Simplified computerization of data-base for diabetic patients.

A computerized data-base for the management of the out-patient clinic for diabetes and of the hospital diabetic patients has been developed by means of low cost commercial microcomputer. The program is able to supply lists of sets of patients chosen from user-defined characteristics. The system also allows the selected listin of recall letters for periodic examinations, the printing of registers for medical and administrative use and for statistical analysis. The system is easy to learn and easy to use. The operator-computer interaction is colloquial through the use of a video-terminal, permitting the use by nominally-trained staff.

The aim was to encourage good practice and develop a standardised record-keeping system.
