  • Title: [Industry branch-specific evaluation of occupational medicine fitness and monitoring examination using a user friendly electronic data processing program for industrial physicians].
    Author: Baumann-Henke H, Harre H.
    Journal: Z Gesamte Hyg; 1989 Sep; 35(9):545-7. PubMed ID: 2588710.
    Abstract:
    Industrial fitness and regular screening examinations as called for by vocational disease regulations in the GDR yield large amounts of data relating to places of work and to those members of the work force whose fitness must be verified prior to employment and at regular intervals thereafter. These data must be available to the work's doctor in the various combinations he needs to ensure the medical well-being of the employees and to act as an adviser on matters of industrial hygiene. Several programs have been developed for implementation on distributed ESER computers to solve this problem. The primary records "Arbeitshygienische Komplexanalyse--Dokumentationsbeleg" (industrial hygiene record) and "Grunduntersuchungsbogen--Datanerfassungsbeleg" (medical data record based on fitness checks) are recorded and checked by desk-top computer and subsequently linked to the wage file record by mainframe for analysis. Examples encountered at a shipyard are used to describe the different programs and some of the ways in which they can be linked. The ability to select any combination of data concerning industrial medical, hygiene and income related matters is a major advantage for the work's doctor.
