Time-oriented functional profile: practical applications in a stroke data-base model.
The feasibility of transferring data from a large computerized stroke data-base system (BUSTOP) to an existing time-oriented system of proven utility (ARAMIS) is demonstrated. Potential advantages of a time-oriented data-base system include: determination of prognostic indicators, suggestions for therapeutic intervention, analysis of experimental treatment programs, development of units of cost effectiveness and provision for uniform methods of auditing stroke care. This demonstration project shows that a large-scale stroke data-base system is feasible using existing computer models which are currently collecting and analyzing data-base statistics.
