Abstract
The physician administering digitalis makes use of the full richness of the clinical setting to form his/her impressions and decide on a therapeutic program. The weakness of existing programs which formulate digitalis dosage regimens lies in their inability to use all of the clinical data available-both quantitative. and qualitative. This report describes the construction of a computer system which formulates digitalis dosage regimens and which adjusts this regimen by interpreting the patient's response to the original dosage regimen.
