Generalizability of results to non-US healthcare settings

Ascertain how well the performance and assistive impacts reported for AMIE and general cardiologists in this single-center, US-based, English-only dataset extrapolate to healthcare systems and patient populations in non-US settings.

Background

The paper uses retrospective, de-identified data from a single US center with English-language clinical text, which may introduce geographical and linguistic biases. The authors explicitly state uncertainty regarding applicability beyond the US context.

Evaluating generalizability is essential to understand whether AMIE-assisted workflows and observed benefits hold in diverse international healthcare environments with different patient populations, resource constraints, and clinical practices.
