A medical information management system records patient's medical information onto an optical card (5) for management purposes. For each patient, any suitable information selected from among character, image and sound information is recorded onto the optical card (5) as medical information corresponding to the patient's morbid state. A read section (3, 4) optically reads out the medical information written on the optical card. A display section (23) visually presents the character and image information contained in the medical information that is read out by the read section. A reproduction section (13) audibly reproduces the sound information contained in the medical information that is also read out by the read section. Thus, a doctor can easily acquire or diagnose the patient's morbid state by listening to the patient's characteristic cardiac sounds, cardiac murmurs and breathing sounds, particularly to the cardiac murmurs if the patient has some circulatory disease. By also displaying the sound information as a sound waveform diagram at the same time, more accurate acquisition of the morbid state can be achieved. <IMAGE> |
