Currently most of general practice uses Read codes to record structured data in computers [ 2, 3].
All of the vendors and internally-developed systems stated that they supported the use of a variety of controlled clinical terminologies (e.g., LOINC, SNOMED, ICD-9, Medcin, RxNorm, etc). to record structured clinical findings, although not all clients make use of these features.
Study personnel recorded structured epidemiologic and clinical data, including duration of illness and the clinical provider's presumptive diagnosis, on a standardized form.
Other elements which contain school-specific information (eg forms used for recording structured learning events or module feedback) are individually adaptable for each school from generic templates.
Within the informatics literature, barriers to recording structured coded information tend to be broadly described as either 'technical' or 'socio-cultural' [ 7].
Hospital records, structured diagnostic interviews in clinical settings, and school-based psychological testing have been used extensively in high-income countries to assess both prevalence of childhood mental illness and the response of children to intervention.
We collected data for potential confounding variables from neuropsychological testing instruments, standardized psychometric test batteries, hospital records, structured interviews, and repeated assessments of the home environment [Home Observation for Measurement of the Environment (HOME 1985)] and socioeconomic status (SES).
An established methodology, consisting of a baseline audit of inpatient medical records, structured patient interviews and general practitioner surveys, followed by an educational intervention and follow-up audit, is used.
Annotators are code written by system users which analyzes documents and attempts to record structure.
Moreover, it is responsible for sorting record sets, navigating through logical record structures, making joins, and similar higher-level operations.
The procedures include validations of record structure data, range/limits, time and internal consistency, persistence and spatial consistency tests.
