Patient histories, discharge summaries, and medical consultant reports are made up of written texts. Therefore, the gathering and archiving of these texts in machine-readable form has many characteristics of computer-based medical records. In Geneva, approximately 1,540 PCs are connected to the Hospital Information System DIOGENE 2, with the possibility of accessing all the functions offered by the system without losing any of their MS-DOS word processing capabilities. The UNIDOC system, presented in this paper, takes all these features into account, a real marriage of technologies between the MS-DOS environment and the distributed client-server architecture. The INGRES database management system supports the entire archiving process of the medical patient texts, structured by prelabelled paragraphs and automatically indexed. Both the quality and accessibility of the records are enhanced, while the archiving capacity is neither too limited nor too expensive.
患者病历、出院小结和医学顾问报告均由书面文本组成。因此，以机器可读形式收集和存档这些文本具有基于计算机的医疗记录的许多特征。在日内瓦，大约1540台个人电脑连接到医院信息系统DIOGENE 2，能够在不丧失任何MS-DOS文字处理功能的情况下访问该系统提供的所有功能。本文介绍的UNIDOC系统考虑到了所有这些特性，它是MS-DOS环境与分布式客户端-服务器架构之间真正的技术融合。INGRES数据库管理系统支持医学患者文本的整个存档过程，这些文本按预先标记的段落进行结构化并自动索引。记录的质量和可访问性都得到了提高，同时存档容量既不过于有限也不过于昂贵。
