Summary
PERGYN is a scientific research project of a purely medical nature. Its goal is to procure and evaluate the entire body of perinatal and gynaecological data in all its complexity. Data input is based on standardized medical concepts. Further details on the medical concept are stored in a course tree. In conjunction with the interview machine the course tree creates storable medical data. Data evaluation criteria are definable in dialogue on screen. Other medical areas can also be integrated into the data model. The conversion of medical constituents of the course trees calls for a process as “knowledge engineering”.
