[The data processing system in the Herford district hospital (author's transl)].
A problem analysis, independent of hardware, showed that the use of a multi-computer compound system is the most favorable solution for a general hospital. Together with the Federal Republic and the State of North Rhein-Westphalia, a hospital control system based on small computers by integration of the information flow of autarkic data processing subsystems was developed, and put into service. In this way communication and data management are carried out in one hierarchic high-ranking data processing subsystem, the data processing for medical technology (roentgendiagnosis radiotherapy, nuclear medicine, medical electronics, clinical chemistry laboratory) and administration in autarkic subsystems.
