Use Of Super-Concepts To Customize Electronic Medical Records Data Display

Patient medical record systems (MRS) merely offer static applications, in which mostly unstructured text is linked to coded data. In these applications the more common presentation is a time oriented one, which does not allow easily for data and information retrieval. Concept oriented views based on supper-concepts (metaterms) initially defined in CISMeF to optimize Web medical search, was implemented in our MRS as specialties views. This work shows that these terminological tools are able to facilitate information retrieval.
