Abstract

Analysis of the quality of different modes of preoperative information management on the example of primary total hip arthroplasty. Comparison between a since 10 years used, computer based system and a conventional procedure with additional hand-written notes. Retrospective analysis of respectively 50 with conventional and computer based system written preoperative patient information. The completeness of the documentation is examined according to the demands of current judgement. The results confirm, independent from the level of education, a complete documentation of all risks by applying the computer based system, whereas the conventional method leads to considerable lacks of documentation. The computer based system guarantees a high quality of preoperative patient information which cannot be obtained by the conventional method and therefore offers a protection against unjustified claims of liability.
