The use of clinical information systems to control cost as well as to improve care.

Clinical resources represent the major items of expense in hospital care. These resources are under the primary control of physicians. For a number of reasons it is difficult to manage these resources in the sense of ensuring their prudent use under all circumstances. Relevant clinical information brought to bear at the time and place of the decisions which allocate these resources can encourage prudent use directly (through reduction in waste) and indirectly (through improving the quality of care).

Diagnostic difficulties encountered in the myasthenic syndrome sometimes associated with carcinoma.

Six patients with the physiological features of the myasthenic syndrome associated with carcinoma are presented. The clinical features encountered in this group, including age, mode of onset, and duration of symptom indicate that it may escape detection owing to its resemblance to other neuromuscular disorders. Conventional concentric needle electromyography may lead to the disorder being confused with a myopathy. The association with carcinoma is by no means constant. Clinical and physiological improvement with guanidine is described in each case.
