title: An experimental electronic patient record for stroke patients.
abstract: This contribution describes an electronic patient record for stroke patients at the neurology ward of the Maastricht University Hospital. Daily practice at the ward will be supported with the developed electronic patient record that integrates both the medical and the nursing record, that will provide decision support and it will be connected to the hospital information system. In an evaluation project we will study the effects of the usage of the electronic patient record and additional effects of providing decision support.
