Abstract
Scientific research is invaluable for improving diagnostic and therapeutic management of our patients, and to this end the use of individual patient records is crucial. Using electronic health records, cardiovascular investigators have been able to develop important prognostic and other clinical scoring systems, such as those for individuals at risk of coronary artery disease (i.e., Framingham score, the EUROScore) or those for patients with atrial fibrillation (i.e., CHA2DS2-VASc, HAS-BLED). In addition, electronic health records help to improve the design of newer pharmacological studies as they allow timely recognition of serious adverse events of marketed drugs [1].
