The main goal of this work was to design a decision support system for effective personalized cardiovascular risk prevention: i) to identify behavioral groups associated with clinical risk factors, ii) to provide recommendations associated with the objective to be achieved and iii) to determine the decision-making rules assigning each group to the type of mobile health intervention conveying the most appropriate prevention messages, to help patients to achieve attainable goals. The system is based on an existing data prediction model taking into account specific risky behaviors, clinical risk factors and social status, and it is embedded in a new e-health application. The system is operational. The next step will be the design of a large study to assess improvements in patient adherence to prevention messages through e-health interventions selected by the application.
