Abstract
Decisions in a large hospital by doctors, nurses, managers, and information specialists are based on the information available. To make informed decisions the necessary information must be accurate and conveniently accessible. Large hospitals play a key role in the US health care system and their needs for information management are complex and in some cases unique. This paper examines some of the user requirements and components for a critical care information system from a health care provider´s point of view
