Abstract: The advent of the supercomputer and its capabilities for dealing with terabyte-sized data bases has provided a unique opportunity for nursing sciences to enhance and add to its theories. An interdisciplinary team has formed at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV), to provide new tools and methodologies for analyzing large-scale data bases. Their first project is a study of infant mortality. The strategy and goals for this project are presented, along with an assessment of the present state of health care data base analysis.
