[Electronic data processing storage and analysis of allergologic data with reference to epidemiologic and occupational dermatologic aspects].

Abstract

At our contact dermatitis clinic the computer program ALLDAT (Allergy Data System) was developed with the opportunity of storing and analysing different patients data and various kinds of test reactions with regard to epidemiology and occupational dermatology. Because of the internal construction of the data base, high flexibility and optimization of storage (2000 patient/year----1 MB) is achieved. Persons without both program and computer experience are able to enter data, perform analysis and view results after a short period of instruction.
