About this trial
The purpose of this study is to highlight the usefulness of artificial intelligence and machine learning to develop computer algorithms that will achieve with great reliability, speed and accuracy the automatic extraction and processing of large volumes of raw and unstructured clinical data from electronic medical files.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Hospitalised patients in Cardiology Departments in Greece
Patients whose medical records are electronically stored in each hospital's computer/information systems
Disqualifiers
Patients that died during hospitalization, and thus no discharge letter was issued
Trial population
All patients who were hospitalized in the Cardiology ward of tertiary hospitals and have available electronically-stored clinical notes/hospitalization documents will be included in the study .
