Field verification methodology using bar coding to record data.

Abstract

Bar codes, the ubiquitous labels on consumer products, can be used to record patient care data. Bar code entry offers precise, time-stamped, data records. Bar code readers, coupled with a personal computer, can produce an electronic medical record as well as analyze data trends.

Pain medicine education among American neurologists: a need for improvement.

To assess pain medicine education, surveys were mailed to practicing neurologists (PNs) and residency program directors (PDs). Thirty percent of PNs felt adequately trained to diagnose and 20% to treat pain disorders. PNs stated that more pain education is needed for resident training (89%) and for PNs (91%). PDs ranked the importance of a pain subspecialty seventh out of eight subspecialties; only 29% reported having a neurology pain specialist on the faculty. These data strongly suggest a need to improve the pain medicine education of neurologists.
