Abstract
A clinical-examination-numeral-data-processing system is constituted in which a plurality of laboratory observed values presented by items are transformed into positive and negative finite integers making observed values, including limitless values, the unit inside the interval of boundary values decided arbitrarily and they are ranked and processed according to the degree of importance on diagnosis, and it is made possible to perform transformation process for transforming a plurality of laboratory observed data presented by items being expressed by different units into the data being expressed with a comparable standardized unit, and to compose the transformed values of laboratory observed values to a list by examination items.
Claims5
A method for processing clinical numerical data, comprising the steps of:
- arbitrarily setting values corresponding to upper and lower normal threshold limits of a quantitative amount or concentration of an analyte of a subject, as respective equal positive and negative integers, to thereby define a range of normal quantitative analyte values whereby a lower limit normal quantitative value of said analyte corresponds to said negative integer, and an upper limit normal quantitative value of said analyte corresponds to said positive integer, wherein the average of all values in said range is zero;
- transforming observed quantitative measurements of said analyte from a particular subject into corresponding integers in accordance with said range defined by said upper and lower normal threshold limit integers;
- associating specific values of said transformed observed quantitative measurements of said analyte with specific diagnoses;
- and
- displaying said transformed quantitative measurement integers, whereby a clinician can automatically reach a diagnosis of said subject with respect to said quantitative measurement of said analyte, by observing said displayed transformed quantitative measurement integers.
A computer-readable storage medium having computer-executable instructions stored therein for causing a computer programmed with said instructions to process clinical numerical data, said instructions including instructions for:
- arbitrarily setting values corresponding to upper and lower normal threshold limits of a quantitative amount or concentration of an analyte of a subject, as respective equal positive and negative integers, to thereby define a range of normal quantitative analyte values whereby a lower limit normal quantitative value of said analyte corresponds to said negative integer, and an upper limit normal quantitative value of said analyte corresponds to said positive integer, wherein the average of all values in said range is zero;
- transforming observed quantitative measurements of said analyte from a particular subject into corresponding integers in accordance with said range defined by said upper and lower normal threshold limit integers;
- associating specific values of said transformed observed quantitative measurements of said analyte with specific diagnoses;
- and
- displaying said transformed quantitative measurement integers, whereby a clinician can automatically reach a diagnosis of said subject with respect to said quantitative measurement of said analyte, by observing said displayed transformed quantitative measurement integers.
