Abstract:
Follow-up schemas are used in the planning of care delivery for patients who had a larynx tumour resection. Because of the diversity of this population, the idea has arisen that control schemas should be tuned to individual patient histories in order to optimize care delivery. To arrive at refined guidelines, detailed analysis of 300 case reports is planned. In this context a patient case report tool PCRT has been developed to support the analysis of computerized case reports. PCRT is based on an existing patient case report language and can generate case report charts using a newly developed charting method implemented with internet-based technology. This paper presents the charting method and explains the charting algorithm.
