dc.description.abstractOBJECTIVE: To develop a simple software for management of fibreoptic bronchoscopy records. METHODS: After identification of the specific needs at our hospital, a software was developed. A graphical interface with structured data entry related to patient information and diagnosis, bronchoscopic findings and specimens obtained, and their reports were envisaged. After initial construction, the software was tested over a four-week period. The software was put to routine use after necessary corrections, and validated over the next few months through actual data entry. RESULTS: The software has various modules for input and modification of data, as well as for generation of reports, and can work both on stand-alone personal computers and on networks. With little practice, residents soon became adept at entering details correctly and quickly. The slightly increased time of data entry into the computer was more than made up by uniform and complete report generation. The database component was evaluated by analyzing 1000 consecutive records entered over a 14-month period, and no discrepancies were observed. CONCLUSION: A user-friendly software providing uniform and complete data entry regarding fibreoptic bronchoscopic procedures was developed.en_US
