It is important work in the department of emergency medicine to manipulating data for the emergency patients. We developed a computer program for effectively managing data of the emergency patients and department on Dec. 1991, and began to build
database on Jan. 1992. This program offers the various tools and function for manipulating data, for quickly finding and displaying the information as you need, and for obtaining the basic results and analyses for quality assurance.
The program was coded in a programming mode of FoxPro 2.5, and runs on IBM-PC-compatible computers. The systemic configurations to use properly, requires DOS 5.0 in O.S. (operating system), 4 Megabytes or more in RAM (Random Access Memory), 100
Megabyts
or more in Hard Disk capacity, at least 10 Megabytes in available disk space, and intel-80386 (32 bits) in computer processing chip. The 8 bits combination codes are applied to write "Hangeul" (Korean ianguage character).
This program provides the various functions as the followings.
1. Be able to input, output, and search data as you need.
2. Be able to obtain the various reports by analysing the patient data.
3. Be able to retrieve the article data in Journal of Korean Society of Emergency Medicine, American Journal of Emergency Medicine, and Annals of Emergency Medicine as keywords, authors, etc.
4. Be able to manage the departmental data. By examples, manager of the emergency members, scheduler of the department, and collection book of the common senses in emergency medicine.
5. Other programs, which to rest and back up the selected data files for safely maintaining program, are supplied
6. Be able to study and prospectively analyze the clinical data by inserting the predefined optional programs.
We expect the more advanced and beneficial program to manage data for the emergency patients and department.
