Abstract

An integrated heart surgery system is under development. The system is the successor of two previous home-build generations of automatic charting systems for the anaesthetist and the perfusionist during heart surgery. The system can be used to collect, present and archive all important physiological parameters, the medical events, and the medical and administrative data. The system is connected to the monitoring system, our custom-build heart-lung system and the servo ventilators. It includes access to the hospital information system, and the departmental information systems of the Thoraxcenter. The first preliminary version of this system will be introduced into our operation rooms in the summer of 1996
