Clinical information systems support patient care and research while providing data for administrative use. We assessed the informational needs of the psychiatrists at UCLA Neuropsychiatric Hospital and used the resulting criteria in evaluating commercial computer products. The systems that appear to be least expensive, most powerful, and most suitable for widespread use are assembled from various off-the-shelf packages. These newer systems use a structured query language (SQL) database with a graphic user interface. An SQL database can support both large and small clinical operations, and a graphic interface is easy to use. Commercial software systems are too expensive for a small psychiatric hospital or department, but a customized SQL database can be purchased and installed at lower cost.
临床信息系统在为行政用途提供数据的同时，还支持患者护理和研究。我们评估了加州大学洛杉矶分校神经精神病医院精神科医生的信息需求，并将所得标准用于评估商业计算机产品。那些似乎最便宜、功能最强大且最适合广泛使用的系统是由各种现成的软件包组装而成的。这些较新的系统使用带有图形用户界面的结构化查询语言（SQL）数据库。SQL数据库可以支持大大小小的临床操作，而且图形界面易于使用。商业软件系统对于小型精神病医院或科室来说过于昂贵，但可以以较低成本购买并安装定制的SQL数据库。
