Establishment of a Simple Pediatric Lower Respiratory Tract Infections Database Based on the Structured Electronic Medical Records.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This study aimed to establish a pediatric lower respiratory tract infections (PLRTIs) database based on the structured electronic medical records (SEMRs), to provide a brief overview and the usage process of the SEMRs and the database.

Methods

All the medical information is recorded by a clinical information system developed by Eureka Systems Company. A plugin of the software was used to set the properties of items of the SEMR. Children with lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) who were admitted to the department of respiratory medicine of our hospital from May 2020 were included. PostgreSQL 13.1 software was used to construct the PLRTIs database.
