This study introduces Merle, a script language for building decentralized medical information systems. Merle enables web browser access to patient data, integrating legacy applications with modern web features.

Area of Science:

  • Computer Science
  • Medical Informatics
  • Web Technologies

Background:

  • The need for accessible and efficient medical record systems is growing.
  • Existing systems often lack integration with modern web technologies.
  • Decentralized information retrieval is crucial for widespread access.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce the Merle script language as a tool for developing intranet-based medical information systems.
  • To facilitate the creation of efficient, multipoint systems for accessing patient information.
  • To enable legacy MUMPS applications to operate within a web environment.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing the Merle script language for system development.
  • Leveraging readily available components for intranet-based information system installation.

  • Integrating Merle with World Wide Web technologies for decentralized applications.
  • Main Results:

    • Merle supports the construction of fully functional, multipoint medical record information systems.
    • Systems built with Merle are accessible via low-cost web browsers for data search, retrieval, and analysis.
    • Merle allows legacy MUMPS applications to utilize web presentation services (graphical, sound, video).

    Conclusions:

    • Merle provides a valuable script language tool for enhancing medical record information systems.
    • The language facilitates the integration of diverse applications and operating systems within a web framework.
    • Merle enables broader access to patient information through accessible web browsers.
