Abstract :
A computer assisted management system is presented to support protocol-guided treatment of patients suffering from life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias. The system advises and keeps track of all relevant information. The setup of the system is flexible, so that deviations from the protocol and enhancements of the stored knowledge can be realized with modest effort. The programs are written in FORTRAN 77. The system runs under the RSX11M operating system on an LSI 11/73
