This study introduces a microcomputerized medical data system using a thesaurus of 2700 terms for efficient record management. The system enhances data retrieval and organization in intensive care units (ICUs).

Area of Science:

Medical Informatics
Computer Science

Background:

Developing efficient medical data management systems is crucial for healthcare.
Current methods for handling intensive care unit (ICU) records can be cumbersome.

Purpose of the Study:

To implement a user-friendly, microcomputerized system for managing medical records.
To improve the organization and retrieval of critical patient data in ICUs.

Main Methods:

A thesaurus of 2700 medical terms was developed and organized into two trees.
A dialogue-based interface with graphical navigation was created for user interaction.
A multilayered software architecture ensures system transparency and ease of use.

Main Results:

The system utilizes a thesaurus and graphical navigation for efficient data entry and retrieval.

Related Experiment Videos

A single automaton program manages the thesaurus and graphical pathways.

The software is implemented on a low-cost microcomputer with dual disk drives and a fast printer.

Conclusions:

The developed system offers a transparent and efficient solution for microcomputerized medical data management.
The use of a structured thesaurus and graphical interface simplifies medical record handling in ICUs.
