This prospective, multicenter study evaluated the accuracy of AI-assisted point-of-care ultrasound (FoCUS) in assessing left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). 424 participants underwent FoCUS by novice and experienced users, with LVEF compared to transthoracic echocardiography (TTE). Excellent overall intraclass correlation (0.904) was observed, with high agreement between FoCUS and TTE in categorizing LVEF severity. The AI-assisted FoCUS showed high accuracy in detecting abnormal and severely reduced LVEF, demonstrating its potential for use in diverse clinical settings.
