Abstract

The missing integration of data in different areas of the healthcare domain is reason for a significant number of drug interactions and side effects[1-5]. At least a significant reduction of the number of serious adverse events (SAE) is demanded because of ethical and also because of economical reasons. The need for information exchange between the healthcare providers is evident [6]. Different regional and even national projects implement and evaluate solutions to implement an electronic patient record . They include card based solutions, peer-to-peer networks and even server-centric solutions [7-13, cf. SMI 52]. In only few projects the complete patient record is directly made accessible. There is always a chance that parts of the patient data remain hidden. Thus, a treatment or medication surveillance can only report problems unimpeachable: if a problem is reported, it will be there. But in general, the negation is not true.
