Zusammenfassung:A heavy reliance on the use of narrative text to record information in the COSTAR (COmputer STored Ambulatory Record) medical record has made automated analysis of the data difficult. Front-end microprocessors and new data capturing mechanisms have made it possible to develop methods which facilitate entry of medical data in codable form. A prototype of such a system developed at the Laboratory of Computer Science is described here.
