III Introduction The Hospital Literature Index is the primary guide to literature on hospital and other health care facility administration, including multi- institutional systems, health planning, and the administrative aspects of health care delivery. The Index is prepared by staff of the American Hospital Association Resource Center.* The Index, which has been published continually by the Association since 1945, is issued quarterly, with the last quarterly integrated into an annual hardbound cumulation. Beginning with this volume, the Index has been reformatted to enhance its usefulness to users and highlight its special features. Since 1978, the American Hospital Association and the National Library of Medicine (NLM) have cooperated to produce the Index from NLM’s bibliographic file, the Health Planning and Administra- tion database. This joint venture, using the capabilities of NLM’s Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System (MEDLARS®), has allowed for expanded journal coverage and resulted in additional citations. The AHA gratefully acknowledges the assistance of NLM’s staff. Coverage The Hospital Literature Index covers the organization and administra- tion, economics, laws and regulations, and policy and planning of health care delivery. Special emphasis is given to the theory of health care systems in general; health care in industrialized countries, primarily the United States; and provision of health care both inside and outside of health care facilities. Because of its comprehensive focus on health care administration issues, the Index does not include articles on clinical medicine and the clinical aspects of patient care. The citations in the Hospital Literature Index cover the delivery of health care in the following types of facilities: * The AHA Resource Center includes the Library of the American Hospital Association, Asa S. Bacon Memorial; the Center for Hospital and Healthcare Administration History; and the Hospital Literature Service.

VI The AHA Resource Center Established in 1920 as the Hospital Library and Service Bureau, the AHA Resource Center today holds the nation’s foremost collection of current and historical hospital and health services administration literature. By following its written collection development policy, the Resource Center has developed a health administration collection of over 43,000 volumes and 1,000 current periodical subscriptions. The services provided by the AHA Resource Center include factual information and referral, information and data retrieval, and document delivery. Factual information and referral services are provided to AHA members and others with a need for information. The information and data retrieval service offers in-depth research assistance, data retrieval, and project support on a fee basis. The document delivery service makes the AHA Resource Center’s collections available to both members and nonmembers of the Association on a differential fee basis. Requests are accepted by telephone, mail, and through selected electronic document order systems. The Center for Hospital and Healthcare Administration History, jointly sponsored by the American Hospital Association Resource Center and the American College of Healthcare Executives, concen- trates on the historical aspects of health services administration. The Center’s collections include a historical collection of published materials of special historical value; the Hospital Administration Oral History Collection, Lewis E. Weeks series, featuring transcribed interviews with noted individuals; an archival collection of unpub- lished papers and memorabilia of significance to the field; and a collection of historical photographs. The Hospital Literature Service provides products for the broad-based dissemination of information utilizing current technologies and drawing upon the strength of the AHA Resource Center’s unique collections. The Health Planning and Administration database is an online bibliographic file containing more than 400,000 citations to VII literature about health care planning, organization, financing, manage- ment, manpower, and related subjects. The database is available online through BRS®, DIALOG®, and MEDLARS®.

Clinical Protocols Precise and detailed plans for the study of a medical or biomedical problem or plans for a regimen of therapy. Consensus Development Conferences Presentations of summary statements representing the majority agreement of physicians, scientists, and other professionals convening for the purpose of reaching a consensus—often with findings and recommendations—on a subject of interest. Diagnostic Imaging Any visual display of structural or functional patterns of organs or tissues for diagnostic evaluation, includes measuring physiologic and metabolic responses to physical and chemical stimuli, as well as ultramicroscopy. Durable Medical Equipment Devices that are very resistant to wear and may be used over a long period of time; includes items such as wheelchairs, hospital beds, artificial limbs, etc. Hazardous Waste Waste products that upon release into the atmosphere, water, or soil, cause health risks to humans or animals through skin contact, inhalation, or injection. Hazardous waste sites are included here. Independent Practice Association Organization of private practice, primary care physicians who control all care. Laboratories, Hospital Hospital facilities equipped to carry out investigative procedures. Magnetic Resonance Imaging Non-invasive method of demonstrating internal anatomy based on the principle that certain nuclei in a strong magnetic field absorb pulses of radiofrequency energy and emit them as radiowaves, which can be reconstructed into computerized images, includes proton spin tomographic technics. Managed Care Programs Coordination of activities of different health providers in a variety of settings, such as Health Maintenance Organizations and Preferred Provider Organizations. The inducement of this program is economic, providing improved health services for reduced payment. Medical Imaging see Diagnostic Imaging Mentors Senior professionals who provide guidance, direction, and support to those persons desirous of improvement in academic positions, administrative positions, or other career development situations.
