N2 - BACKGROUND: Our aim was to design and develop a computer database system for head and neck cancer patients for clinical and scientific use. METHODS: A relational database based on Filemaker Pro 6.0 was developed and integrated into our local network. Its precise and easy to handle interface should allow a quick overview of the patient's oncological data. An automatically generated letter was integrated to enhance patient care. For evaluation purposes, statistical analysis functions were incorporated. RESULTS: Over a 7 month period, about 300 patient records were available through the local network. The automated letter function and the well organized display resulted in more efficient patient care. Additionally, the quality of the information presented to referring physicians increased. Statistical analysis provided by the database was reliable and easy to export. CONCLUSIONS: We developed an oncology database for clinical and scientific use and integrated it into our patient documentation system. The combination of clinical and scientific features proved to be very effective in daily patient care routine and research.
