Der Urologe. Ausg. A, Volume 29, Issue 1, 1 1 1990, Pages 19-22 [Use of electronic data processing at a urologic polyclinic--a program packet for recording and evaluating data of specialized consultations]. Schneider AW, Otto U, Conrad S, Klosterhalfen H
A software package was developed for computerized recording and processing of clinical data in a urological out-patient clinic. In a pilot study this program proved to be useful for the rapid evaluation of all important clinical and laboratory results of patients with renal cell carcinoma, and its use also accelerated the preparation of medical reports. The experience gained in this initial project shows that the application of this newly developed concept of data processing can easily be extended to routine out-patient followup in other special areas within the field of oncology.
