There exists an Object oriented Causal Event Space (OCES), which describes in a dynamical way most medical actions in hospital environments. This space was derived from the interaction of many computer programs used for patient treatment in intensive care units. Fortunately the computer programs of OCES are used in several clinics even for decision support. The mathematical model of this computer-based concept has grown up from the beginning and it gets richer structure by the fact that OCES is able to lear n further medical methods. The main mathematical concepts in OCES are: Topological manifolds, weak topologies, fixing topologies by one-dimensional subspaces, local causal spaces, almost continuous mappings.
