groups followed for 2 years to compare CA detection rates and clinical outcomes.
Detailed Description
This study is a prospective randomized trial designed to evaluate the clinical utility of non-invasive early screening for cardiac amyloidosis (CA) using AI-ECG and CT-ECV in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). The study primarily targets patients presenting with "red-flag" signs, such as heart failure symptoms, ECG findings of low voltage or pseudo-infarction, Troponin T > 0.03 ng/L, NT-proBNP > 332 pg/mL, LV wall thickness > 12 mm, a history of carpal tunnel syndrome or spinal canal stenosis, or proteinuria (e.g., UACR ≥ 300 mg/g, 24-hour proteinuria ≥ 0.5-1.0 g/day, or nephrotic-range proteinuria > 3.5 g/day).
