The electrocardiogram (ECG) is a widely-used medical test, typically consisting of 12 voltage versus time traces collected from surface recordings over the heart.

We show that a large dataset of 723, 754 clinically-acquired echocardiographic videos (~45 million images) linked to longitudinal follow-up data in 27, 028 patients can be used to train a deep neural network to predict 1-year mortality with good accuracy (area under the curve (AUC) in an independent test set = 0. 839).
