Implementation of a microcomputer-based opportunistic health maintenance programme in a general practice teaching clinic.

The general practice teaching clinic at the Chinese University of Hong Kong uses a microcomputerbased medical record system. To implement a uniform and up-to-date health maintenance programme, a set of protocols has been written for a list of health maintenance items, and the computer has been programmed to identify the items which should be carried out at each patient encounter. Over a period of 16 months, after the start of this programme, 99% of the 1120 clinic patients had a minimum of two items performed. Of a selected sample of 203 patients 119 attended the clinic more than once in the same period and 47% of these patients had all of the health maintenance items recommended for their age and sex group completed. Abnormal screening results led to action by the general practice team. The process of implementing a health maintenance programme has helped the team to discuss current recommendations and to agree on standards. The programme has also helped with undergraduate teaching. The automated opportunistic health maintenance programme is a practical tool for improving patient care.

[Computerized data storage of antibiograms obtained by various methods (automatic reading by 2 different systems or manual processing by the disk method) and retrieval of antibiograms and cytobacteriological data using microcomputers].

This software is composed of different programmes. It works on Apple IIe computers. It enables to capture all the data information concerning bacteriological tests to store them and to edit either personnel reports or global lists made out according to different criteria and to study them under both the statistical or the epidemiological aspects. The results of the antibiotic sensitivity test are notified either by an automatic reader (ABAC or API system) when carried out in a liquid environment or by an original computerized device (compass or enlarger) when manually carried out by the disc method. The informations are directly transmitted to the computer. It's possible to make up a common data file that can be exploited as a whole.
