title: [Use of a computer for the preparation of medical history screening in cardiovascular diseases].
abstract: Questionable data may be regarded as significant indicators for a screening. It is the aim of our investigations to develop a screening standard anamnesis in form of a questionaire which allows on the scale of larger groups of population to establish the number of endangered persons and patients who probably suffer from cardiovascular diseases but of the quantity of apparantly healthy persons. In order to recognize regularities of the diagnostics coordination of the individual patient by his answers on the questionnaire the data of 400 diagnostically clarified persons (model experiment) underwent a discriminancy analysis. When the data of unknown test persons are given in, on account of the well-known functions of discriminancy a classification in the groups persons with heart and circulatory diseases or with a healthy heart and circulation or a group diagnosis can be performed, respectively. The evaluation of the data of unknown test persons of a pilot study in 96% resulted in a correct classification in patients with heart and circulatory diseases or persons with healthy heart and circulation, the classification in the above mentioned groups of diagnosis was performed on an average to 57%.
