Doctors and the health-care systems in all nations still largely use paper to communicate. This paper is shuttled from one hospital to another, often doesn ’t arrive on time and sometimes doesn’t show up at all. Some of the most important information is written in longhand, and how legible is your doctor’ s handwriting? Fortunately, there is a growing movement to change that, using electronic information technology. While relatively few providers use electronic health records in their offices, that figure is increasing rapidly. More doctors are using computers to order diagnostic tests and treatment. Gradually, institutions are building systems with common coding systems that allow them to exchange data.
The single most important benefit of electronic records is that they make it possible to deliver information to your doctor at the moment he is making decisions about you care. Instead of having to read through what can be hundreds of pages in your medical record to find a particular test results, or your weight has been over the past three years, that data are now available in an instant. Technology is also making it easier for patients to communicate with doctors and participate in their treatment—enabling them, for example, to ask for a refill and referral, or to transmit important information like the blood-pressure readings taken on home machines.
Prescribing medicines is also getting a lot safer and more efficient. Computers not only solve the legibility problem with prescriptions, they can also remind the doctor about potential adverse drug-drug interactions or patient drug allergies, and even recommend an adjusted dose based on a patient’s kidney function. In some hospitals, drug orders are bar-coded to be sure they are going to the right patient, and intravenous drugs are delivered through "smart pumps" that ensure the dose is acceptable. Without such checking, it is easy for a nurse to make an error, and give 10 times too much medication.
Computerizing medical care will be expensive, but there should be a huge return on investment. If not done properly, computerizing medical care can frustrate doctors and threaten the confidentiality of patient records. But in health-care systems that have adopted the technology, these are occasional problems, while improved safety, quality and efficiency are a daily reality.
Which of the following statements is true?
选项
A、The new health-care system with computers is too expensive to be adopted by most medical institution.
B、The number of hospitals where doctors use a computerized health-care system is increasing.
C、Even computers make mistakes, so it is safer for doctors and nurses to check each prescription.
D、In the future, patients don’t have to go to the hospital because they can get the diagnosis and the prescription online.
答案
B
解析
细节题。文章的第一段和最后一段提到这种系统正在被越来越多的医院使用,虽然贵,但是收效很大,但是没有说到大多数机构都买不起,故A错误,B正确。也没有提到电脑出错的问题,故C错误。电子病历只是方便了医生和患者的沟通,但并不是说患者就可以不去医院了,故D错误。故选B。
