A valuable tool for teaching students in medicine,
nurisng, and laboratory technician fields. Instructors can customize shadowfiles for use
in the classroom.
What can be done with the infobase:
- Annotate and modify any portion of the entire infobase,
including ANY of the method procedures or forms, to conform to the exact needs of your
laboratory and institution. Multiple users can make their own notes directly on the
infobase and save them as personal shadow files.
- Sort and print modified forms.
- Instantly access all parts of the infobase via
hypertext links.
- Rapidly retrieve specific information from the infobase
using the sophisticated FolioViews™ search
engine.
