Sinopsis

The Working Group 5 of the International Medical Informatics Associ­ ation (IMIA) dedicates its work to information systems in primary and ambulatory care. The first conference of this Working Group in Hanno­ ver in 1980 produced a review of the state of the art of that time and gave perspectives for future development (Rienhoff, O. and Abrams, M.E. (eds.): The Computer in the Doctor’s Office, Horth­ Holland, Amsterdam: 1980). In the meantime, a rapid development has taken place. Therefore it seemed appropriate to hold another working conference which was con­ ducted in Munich, December 2-6, 1985. The goal of this working conference was to review the developments in this field and to critically evaluate the progress achieved so far. The conference addressed general principles in system development and prerequisists for their successful introduction into routine use. Furthermore, the topics of expert systems and new technologies were discussed in the context of their usefulness and usability in ambula­ tory care systems. As before, it became very clear that actual computer systems to sup­ port ambulatory and/or primary care have to meet the conditions of the health care delivery systems, into which they are to be placed.

Reseña del editor

This book contains the second part of the proceedings of the second working conference on systems in ambulatory care of the International Medical Informatics Association (IMIA), Working Group 5. Participants from 19 countries discussed the structure of ambulatory care, related to computer support and experiences in the design and implementation of computer systems, particularly for private practitioners. Whereas the previous Volume 29 contains the descriptions of the health care environment in the various countries, this second part contains reviews of distribution, aspects of planning and further development, and the discussion results of working groups addressing the issues of expert systems and new technologies in ambulatory care. Together, the two volumes present a comprehensive, up-to-date picture of systems in ambulatory care in the majority of industrialized countries. 1
