Audiovisual materials: a survey of bibliographic controls in distributors' catalogs.

The current pattern of bibliographic control in audio-visual distributors' catalogs is described. Eight bibliographic control elements are defined, and the criteria for evaluating the occurrence of these elements in sixty-four sample catalogs are specified. When the distributors are grouped according to category, such as educational or commercial, the pattern of bibliographic control has three distinct clusters of elements. When the distributors are grouped by the number of titles handled, there is no clear pattern. The implications of these patterns are discussed in terms of practical library reference services. A solution to the problem of bibliographic control of health science audiovisual materials is proposed.

Infrared ear thermometry.

Many hospitals are considering using infrared (IR) ear thermometers (also called tympanic membrane thermometers) as an alternative to traditional temperature-measurement devices. IR technology allows users to quickly and noninvasively measure body temperature by inserting a directional probe into the ear canal. For infection control, ear thermometers offer the advantages of not contacting mucous membranes and eliminating the need for special handling procedures. For use on unconscious patients or those who are otherwise unwilling or unable to cooperate with traditional techniques, IR ear thermometers offer a more comfortable and less stressful method of temperature taking for both patients and nurses, especially where rectal temperatures are used. The recent entry into this market by major companies and distributors and the release of several new IR ear thermometers have helped to further stimulate interest in this technology. However, a complete transition to IR ear thermometers throughout the hospital may not be necessary and should be made only after these devices have been successfully used in selected clinical locations, such as emergency departments, critical care areas, recovery areas, and labor and delivery rooms. Clinical users must be familiar with the technique needed for temperature measurement with these instruments and understand the differences between temperatures taken in the ear canal and those obtained from traditional sites. In the following article, we first present and overview of clinical thermometry, describing traditional temperature-measurement sites and devices. We then discuss the advantages and disadvantages of using the ear canal, including the tympanic membrane (TM), as a site for temperature measurement.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
