Abstract

The similarities and differences between four computer-based medical record systems are compared, and their progress note facilities are examined. They are: COSTAR (Computer-Stores Ambulatory Record), TMR (The Medical Record), RMRS (Regenstrief Medical Record System), and STOR (Summary Time-Oriented Record). An intelligent problem-oriented progress note system is proposed for MEDAS (the medical emergency decision assistance system)
