Daniel J.

Priscu, a public relations man, in liaison with Telserv, said that this type of equipment now in use at Ashland Hospital will be made, available to other state hospitals. The need is prompted by the increase of ECG's, taken each year. "The rate of ECG's last month alone reached 550, and about 15 million are performed each year with interpretations by carciologists, "Priscu said. "Simplicity of the program is effected in that'the doctor has only to check the positives and in using a computerized system you can cut down on the time at the input of reading five-fold to seven-fold. "The federal government is considering passage of a bill to fund health maintenance organizations and clinical groups which means billions of dollars purportedly going into this.

People already providing mass health care are going to be in a better position to get that kind of support than others who shy away from using computer mass screen methods. "Rex Roberts, hospital administrator, deserves a great deal of credit for having the foresight of looking into the future. He knows what he wants at this hospital for the future and he is helping to move it along to serve the community. He invited Dr. Caceres to the hospital to provide the medical staff with an orientation on the applications of computer mass screen methods, the first seminar of this type to be given by Dr.

Caceres. "The ultimate is to have a data bank where in areas that a health maintenance organization is in existence, access to information of each patient will be readily available. Hospital and patients' illness records and patients images medically would be processed by a computer into memory bank for immediate retrieval. The use of this bank of informatibn would also allow comparative studies of diseases and treatment."

I graphy equipment that was equipment that was developed, on rjis principles, by Telserv, of Rockville, and is presently in use at the hospital.

In addition to being the language of the i i a 1 transmission: is also a a a 1 he transmission of all biomedical data.

Automated EC processing' systems that utilize analog transmission are not as efficient in the transmission jof ECG's and analog programming cannot be used for transmission of many other mass screening programs. In the of this equipment which adapts Dr, Caceres' principles, the bio- medical terminal' takes- signals from the patient, converts them immediately, and are then transmitted. The problem of garbled transmission "is completely 1 avoided in the use of a digital computer as compared to analog and eliminates redoing an ECG.
