DataTools4Heart_Milestone MS12_Documentation and user manuals for the toolbox and VAs available for researchers, cardiologists, and data managers

Milestone MS12 establishes the availability of user-oriented documentation and manuals for the

DataTools4Heart (DT4H) toolbox and Virtual Assistants (VAs). The objective is to provide end-users,

namely researchers, cardiologists, and data managers, with structured guidance on how to navigate

and interact with DT4H components in their respective contexts.

The manuals focus on user flows, outlining the steps and interactions required to perform typical tasks

with the toolbox and VAs. For researchers, the documentation provides pathways to explore data and

analytical functionalities; for cardiologists, it demonstrates the integration of VAs within clinical decision

support workflows; and for data managers, it specifies how the toolbox supports data access,

governance, and compliance.

Prepared in a concise, accessible, and role-specific manner, the documentation enables stakeholders

to quickly identify the functionalities most relevant to their activities. To ensure usability and

dissemination, the manuals are consolidated in the DT4H documentation hub hosted on GitHub, which

serves as the central access point for all components and tools.

The means of verification for this milestone is the confirmed availability of these user guides and

manuals in the DT4H repositories. This milestone ensures that the DT4H toolbox and VAs are not only

technically operational but also practically usable and aligned with the workflows of the intended end-

user communities.
