This paper evaluates the several methods by which hospital formularies may be printed and concludes that, overall, electronic data processing appears to be the best method. The steps in preparation of a hospital formulary by EDP, including input, card layout, printout, information storage and revision, are discussed. The authors emphasize that hospital EDP facilities are not mandatory for the program and that the services of a commercial firm may be utilized. It is recommended that hospital pharmacists adopt the format of an existing hospital formulary printed by EDP technics by purchasing a set of cards from another hospital. The set should include all drug dosage form cards, cross-reference cards and program decks for printing the formulary. Cards could be deleted and new cards keypunched as necessary. The authors further recommend that the AMERICAN SOCIETY OF HOSPITAL PHARMACISTS provide such a service to hospitals. Other benefits, relating to inventory control, purchasing, patient billing, drug surveillance and adverse drug reaction reporting, may accrue from EDP application to the hospital formulary.

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are responsible for more deaths than any other cause, with coronary heart disease and stroke accounting for two-thirds of those deaths. Morbidity and mortality due to CVD are largely preventable, through either primary prevention of disease or secondary prevention of cardiac events. Monitoring cardiac status in healthy and diseased cardiovascular systems has the potential to dramatically reduce cardiac illness and injury. Smart technology in concert with mobile health platforms is creating an environment where timely prevention of and response to cardiac events are becoming a reality.
