GOMEZ MARTINEZ, Freddy; RUIZ PIEDRA, Alina María  y  GONZALEZ OCHOA, Edilberto. Web data base system for the advisement of the provincial commissions of tuberculosis. RCIM [online]. 2013, vol.5, n.2, pp. 143-153. ISSN 1684-1859.

Even though incidence of tuberculosis has had a favourable trend during the last years in our country, there has been an increase in the work at the provincial tuberculosis committees because cases assessed, diagnosis criteria and actions to be taken with patients are more and more diverse and complex. To facilitate the committees' work, a web-based management system was created; this is specifically a database to assess diagnosis and actions to be taken. This system makes accessible for all specialists and experts from all committees nationwide, the information of cases they have examined, in a simple, immediate, reliable and consistent way, making possible the automatic generation of forms to record the information on examined patients and of queries conducted by experts. This system will make possible to reduce the time needed to get an accurate diagnosis and from the financial point of view to cut costs from complementary tests for patients and through the prompt reinsertion of patients to their working and social lives. The system will also be a teaching resource since it will allow specialists to get a feedback from the information entered in the system by experts.
