AbstractElectronic network of anesthesia patient information facilitates patient data flow and reduces administrative workload. We have developed a peri-operative information system which covers preoperative patient evaluation, operating room scheduling, staff assignment, electronic anesthesia record keeping, automated anesthesia billing, and quality assurance. Along with pre-, intra-, and post-operative patient data flow, each client computer and specific applications were implemented in a point-of-care setting. Analog wave form archiving and abundant perioperative database would contribute to educational and research purposes. Implications: The system covers pre-, intra-, and post-operative phases and has several characteristics which commercial systems do not have. The system facilitated both administrative and clinical anesthesia processes.
