Computer controlled repeat prescribing used to analyse drug management.

F Difford

    British Medical Journal (Clinical Research Ed.)
    |September 8, 1984
    PubMed
    Summary

    A new computer program analyzes drug combinations for specific diagnoses, improving prescription management. This system aids in systematic drug selection and detailed practice audits for better pharmacological analysis.

    Area of Science:

    • Pharmacology
    • Health Informatics
    • Computer Science

    Background:

    • Routine computer use in medical practices for prescription management is established.
    • Analyzing complex drug combinations presents a significant challenge for healthcare providers.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and present a computer-based method for analyzing drug treatment combinations.
    • To systematically identify appropriate drugs for given diagnoses and generate detailed management printouts.

    Main Methods:

    • A computer program was developed to analyze drug combinations based on diagnoses.
    • The program systematically identifies and combines appropriate drugs.
    • Detailed printouts of drug management within the practice are generated.

    Main Results:

    • The developed program effectively analyzes drug combinations for specific diagnoses.
    • Systematic drug identification and combination are achieved through the program.
    • Detailed pharmacological analysis of practice drug management is enabled.

    Conclusions:

    • The computer program provides a systematic approach to analyzing drug combinations.
    • This method enhances the ability to manage and audit drug treatments in a practice.
    • The system facilitates further pharmacological analysis by computer users.
