Abstract
Electronic health records (EHRs) are at the centre of advances in health informatics, but also many other innovations in healthcare. However, there are still obstacles to implementation and realisation of the full potential of EHRs as there are with learning health systems (LHS). Cardiovascular disease, in the UK and globally, carries greater morbidity and mortality than any other disease. Therefore, planning and delivery of health services represent major costs to individuals and populations. Both the scale of disease burden and the growing role of technology in cardiology practice make analysis of experiences with EHRs in cardiology a useful lens through which to view achievements and gaps to date. In this article regarding LHS, EHRs in cardiology are used as a case study of LHS in the NHS.
