Abstract

A notification variant has been designed on the basis of the No. 089 form "Notification of a patient with newly diagnosed active tuberculosis", which is used for information feeding into computer on persons with newly diagnosed tuberculosis and on those registered in a dispensary; it is also used as a corrective coupon. The automated system for information processing "Tuberculosis" has been developed which allows a centralized control over the early detection and dispensarization of patients, efficient assessment of the accumulated information and proper decision making. The effectiveness of the electronic devices used in dispensary work can be improved on the condition that phthisiologists are provided with personal computers.
