P621Electrocardiograms in low-risk patients undergoing an annual health examination
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background/Introduction: Clinical guidelines advise against routine electrocardiograms (ECG) in low-risk, asymptomatic patients, but the frequency and impact of such ECGs are unknown. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess the frequency of ECGs following an annual health examination (AHE) with a primary care provider amongst patients with no known cardiac conditions or risk factors, to explore factors predictive of receiving an ECG in this clinical scenario, and to compare downstream cardiac testing and clinical outcomes in low-risk patients who did and did not receive an ECG after their AHE. Methods: Design: We conducted a population-based retrospective cohort study using administrative healthcare databases from Ontario between 2010/11 and 2015/16 to identify low-risk primary care patients and to assess the subsequent outcomes of interest in this time frame. Participants: All patients over the age of 18 who have no prior cardiac history or risk factors who received an AHE. Exposure: Receipt of an ECG within 30 days of an AHE.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
