title: [Computerization in intensive care].
abstract: Computers already constitute an integral part of intensive care units as almost all pieces of sophisticated equipment in intensive care contain a computerized component. However, a marked lack of computerization exists with regard to data collection, data analysis and in teaching support systems. This article presents a summary of the advantages of computerization of data in intensive care and cautions on possible pitfalls in the choice of equipment and in its implementation.
