What this trial studies
This observational study aims to assess how clinical decision support systems integrated into electronic health records influence adherence to treatment guidelines for patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). It focuses on the routing of CHF patients, their follow-up care, and the prescription and dose titration of medications. The study utilizes structured electronic healthcare records from a specialized medical information system to gather data on various cardiac conditions. By analyzing this data, the study seeks to improve the management and outcomes of CHF patients in the Russian Federation.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are adults aged 18 and older with a cardiac diagnosis and chronic heart failure stage 2a or higher.
Not a fit: Patients under 18 years of age will not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could enhance the quality of care for patients with chronic heart failure by improving adherence to clinical guidelines.
How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown positive outcomes with the implementation of clinical decision support systems in managing chronic conditions, indicating potential success for this approach.
Eligibility criteria
Show full inclusion / exclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Any cardiac diagnosis ICD-10 codes I00-I99 2. Age: ≥18 years 3. CHF stage 2a and higher and/or FC II and higher 4. The data export for analysis is carried out through obtaining the structured electronic healthcare records (SHCR) from the Vertically Integrated Medical Information System "Cardiovascular Diseases" (VIMIS CVD). Such export implies obtaining documents of patients with IHD, ACS, CVA, AF and CHF, occlusion and stenosis of carotid artery, infective endocarditis and cardiac device-related endocarditis, which are sent by the region to VIMIS CVD. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Age: \<18 years
