    A new computer program, Clin-Query, allows healthcare professionals to easily search hospital databases for patient data. This tool supports clinical care, research, and education by enabling efficient retrieval of aggregate clinical information.

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Informatics
    • Health Services Research

    Background:

    • Accessing and analyzing aggregate clinical data is crucial for patient care, research, and education.
    • Existing methods for data retrieval can be cumbersome and time-consuming for healthcare professionals.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and evaluate a user-friendly computer program (Clin-Query) for searching hospital clinical databases.
    • To assess the utility of Clin-Query for patient care, medical education, and clinical research.

    Main Methods:

    • Design of a software tool enabling searches using clinical and demographic descriptors.
    • Implementation and utilization of Clin-Query within a hospital setting over a 5-year period.
    • Collection of usage statistics and user feedback via a computer-based questionnaire.

    Main Results:

    • Clin-Query was used 3724 times by 895 healthcare professionals.
    • Detailed information was displayed for 72,489 patients, with 5477 complete medical records requested.
    • Searches were conducted for patient care (16%), clinical research (38%), teaching (16%), administration (12%), and exploration (18%).

    Conclusions:

    • Physicians and allied health professionals will utilize tools that facilitate the examination and analysis of aggregate clinical information.
    • The development of intuitive clinical database search tools can significantly enhance medical practice and research.
