Design & implementation of an automated questionnaire.

This paper describes a system which allows the patient to answer a structured questionnaire in private, at their own speed and without pressure using a touch-screen personal computer. A clinical report is generated immediately and used to help guide a clinician in a face to face consultation with the patient. Trials in a clinical setting have shown a positive response by both patients and clinicians.

Strategic plan for promoting ICNP in Romania.

Preparing Romanian nursing community for the newcoming health information systems is not an easy task and has to start with the structuring of nursing information. That means that the free text of nursing documentation has to be mould, in a first stage, into a nursing language. Then, using a classification system, it will be possible for it to be captured in an electronic health record. This paper is presenting the strategy proposed by the Working Group for Nursing Informatics of the Romanian Medical Informatics Society for developing the Romanian version of the International Classification for Nursing Practice(ICNP) and the dissemination actions associated.

Visual Health Information Profile (VHIP). A quantitative approach for analysing the health status of a population.

A new approach for illustrating and analysing the health status of a given population is presented. The concept takes the multi-dimensional nature of health into account. It is based on a clearly out-lined indicator hierarchy, a decile reference system and a computerised information system. The instrument displays the health status of a population and allows comparisons to be made of various health aspects for a given population at different times and allows comparisons to be made of different populations during given time periods. It is possible to represent quantitative and qualitative aspects of health, to monitor the impact of interventions, and to assess the extent to which objectives in the health field have been achieved. Therefore, it can serve as an instrument for communication between policy makers and scientists to manage and to co-ordinate programs that aim at an improvement of the health status and to assist in the priority setting process. The method was applied to several countries using the World Health Organisation's (WHO) "Health For All Global Indicator Database" as the main data source. Country and region specific health status patterns could be generated showing the practicability of the approach. Using a computerised information system, a high degree of transparency and flexibility with respect to the input data and the choices of measurables was achieved.
