Nursing documentation for trauma resuscitation has improved significantly at our level I trauma center because of the introduction of our Emergency Nurse Documentation Improvement Tool (END-IT). The END-IT system was implemented as a performance improvement model and utilizes existing computer software. It provides quick computerized feedback to professional nurses when documentation of trauma ...

Abs t r ac t . We describe lpdoc, a tool which generates documentation manuals automatically from one or more logic program source files, written in Ciao, ISO-Prolog, and other (C)LP languages. It is particularly useful for documenting library modules, for which it automatically generates a rich description of the module interface. However, it can also be used quite successfully to document ful...

BACKGROUND The reprocessing of medical endoscopes is carried out using automatic cleaning and disinfection machines. The documentation and archiving of records of properly conducted reprocessing procedures is the last and increasingly important part of the reprocessing cycle for flexible endoscopes. METHODS This report describes a new computer program designed to monitor and document the auto...

BACKGROUND This study was undertaken to examine the current level of operations and management education within US-based Emergency Medicine Residency programs. METHODS Residency program directors at all US-based Emergency Medicine Residency programs were anonymously surveyed via a web-based instrument. Participants indicated their levels of residency education dedicated to documentation, bill...

BACKGROUND A national clinical practice guideline for pediatric palliative care was published in 2013. So far there are only few reports available on whether an educational program fosters compliance with such a guideline implementation. We aimed to test the effect of the education program on actual compliance as well as documentation of compliance to the guideline. METHODS We performed a pro...

A documentation of a C++ implementation of ACS2, the current state-of-the-art of the anticipatory learning classiier system ACS, is provided. The documentation explains how to get started with the code. A detailed overview of the structure of the code and of all possible parameter manipulations are given. Input and Output interfaces are revealed. Finally, the documentation exhibits how to run A...

A simple tool called PD system is described and offered for general use that allows one to integrate programs and their documentation in ASCII files. Such a program with documentation file (PD file) consists of alternating documentation and program sections. PD files can be compiled directly; for a compiler, documentation sections are just commentaries to be ignored. On the other hand, the PD s...

The main goal with this paper is to motivate and coin a variation of literate programming which we call elucidative programming. Elucidative programming is oriented towards program explanation with the purpose of throwing lights on important and complex program relationships. Since proposed by Knuth in 1984, literate programming has been one of the most viable approaches to a radical improvemen...
