H P Westerhof, and P C Sollet, and J H van Bemmel

A lesson on computerized patient history-taking is described of a block-course in medical informatics, offered to medical students during their clinical training. The lesson stresses the importance of careful observation during the patient interview and the storage of original data without human interpretation. The lesson has been evaluated during 1 academic year and errors in different categories of medical data were determined: data exactly given by the patient, data hidden in the interview, and data not given by the patient. Mean errors in these types of data appeared to be 21, 47, and 58%, respectively.
