In this practice, with a family practitioner committee list of 9726 patients, we use a computer register for recall, screening, morbidity data, audit, and repeat prescribing. The computing techniques used to achieve accuracy in maintaining the register are described. After one year of full use the register was validated by using the computer to select a random sample of 200 patients from patients' computer records that had not been updated recently. Two patients were untraceable, and in only 11 records were errors of information found, none of which was important. We think that it is feasible and valuable to have a household index.
在这项实践中，针对一份由9726名患者组成的家庭医生委员会名单，我们使用计算机登记系统进行召回、筛查、发病率数据统计、审计以及重复开药。文中描述了为确保登记系统准确性所采用的计算技术。在全面使用一年后，通过从近期未更新的患者计算机记录中随机抽取200名患者样本，对登记系统进行了验证。有两名患者无法找到，仅在11份记录中发现了信息错误，且均不严重。我们认为建立一个家庭索引是可行且有价值的。
