The European STREP project HEARTFAID aims at defining an innovative platform of services able to intelligently support clinical operators in the daily management of heart failure patients. The core of the platform intelligence is a Clinical Decision Support System, developed by integrating innovative knowledge representation techniques and hybrid reasoning methods, and including advanced tools for the analysis of diagnostic data, i.e. signals and images. Aiming at showing how all these issues are combined in the HEARTFAID platform, we present a comprehensive use case, centred on echocardiography workflow and covering the clinical course leading from visit scheduling to therapeutic choices, highlighting the intervention and the value added by the Clinical Decision Support System.
