摘要
Most observers would agree that the goal of computerizing the anesthesia record is a worthy one. Despite the fact that several academic groups and vendors have attempted to develop and provide computerized anesthesia charting, the practice is not widespread. In this review article, we attempt to outline the reasons for this reluctance to use computers for anesthesia charting. Where there are problems to be solved there also are opportunities. We discuss the development of strategies to solve these problems and thus present opportunities for medical informatics professionals and anesthesiologists to work toward joint solutions. Solving these problems includes the development of consensus standards and working out technical, social, and educational difficulties. Details of the approaches recommended are outlined.
