A drawback of looking through computer-based medical records is the accompanying sense of disorientation. It is at least as difficult to retrieve meaningful information from a ten megabytes electronic medical record than from a ten inch thick patient chard. We believe that a combination of techniques such as graphics, hypertext and knowledge-based systems implemented on top of a medical database can assist the user to easily access on-line complex records and retrieve more easily the information he needs. In this paper, we describe more particularly how we coupled hypertext functions with an existing frame-based expert system and its related patient database. |
