    A new computerized system aids psychiatric diagnosis for hyperactivity. Clinicians found the diagnostic evaluation process clinically sound and useful for training and comparing to other medical problem diagnostics.

    Area of Science:

    • Computer Science
    • Psychiatry
    • Medical Informatics

    Background:

    • Psychiatric diagnosis can be complex, requiring systematic evaluation.
    • The Problem-Oriented Medical Information System (PROMIS) provides a framework for medical data management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and evaluate a computerized system for the diagnostic evaluation of psychiatric problems.
    • To assess the utility of this system for diagnosing hyperactivity.

    Main Methods:

    • A three-step diagnostic process was computerized: defining the problem, considering common/reversible causes, and considering other causes.
    • Eleven physicians, including six psychiatrists, utilized the system for evaluating hyperactivity.

    Main Results:

    • Psychiatrists found the diagnostic evaluation organization clinically sound and a valuable training tool.
    • Non-psychiatric physicians viewed the process as analogous to diagnosing other medical issues.

    Conclusions:

    • The computerized system offers a structured and effective approach to psychiatric diagnostic evaluation.
    • The system is perceived as beneficial for both training and general medical diagnostic comparison.
