Pediatrical case histories analyzed by means of a computer.
The authors present their first version of the formation of anamnestic case histories (family, personal, epidemiological, and social) by means of a conversation between the physician and the computer. During the recording a set of the means of expression is used, this allows for an exhaustive compilation and recording of various types of case histories. The means of expression called variables make up the questionnaire sentence. The case histories- conversations about them, are presented by the algorithm of the questionnaire in logical sequences which permit suprabound jumps off to other linkages. The created complexes-sentences are verified as a whole and then recorded. Portions of different types of case histories are demonstrated in this paper together with their possible side jumps. The possibilities of computer analysis lie in repeated recording, corrections, in the formation of statistical analyses of various data and, in the future, also in the formation of differential diagnostic considerations with the assistance of computers.
