[The cito-laboratory information system CILIS].

: The cito-laboratory of a big hospital must be able to work a higher number of cito-analyzes economically and with a high degree of security and to send back the results as fast as possible to the demander. For that reason the simple employment of efficient analytical methods or tools is not sufficient. The cito-laboratory-information-system CILIS is able to support all the steps of work, which are necessary to workout cyto-results and to send them back to the demander. It is also able to relieve the nurses as well as the MTLA from writing and recording. CILIS is based on the computer A 5120. It is usable in other comparable institutions and with certain restrictions to further development or enlargement. In our hospital the system has been working since november 1986 during the regular shift and the shift from 2 pm till 10 pm and partly on working days from 10 pm to 7 am and respectively at the weekend. Since that time it has been approved excellently.
