Development and application of a heart failure-specific information platform / 中华医学科研管理杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:In this study, the application value of a specific information platform in heart failure was explored.Methods:We constructed five modules of information platform based on clinical needs, including user interface, patient management interface, follow-up platform, data processing interface and system management. By making good use of the platform, a database of heart failure was established and quality-controlled to realize the management of chronic heart failure, and prepare database for possible clinical research.Results:More than 3 000 patients with heart failure had been registered in the heart failure special disease platform. Long-term out-of-hospital management of cerfain patients with heart failure was conducted through intelligent information means. High-quality heart failure data were obtained and translated into clinical results.Conclusions:Long-term out-of-hospital management of patients with chronic heart failure can be realized through the special disease information platform, and high-quality evidence-based medical data can be obtained. Besides, the platform provides theoretical basis and data support for evaluation system of prognosis of heart failure, provides theoretical basis and data support for improving medication and surgical treatment plans and comprehensive management system of patients with heart failure.
