A computerized information system for diabetes services.
The utilization of a computer-assisted information system may be both useful and efficacious in the care and follow-up of diabetic patients. The model developed by us operates under GCOS-6 on a Microsystem 6/10 Honeywell computer (20 MB hard-disk storage, 512 kb central memory) and allows the creation of clinical data files for individual patients, statistical analysis of the data, and a print-out of clinical records. The package, which may be employed on a multi-user system, is supplied with an easy to understand user's manual. It represents an effective tool for the precise management of the care of diabetic patients and also provides several opportunities for research.
