Physician Patient

Use of a computer for processing prescriptions in the outpatient pharmacy at Los Angeles County Hospital is described. The computer stores data related to the prescribing physician, patient, and clinic visited, drug prescribed and quantity, etc. Labels are typed automatically, with numerous appropriate instructions to patient, such as, “Store in refrigerator.” Accuracy of labels is verified by pharmacist. Use of IBM 2260 Cathode Ray Tube Display Station, using an IBM 360 model 30 and a remote printer, is described. Detailed procedure of operation is presented. Paper includes Flowchart and Systems Chart which form the basis of the system, and 15 other illustrations.

Vdt Operators

This study investigated the display station physical adjustments preferred by a sample of visual display terminal (VDT) operators preselected to span the 5th, 50th, and 95th percentiles in physical stature with respect to United States or Japanese anthropometric surveys. Thirty-seven operators were taken individually through a step-by-step sequence to determine their preferred adjustments of seat height, keyboard height and slope angle, and CRT height and tilt angle. Each operator then performed a brief transcription task. Measurements corresponding to the final preferred height and angle adjustments do not agree with some currently evolving German ergonomic display station requirements. In addition, intermeasure correlations strongly suggest that “flat” (low slope angle) keyboards are inappropriate for operators who select low seat heights and are short in stature.
