Abstract:
The author has developed comprehensive computerized charting software, Dr. Welford's Chart Notes Program, that interprets each portion of a patient record for the 4,653 QMR Findings and exports the identified Findings to a file that can be imported by QMR for immediate case analysis. The QMR Link utilizes a hierarchical Vocabulary System composed of approximately 20,000 terms and a "fuzzy logic" that identifies similar and implicit concepts as well as exact matches to QMR Findings. This system thereby makes it much quicker and easier to utilize QMR in evaluating a patient's illness.
