title: [Initial experiences with a new kind of computer compatible coding and analysis system for inpatient and ambulatory services].
abstract: This paper describes a new concept of an operational database management system including the word processing program "Word Star". The system structure is composed of patients identities and linked MIR's (medical information records) to follow a patient's history in space and time. In- and out-patient's data are collected on a special data sheet with numeric responses from the following areas: demographics including risk factors, diagnosis, surgical procedure, intra- and postoperative morbidity analysis. Data are entered using a DBS-16 concurrent dos system and stored on a 105 Megabytes hard disk. The software program in its compiled version allows for processes like outpatients clinic management, appointments organisation and statistical analysis of different variables thus providing detailed information on patients postoperative morbidity.
