Core Tip
Core Tip: Machine learning could aid in improving healthcare in heart failure (HF) patients. HF is a rapidly progressing chronic disease; therefore, improving care by enhancing diagnostic and prognostic modalities is essential. Machine learning of thoracic cavity sounds in HF patients will help define the characteristics of HF patients.
