ABSTRACT:
The system includes a multi-track tape player with a set of head phones which are connected to the audio output of the player and are located in a history-taking booth for use by a patient. A two-track tape is mounted in the tape player and includes a first track having a plurality of questions recorded thereon in a predetermined sequence and a second track having a plurality of code signals recorded thereon, each code signal identifying a particular question recorded on the first track. A patient viewing and response device is located in the booth and includes a keyboard response panel and scale models of the human body adapted to depict typical pain or discomfort patterns. The patient response device is selectively operable by a patient for giving one of several predetermined answers to each question audibly presented to the patient. The device and the player are connected to a computer which controls the audio presentation of the successive questions relative to the answers given to previous questions. A printer is connected to the computer for providing a printed read-out of the questions and answers. The system is activated by the patient or an operator.
