  • Step 2: Patient Diagnosis
    Step 2: Patient Diagnosis

    Tempus is pursuing development of Tempus ECG-AI based cardiology algorithms that can analyze physiological inputs using machine learning models, and detect signs associated with certain cardiovascular conditions for further referral or diagnostic follow-up.

  • Step 3: Patient Follow Up
    Step 3: Patient Follow Up

    Tempus uses AI to identify and contextualize patients in their journey, surface precision pathways at the point of care and track patients for further referral or diagnostic follow-up consistent with clinical care guidelines.

FDA Cleared, Tempus ECG-AI Devices

All Tempus ECG-AI solutions are designed to work with existing ECG platforms and EHRs to enable advanced AI deployment  and insights within clinical workflows.

Tempus ECG-AF

Intended Use

Tempus ECG-AF is intended for use to analyze recordings of 12-lead ECG devices and detect signs associated with a patient experiencing atrial fibrillation or flutter within the next 12 months.  Tempus ECG-AF is for use on resting 12-lead ECGs from patients 65 years and older without pre-existing or concurrent documentation of AF, who do not have a pacemaker or ICD, and who did not have cardiac surgery in the preceding 30 days.1

Algorithm Design

The Tempus ECG-AF model was trained on data from >1,500,000 ECGs and >450,000 patients.2

Results

For patients receiving a positive result from the Tempus ECG-AF test, AF would be observed in approximately 1-in-5 patients within the next 12 months.1

Tempus ECG-Low EF

Intended Use

The Tempus ECG-Low EF is software intended for use to analyze 12-lead ECG recordings and detect signs associated with having a low left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF ≤40%) in patients 40 years of age or older at risk of heart failure. It is not intended as a stand-alone diagnostic and positive results may suggest the need for further clinical evaluation.3

Algorithm Design

The Tempus ECG-Low EF model was trained on data from >930,000 ECGs and >170,000 patients.3

Results

For patients receiving a positive result from the Tempus ECG-Low EF test, LVEF (≤40%) would be observed in approximately 2-in-5 patients when tested by echocardiogram.3

CPT Coding for ECG-AI Devices

  • Effective January 1, 2025, CPT4 +0764T and 0765T are listed under the Hospital Outpatient Prospective Payment and Ambulatory Surgical Center Payment Systems (OPPS) as Category III codes to describe assistive algorithmic electrocardiogram assessments for cardiac dysfunction.

MOMENTOUS Study: Assessing the clinical impact of an ECG algorithm to increase the diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension

ACTIVE STUDY

Tempus is sponsoring a multi-site study of an investigational AI algorithm that analyzes the results of a 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) to find patients at increased risk of having undetected pulmonary hypertension (PH). Clinicians will evaluate the AI’s ability to detect patients at risk of undiagnosed PH, and will track clinical outcomes of patients who are identified for further evaluation.

  1. INDICATIONS FOR USE: Tempus ECG-AF is intended for use to analyze recordings of 12-lead ECG devices and detect signs associated with a patient experiencing atrial fibrillation and/or atrial flutter (collectively referred to as AF) within the next 12 months. It is for use on resting 12-lead ECG recordings collected at a healthcare facility from patients: 65 years of age or older, without pre-existing or concurrent documentation of atrial fibrillation and/or atrial flutter, who do not have a pacemaker or implantable cardioverter defibrillator, and who did not have cardiac surgery within the preceding 30 days. Performance of repeated testing of the same patient over time has not been evaluated and results SHOULD NOT be used for patient monitoring. Tempus ECG-AF only analyzes ECG data. Results should be interpreted in conjunction with other diagnostic information, including the patient’s original ECG recordings and other tests, as well as the patient’s symptoms and clinical history. Tempus ECG-AF is not for use in patients with a history of AF, unless the AF occurred after a cardiac surgery procedure and resolved within 30 days of the procedure. It is not for use to assess risk of occurrence of AF related to cardiac surgery. Results do not describe a person’s overall risk of experiencing AF or serve as the sole basis for diagnosis of AF, and should not be used as the basis for treatment of AF. Results are not intended to rule-out AF or the need for follow-up. Link to IFU: https://www.tempus.com/ifu-ecg-af/

  3. INDICATIONS FOR USE: Tempus ECG-Low EF is software intended to analyze resting, non-ambulatory 12-lead ECG recordings and detect signs associated with having a low left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF less than or equal to 40%). It is for use on clinical diagnostic ECG recordings collected at a healthcare facility from patients 40 years of age or older at risk of heart failure. This population includes but is not limited to patients with atrial fibrillation, aortic stenosis, cardiomyopathy, myocardial infarction, diabetes, hypertension, mitral regurgitation, and ischemic heart disease. Tempus ECG-Low EF only analyzes ECG data and provides a binary output for interpretation. Tempus ECG-Low EF is not intended to be a stand-alone diagnostic tool for cardiac conditions, should not be used for patient monitoring, and should not be used on ECGs with paced rhythms. Results should be interpreted in conjunction with other diagnostic information, including the patient’s original ECG recordings and other tests, as well as the patient’s symptoms and clinical history. A positive result may suggest the need for further clinical evaluation in order to establish a diagnosis of low LVEF. Patients receiving a negative result should continue to be evaluated in accordance with current medical practice standards using all available clinical information.
