ABSTRACT
Introduction: The difficult gathering of information on the prevalence and development of acute myocardial infarction makes it impossible to measure the quality of treatment during the course of the disease in a given group of patients.Objective: To develop a computer system that allows the management of hospital information on acute myocardial infarction in the Department of Cardiology.
Method: The variables required for making the registry were identified. They were divided into blocks related to prehospital care, acute coronary syndrome, coronary care units and discharge. A computer system that uses NetBeans as an integrated development environment, Apache as a web server and a MySQL database was created. The programming language used was PHP with Yii framework on the server side and JavaScript with ExtJs 4.1.1 framework on the user side. ER/Studio was used as database modeler.
Results: A Hospital Registry of Acute Myocardial Infarction (RHIMA by its acronym in Spanish) was devised for implementation at the "Gustavo Aldereguía Lima" Hospital in Cienfuegos, Cuba. It was possible to obtain immediate statistical data that allowed an analysis of the healthcare of patients with this disease.
Conclusions: A web computer system which is capable of managing the information on acute myocardial infarction was developed. Its design, which is in keeping with the National Health System in Cuba, takes into account the epidemiological and demographic characteristics of the Cuban population and provides quality indicators in therapeutics for the recording of information on acute myocardial infarction in accordance with the recommendations of the main Clinical Practice Guidelines.
