Streamlining birth certificate processing with technology.

To transform the birth certificate process, a total quality management approach was adopted by San Jose Medical Center. An innovative solution using technology resulted in dramatic gains in productivity. The case study summarizes the methodology used to achieve measurable performance improvement. This reengineering demonstration reveals the positive results achievable when the strengths of staff skills, environment, and procedures are maximized.

Cardiac registries--their place in healthcare.

The largest benefit of having a cardiac registry is quality. Everyone from patients, payers, physicians, and the public wants to know your quality...many hospitals are unprepared to answer these questions.

Microcomputer-based three-dimensional stereoscopic macromolecular graphics display.

Software which permits an IBM AT and two IBM Professional Graphics Displays to be used to display high-quality three-dimensional space-filling stereoscopic images of macromolecules is described. Stereo image pairs generated on two screens are visually fused using a simple mirror system to provide binocular depth perception. Images are colored to identify atomic type, residue type, charge or hydrophobicity according to user-specified codes and can be rotated and rescaled. Macromolecules containing over 16,000 atoms can be rapidly drawn using Brookhaven Protein Data Bank or user-supplied coordinates.
