%0 Journal Article %T MAPPING AND ANALYSIS OF CONCEPTS OF NEPHROPATHY PATIENT RECORD AIMING A CATEGORIZATION AND REPRESENTATION OF INFORMATION %A Jardel M¨¢rcio Lima Soares %J Biblionline %D 2010 %I Universidade Federal da Para¨ªba %X The Institutionalization of Scientific Medicinein the fifth century a. C by Hippocrates of Cos,brought the need to register in other media - inaddition to biological memory - the historicalcontext of the patient (anamnesis) and thedisease course and thus prescribe the possibletherapeutic approaches to be adopted. Bornthere, the patient record, document consists ofa set of verbal texts (narratives and reports)and nonverbal (x-rays, echos etc..) Regardingthe ill person. By 1907, notes were made in asingle document, in chronological order ofregistration, which hampered access toinformation when the return of a particularpatient for continuity of care, noting, therefore,the need to individualize the charts. Inresearch done to the mapping and analysis ofthe concepts adopted in nephropathic patientsrecords of the university hospital (HUWC),Federal University of Cear¨¢ (UFC) in order topropose a categorization based on theterminology of specialized, aiming at buildinga taxonomic tree so that mirrors theconceptual representation of domainknowledge and thus contribute to a recovery ofquality information. 50 records are digitized bymapping the concepts related to kidneydiseases, inserting them into the Prot¨¦g¨¦software, according to the disease categoriesidentified in the charts, with its many subclustersand hierarchical concepts related to it.Results show the representation of recordedknowledge in these documents, therefore, mayoffer clues indicators that could contribute tothe access and retrieval of information. %K Medical records of the patient %K Categorization %K Taxonomy %U http://periodicos.ufpb.br/ojs2/index.php/biblio/article/viewFile/9632/5239
