Description

Although a hospital has much medical information, even information which has been digitally entered, such as basic information of a patient, name of the disease, examination results, images, and even prescription history, is not effectively utilized. In fact, many facilities use this information simply for reports by the hospital office division, such as bed occupancy rate, average days of hospitalization, and unit price of the medical care, to prepare receipts, or to fill out DPC related information to be submitted to the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare. At this time, usability of IBARS (medical office work system), girasol (DPC analysis software), and D☆D (search software of standardized data), was verified. IBARS is useful in the analysis of billing items, but data abstraction is time consuming. Girasol has simple visualization of clinical indicators and can easily link to GIS, but is limited to targeting only patients who are hospitalized and not to the examination results. D☆D is reliable for indicator analysis which includes examination results, and search of drug-induced cases, but certain skills regarding search logic, are needed. Application of latent information in each hospital database can be expected.
