What this Trial Is About
Researchers are investigating the clinical usefulness of the PM-Heart algorithm PMHeartIHD, a software tool designed to predict survival prognosis for patients hospitalized with ischemic heart disease IHD after coronary arteriography. The goal is to see if using this decision support system helps improve patient outcomes and reduce the risk of rehospitalization compared to standard treatment without the algorithms input. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups one where the treating physician does not have access to the PM-Heart algorithms one-year mortality prediction, and another where the physician receives this information to assist in treatment decisions. The algorithm offers a prognosis to support the physicians evaluation but does not give specific treatment instructions. The study monitors patients up to one year after randomization. During the study, researchers will track hospital readmissions, causes of death, length and number of hospital stays, cardiac investigations, follow-up consultations, medication use, and new cardiovascular events. They will also assess how the algorithm is received and used by medical staff, its usability, and related health economic impacts. The total participation time includes follow-up for one year after randomization.
