| pubmed-article:10112539 | pubmed:abstractText | A busy intensive-care unit in the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Palo Alto, Calif., has begun to put the power of workstation technology to good use in caring for the facility's sickest patients. Adam Seiver, M.D., chief of general surgery, told Computers in Healthcare that the system tracks patient information far more accurately than the manual methods used previously. Before the system, a patient's ICU records were filed away after each 48-hour period. Now a complete history of the patient's ICU stay is accessible at the beside through the duration of the episode. | lld:pubmed |
