体格检查是医院经常性的工作之一。对体检结果进行统计学处理往往可以提供有关疾病和年龄、职业、地域等诸因素的相互关系的资料,具有研究价值。但是当受检人数超过500人,而且每人检查的项目又较多时,这种统计处理变得非常繁复而极易出错。这时,一般不宜再沿用人工处理,而应该采用电子计算机处理。我院对广州地区知识分子集中的有色冶金研究院等十六个单位共1282例中年和个别老年 Physical examination is one of the hospital’s regular jobs. The statistical treatment of physical examination results can often provide information on the correlation of various factors such as disease and age, occupation, and region, and has research value. However, when the number of people inspected exceeds 500 and each person checks more items, the statistical processing becomes very complicated and error-prone. At this time, it is generally not appropriate to use manual processing, but it should be handled by a computer. Our institute has a total of 1282 middle-aged and individual elderly people in 16 units including non-ferrous metallurgical research institutes with concentrated intellectuals in Guangzhou.
