Abstract:
Objective To research and develop a computer-based patient record (CPR) system so as to realize the collection, processing, storage, transmission and application of patient information. Methods A CPR system was accomplished through developing a structural patient record, a text editor, techniques of database security, a knowledge base of on-line help, real-time monitoring, print control and function expansion. Results The CPR system, established with the above techniques, was put into use in two third-tier hospitals. It was proved via practice that the system, sound in operation, safe and stable, easy to maintain, and compatible, enhanced medical quality and clinical efficiency. Conclusion ①Creating a structural patient record is the basis of realizing CPR. ②Developing a specialized editor is the key to bringing about CPR. ③Possessing perfect database security techniques is the guarantee for starting CPR. ④Constructing a knowledge base of on-line help is an effective way to help doctors raise the level of their clinical decisions. ⑤The CPR system is an effective means of improving the quality of patient records.⑥The CPR system is also an effective means of improving the efficiency of patient record writing.
