Doubts Over AI's Ability to Identify Shockable Arrhythmias
VPrasadMDMPH · x · 2026-07-13
The author's first point is that the model must identify "shockable" fatal arrhythmias, but the paper uses sudden death labels from death certificates. This includes many VT scenarios that cannot be saved by a defibrillator, such as VT and death caused by myocardial infarction. The thread argues that while the study links the algorithm to VT, it fails to address the critical question of whether these VTs are genuinely new-onset and appropriate for ICD intervention.
