[The information system for decision support in medication].
In everyday clinical and ambulantory medication, a physician is expected to prescribe drugs for a patient based on accurate information about the patient and the drugs. Even for the physician who has particular intereset in drugs, it is laborious to achieve drug information such as adverse reactions, contraindications or drug - drug interactions each time he prescribes drugs for his patients. For the system of prescription support, the major problems are in the standardization of drug information and decision criteria for medication. In integrated hospital information system the data for patients and the drug information are stoped and maintained as data base. Also, it is needed to support drug purchase, inventory and drug delivery to the nursing centers in wards. The concept of information system for decision support in medication are described in the paper.
