Staff turnover: occasional friend, frequent foe, and continuing frustration.

Turnover appears to be a relatively simple concept. However, considerable confusion results when discussing turnover because of differences in how it is defined--what is counted, how it is counted, and how the rate of turnover is expressed. Turnover is also costly, although not enough attention is paid to turnover's cost because so much of it is indirect and thus not readily visible. There are a variety of causes of turnover, some which can be corrected and some which cannot be avoided. Reducing or otherwise controlling turnover requires continuing management attention to its causes and constant recognition of what can and should be controlled and what cannot be controlled. Ongoing attention to turnover is an essential part of the department manager's role.

Gene Therapy for Restenosis: Progress or Frustration?

No systemic pharmacological treatment has been shown to convincingly reduce the incidence of restenosis after angioplasty in patients. The lack of success of many pharmaceutical agents in reducing restenosis rates post-angioplasty and following stent-implementation shown in dozens of clinical trials has encouraged the development of new technological approaches as treatment. Gene therapy has the potential to prevent some of the sequelae after arterial injury, particularly cell proliferation. Mechanical methods of preventing restenosis, such as sophisticated local drug delivery strategies and biodegradable stents using new materials in combination with gene therapy, may be of use to maximize safety and efficiency.
