RESUMO
In summary, many options are available to hospitals in utilizing computers to study quality of care. One particular approach is not recommended; rather, each hospital is encouraged to investigate the available alternatives, discuss the relative merits of each, and implement the most cost-effective system possible.

Two cases of acute, fatal, hepatitis occurred in young, striped skunks (Mephitis mephitis) trapped in southern Ontario. Histologically, lesions in the liver were similar to infectious canine hepatitis. A virus was isolated which produced large intranuclear inclusions in dog kidney cell cultures. These inclusions were Feulgen-positive and fluoresced green with acridine orange stain. The skunk hepatitis isolate was identified as the virus of infectious canine hepatitis by virus neutralization tests.
