Requirements for information about medical parameters in the field of ophthalmology

详细

The authors came to conclusion that modern concept of medical information systems imply the development of electronic case-record using medical archives, results of laboratory and instrumental researches,based on modern information exchange technologies. The main criterion of realisation of this concept is solving of diagnosis problems. All parameters of diagnosis and treatment can be divided into three groups: measurable, observable and calculable. Measurable parameters — parameters, whose quantitative meanings can be measured with the help of special equipment and procedures of ist application. Observable parameters — parameters that can be observed with the help of biomicroscope, fundus-camera, ophthalmoscope and etc. Specific characteristic of these parametrs is not a qualitative evaluation,but quantative description and high level of subjectivity. The third group — parameters that cannot be measured or observed. These parameters can be received computationally or in the process of simulating. These parameters are result of mechanical and mathematical simulation of physiological and pathologic process of visual organ. The authors suggested requirements for ophthalmological workstation.
