Objective To construct a database containing multiple kinds of
diseases that can provide "real world"data for first-
aid clinical
research.
Methods Structured or non-structured information from
hospital information system,
laboratory information system,
emergency medical system,
emergency nursing system and bedside
monitoring instruments of
patients who visited department of
emergency in PLA
General Hospital from January 2014 to January 2018 were extracted. Database was created by forms, code
writing, and data process. Results
Emergency Rescue Database is a single center database established by PLA
General Hospital. The information was collected from the
patients who had visited the
emergency department in PLA
General Hospital since January 2014 to January 2018. The database included 530 585
patients' information of
triage and 22 941
patients' information of
treatment in critical rescue room, including information related to
human demography,
triage,
medical records,
vital signs, lab tests, image and
biological examinations and so on. There were 12 tables (
PATIENTS,
TRIAGE_
PATIENTS, EMG_
PATIENTS_VISIT, VITAL_SIGNS, CHARTEVENTS, MEDICAL_ORDER, MEDICAL_
RECORD, NURSING_
RECORD, LAB_TEST_MASTER, LAB_RESULT, MEDICAL_EXAMINATION, EMG_INOUT_
RECORD) that containing different kinds of
patients' information. Conclusions The setup of high quality
emergency databases lay solid ground for scientific researches based on data. The model of constructing
Emergency Rescue Database could be the reference for other medical institutions to build multiple-
diseases databases.
