One nurse's experience with technology.

This article examines the positive and negative aspects of working with a documentation and information management system from the unique perspective of a practicing home care nurse who was also a student. Aspects of the nightingale tracker technology that are comparable with others used in home care, experiences of field testing, and the nurse's observations can help home care nurses see how this technology can benefit their practice.

Studies of intracellular distribution of acid phosphatase 5 in the spleen cells of leukemic reticuloendotheliosis by isopycnic gradient centrifugation.

A fresh spleen sample obtained from a patient with leukemic reticuloendotheliosis was homogenized and subjected to centrifugation on a sucrose density gradient. A major portion of acid phosphatase band 5 was observed in the lysosome, confirming that the elevated phosphatase activity in the neoplastic spleen is a lysosomal enzyme. However, a significant amount of brand 5 was also observed in the microsome. The microsomal and lysosomal enzymes have different affinity to CM-cellulose. The relationship between lysosomal and microsomal enzymes has not been established.

A comparison of teaching strategies for integrating information technology into clinical nursing education.

As health care becomes more information-intensive and diverse, there is a need to integrate information technology (IT) into clinical education. Little is known, however, about how to design instructional strategies for integrating information technology into clinical nursing education. This article outlines the instructional strategies used by faculty in five nursing programs who taught students to use a point-of-care information technology system. The article also reports students' computer acceptance and summarizes IT clinical teaching recommendations.
