In the rapidly evolving landscape of healthcare, Cardiology remains a challenging field that demands precise analysis and synthesis of data from various sources, including lab tests, cardiac imaging, electrical activity monitoring, and physical examinations. With the advent of electronic health records (EHR) technology, cardiologists faced initial frustrations due to the inability of early systems to effectively capture the intricate data required for heart-related patient care. The critical role of semantic interoperability became evident as the backbone for improving healthcare efficiency and efficacy.

Responding to the feedback from cardiologists, developers embarked on collaborative efforts to refine EHR software tailored specifically for cardiology practices.
