Programming of the Computer Manager of Medical Processes “Medic Commander” Software Application on Computer Language Turbo C

Abstract

The use of a computer in medical practice today is limited to the creation of medical database management systems that consider all the requirements of the hospital and can provide simple and efficient storage of information about patients visiting the hospital, which completely leads to a reduction in paperwork and a decrease in the workload of the staff. However, no database management system permits a doctor to actively participate in the medical process itself, that is, to establish diagnostics, to choose a method of treatment and monitor for patients using a computer. The establishment of diagnostics, of the choice of the method of treatment and of observation of patients by the doctor using a computer succeeded to carry out using the previously developed computer medical process manager "Medical Commander" software application, occupying a small RAM of a personal computer and disk peripheral memory (no more than 250 KB), permitting to carry out computer statistical processing for effectively involvement a doctor in the process of diagnosis, treatment and using an interpolating prognosis for prediction of the observed symptoms and the results of treatment of patients in clinical practice. The article presents a computer program for the computer manager of medical processes "Medical Commander" in source codes written in the computer language Turbo C, showing how on the program level (sending commands to the computer - source codes) is carried out not only simply to create, fill, edit and receive on request doctor full information about the patient (medical database management system), in real time, but, using computer statistical processing of this information, to effectively participate in the processes of diagnosis, treatment and, using the optimal interpolating prognosis, to predict the studied symptoms and the results of treatment of patients in clinical practice.
