Cardiology Visit Summary
Each completed session for a CARDIOLOGY clinic generates a CardiologyVisitSummary record:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Heart Rate | bpm |
| Blood Pressure | mmHg (systolic/diastolic) |
| Weight / BMI | Auto-calculated |
| NYHA Class | I / II / III / IV (heart failure) |
| Rhythm | Sinus / AF / Flutter / Paced / Other |
| Symptoms | Chest pain, dyspnoea, palpitations, syncope, oedema |
| Current Medications | Free text or linked prescription |
| ECG Summary | Free-text interpretation |
| Echo Summary | Free-text interpretation |
| Assessment & Plan | Free text (SOAP) |
| Next Review | Date |

Cardiology Risk Profile
A one-time (or annually updated) risk assessment per patient.
### Risk Factors
- Hypertension, Diabetes, Smoking, Dyslipidaemia, Family history of CAD
- Obesity (BMI > 30), Sedentary lifestyle, CKD
### Calculated Scores
The AI Cardiology Risk Narrative module generates a structured risk summary using the patient's demographics, comorbidities, and recent investigations.
Access it from: Session → AI → Cardiology Risk Narrative.

Cardiac Studies
Record investigations linked to the patient:
| Study Type | Fields |
|---|---|
| ECG | Date, interpretation, rate, rhythm, intervals, file upload |
| Echocardiogram | EF%, LVIDd, LVIDs, wall motion, valves |
| Stress Test | Protocol, max HR achieved, ischaemia, conclusion |
| Holter Monitor | Duration, arrhythmias detected |
| CT Coronary Angiography | CAC score, stenosis findings |
| Cardiac MRI | Report text, file upload |
| Nuclear Scan | Perfusion findings |
All studies link to the patient chart and are visible in the session sidebar.

Cardiac Devices
For patients with pacemakers, ICDs, or CRT devices:
- Patient chart → Cardiac Devices → + Add Device.
- Record: device type, manufacturer, model, serial number, implant date, lead details.
- Set Remote Monitoring tasks — scheduled checks with auto-reminders.

Cardiology Chronic Disease Programme
For patients in a structured cardiac rehab or heart failure programme:
- Patient chart → Cardiology Programme → Enrol.
- Define programme visits, targets, and milestones.
- Each visit is linked to the programme record with progress tracking.
