[Computers in general practice of the established gynecologist: market status--electronic data processing solutions--electronic data processing problems--future perspectives].

Since the end of the seventies a great change of edp-use in gynecological private practice took place. Many applications (for example ICD-coding) are not feasible in short time. In medicine, the electronic data processing is not as practicable as the technical progress permits. In only a few programs we can find gynecological specific electronic data processing solutions, networks between private practices, hospitals and Internet access. It is necessary to claim edp-solutions for gynecological private practice and define standards for programming electronic data processing in medicine.

[Electronic data processing in urologic clinics. Results of a survey. Electronic Data Processing in Urology Group of the Graduate and Continuing Education Commission of German Urologists].

Computer equipment in Departments of Urology in Germany was evaluated by a nation-wide questionnaire. One hundred and fifty-three questionnaires were returned with detailed information on computer hardware, software and applications in Urology. Most departments were equipped with at least one computer. Computer equipment varied considerably among the participants including both stand alone personal computers (PCs) and local area networks (LANs) with several PCs connected by cable. Typically, PCs were IBM-compatible and ran the MS-DOS operating system Word processing and related applications were the most frequently mentioned computer tasks in urology. In some departments computers are also used in research for production of databases and graphics and for statistical applications. When computers were used for documentation of therapy and/or medical records, software was often custom-made according to the department's specific needs. In the future, more computers will be needed in departments of urology, because medical records will have to meet higher standards of documentation.

[Electronic data processing in medical microbiology--a guide and some critical thoughts].

Applications of electron data processing in all fields of medicine and especially in medical microbiology are increasing rapidly. It seems important to discuss a guide for using such complicated electronical systems, because, on the one hand, computer applications in medicine are desirable for scientific reasons, but on the other hand few very costly and sophisticated projects had to be cancelled, after a shorter or longer time of implementation by reason of lack of co-operation of medical collaborators. This paper puts on discussion such a guide for using electronic data processing in medical microbiology. It is proposed to put through the following tasks before introducing a computer system into a microbiological institution: a system analysis of the status quo, an objective determination of the set state, a system design and a cost-benefit analysis. Those tasks are described in detail and are illustrated to some extent by graphics and tables from own research for preparing a data processing system for medical microbiology. It is emphasized that beside hard- and software criteria of the desired computer system one has to pay attention to the problems of man-machine engineering. The paper finishes with concrete propositions of proceeding when the computer system is implemented and shows possibilities of scientific data evaluation of a microbiological data base.
