Article Synopsis
- - The American Heart Association's Get With The Guidelines (GWTG) program aims to enhance inpatient care for various cardiovascular conditions and utilizes real-world clinical data for biomedical research.
- - A scalable database was created using PostgreSQL, along with an integrated user interface (UI) developed in Python's Django, allowing efficient data processing, quality control, and user-friendly access to over 13.2 million patient records.
- - The newly implemented tools improve data management and accessibility, catering to both technical and non-technical researchers by simplifying data extraction and presenting it in an easy-to-understand format.
