The Ideal

Two years ago, the Mexican Transportation Institute began to develop a computer-based management system of the information collected by various organizations about accidents occurring on the Federal Road Network. This system combines the information gathered by these organizations with the purpose of completing and validating the data so that tools can be developed for processing and analyzing the validated data and the processed data and developed tools can be made available to users. It was decided to support the development of such efforts on computer databases already being generated, on database processing and management software, on geographic information systems, and on remote data-exchange systems (e.g., the Internet). The progress made so far in the development of the computer system is reviewed. The system has been named the “Relational Accident Database Management System for Mexican Federal Roads” (SAIACF, in Spanish). The information sources beneficial to this project are identified and analyzed. The ideal scheme conceived for the integration of the various information sources is presented, and the SAIACF system is outlined. Some of the results obtained after its application to the information corresponding to 1997 are shown. Also, the element that was generated to make the information and the tools available to users is described, and conclusions are drawn.

Perinatal Database

Obstetric services have long recognized the need for ongoing evaluation of their experiences. Manual »departmental statistics« systems sufficed, but with the advent of more sophisticated care, perinatal re-gionalization and increased research activity, the potential usefulness of computer technology became obvious. At Cleveland Metropolitan General Hospital, a laboratory computer based patient information file system was designed and implemented beginning in 1974. Over the succeeding six years, data have been collected and stored for all delivered pregnancies. There are now over 61,000 files for more than 20,000 consecutively delivered patients. The system provides over 40,000 clinical reports per year. However, the use of a file-oriented system has limited our ability to respond to specific research queries. The application of a relational database management system, INGRES, for perinatal information is reported here. Examples of its use for efficiently »answering questions« are presented, as are guidelines for the development and implementation of computer-based perinatal record systems.

Database Management System

The chapter presents the geographic information systems. A geographic information system (GIS) is a computer system that allows various sources to gather and organize, manage, analyze and combine, develop, and present geographically located information contributing in particular to the management from space. A geographic information system is also a database management system for entering, storing, retrieving, querying, analyzing, and displaying localized data. It is a set of data located in space, structured so that it can conveniently extract syntheses useful to the decision.

A new planning model was developed that does not specify parallel road networks as in existing models (e.g. Larsson's). The new model, based on the 'travelling salesman' algorithm, consists of 2 complementary models for flat and broken terrain which are reproduced in the synopsis together with Larsson's model. Software (written in FORTRAN 77) was developed for these models, incorporating a database management system (an existing commercial program) for program variables.

AbstractAn object-oriented medical database management system is presented for a typical cardiologic center, facilitating epidemiological trials. Object-oriented analysis and design were used for the system design, offering advantages for the integrity and extendibility of medical information systems. The system was developed using object-oriented design and programming methodology, the C++ language and the Borland Paradox Relational Data Base Management System on an MS-Windows NT environment. Particular attention was paid to system compatibility, portability, the ease of use, and the suitable design of the patient record so as to support the decisions of medical personnel in cardiovascular centers. The system was designed to accept complex, heterogeneous, distributed data in various formats and from different kinds of examinations such as Holter, Doppler and electrocardiography.
