Rationing health care: the choice before us.

Rapid technological advances and upward pressure on wages of hospital personnel are leading to a steady increase in health care spending that is absorbing an ever-larger fraction of gross national product. Eliminating inefficiencies in the system can provide brief fiscal relief, but rationing of beneficial services, even to the well-insured, offers the only prospect for sustained reduction in the growth of health care spending. The United States, which has negligible direct experience with rationing, can learn about choices it will face from the experience of Great Britain where health care has been rationed explicitly for many years.

An early rim sign in neonatal adrenal hemorrhage.

Neonatal adrenal hemorrhage can usually be diagnosed on excretory urography without resorting to surgical exploration or invasive diagnostic procedures. In the typical case an avascular mass is seen between the liver and kidney. A case is presented in which a vascular rim surrounded the avascular mass, giving an appearance similar to that of an obstructed upper pole renal duplication. This early vascular rim, not as well known as the calcified rim which develops days to weeks after the acute hemorrhage, is probably created by compression and displacement of adrenal tissue by the central hemorrhage.
