  • Abstract
    A computer-based system is being developed which, when integrated with existing clinical instrumentation, results in an intelligent workstation that can assist the nurse and clinician with management of the critically ill patient. The clinical focus is fluid-electrolyte, acid-base, and respiratory management. The design of the workstation incorporates prototypic components of intelligent instrumentation that have been developed for ventilator management and blood-gas analysis.<>
