title: An information system on toxicological risks linked to drug manipulation.
abstract: Aim of the project is to define and to implement an information system able to help people, who produce chemotherapic antineoplastic drugs, and health care operators, who manipulate such drugs, to prevent short and long term adverse effects connected to the above mentioned activities. The system is able to give a detailed and updated information about these problems, and to give an up-to date, from a professional point of view, to the users of the system. Also an information system prototype was implemented, which consists of an object-oriented database, a decision support system, able to manage and to plan a periodic control of workers, to verify the adverse effects of the antineoplastic chemotherapic drugs, a management system for the network communications.
