Abstrakt		Most of the hospitals in the USA and Puerto Rico keep their patient medical records in paper form. Most of the information that constitutes a patient record is entered by nurses by means of documentation forms. This documentation process takes a significant amount of the nurses time, thus, reducing the time devoted to direct patient care. In this paper we describe the development of a prototype of a computer-based patient record (CPR) system that can improve the quality of nursing care. The improvement in nursing care will be accomplished by providing mechanisms for documentation which reduce human error and the time required to accomplish it, thus, providing more time for direct patient care. The design of the system is based on the principles of human-computer interation and usability engineering (3).
