Integrated Computer Network for Acute Patient Care.
Year: 1984
Type: article
Abstract: Care of the acutely ill hospitalized patient places unusual demands on the practicing physician. Large amounts of physiologic, laboratory and other patient related data must be quickly and efficiently obtained and acted upon. The therapy for these patients is complex and time dependent and must be accurately documented. To help meet these demands an integrated computer network has been established to speed data communications, provide integrated data reporting and assist in medical decision-making. Experience with this computer network and its impact on patient care are discussed.
