This orthopaedic oncology service utilizes a specialized computer system, FOXPRO, for patient treatment management. The system integrates patient demographics, records, and research data, enhancing clinical care.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopaedic Oncology
  • Health Informatics
  • Medical Software Systems

Background:

  • A dedicated computer system has been integral to patient care in orthopaedic oncology for 15 years.
  • The system evolved from an independent DOS/Windows program (FOXPRO) to its current integration within Microsoft systems.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To detail the components of an established computer system used in orthopaedic oncology.
  • To define the system's application in managing patient treatment data.

Main Methods:

  • Description of the computer system's architecture and functionalities.
  • Utilizing the FOXPRO database management system (now part of Microsoft).

Main Results:

  • The system manages diverse patient information, including demographics, office, and surgical records.
