ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION CONTAINS, IN ADDITION TO HISTORICAL INFORMATION, 
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS.  THE COMPANY'S ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER 
SIGNIFICANTLY FROM THE RESULTS DISCUSSED IN THE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS.  
FACTORS THAT COULD CAUSE OR CONTRIBUTE TO SUCH DIFFERENCES INCLUDE, BUT ARE 
NOT LIMITED TO, THOSE DISCUSSED BELOW AND IN THE COMPANY'S FISCAL 1996 ANNUAL 
REPORT ON FORM 10-K.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Sales for the first quarter of fiscal 1997 were $5,152,000, a decrease of 
$132,000 or 2.5% compared to sales for the first quarter of the previous 
year.  The slight decrease in sales was due to the timing of sales orders.  
Orders expected in June 1996 were received in July 1996.

The gross margin decreased from 30% in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 to 
27% in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 due to a combination of the decrease 
in sales discussed above and overtime incurred for rework of certain products 
and to increase the level of inventory.

General and administrative expenses of $521,000 for the first quarter of 
fiscal 1997 decreased 6.4% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 1996 
primarily due to the elimination in the second quarter of fiscal 1996 of the 
management fee charged by Scherer Healthcare of approximately $20,000 per 
month and a decrease in legal fees due to the settlement of several pieces of 
litigation in fiscal 1996.

Interest expense increased 12.6% in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 compared 
to the same quarter in the prior fiscal year due to the accrual of interest 
expense to the Internal Revenue Service for settlements reached in fiscal 
1996.  During fiscal 1996, the Company sold its 10% investment in Seabrook 
Medical Systems, Inc. for a $200,000 gain.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

OPERATING ACTIVITIES:  Cash used in operations was $609,000 for the first 
quarter of fiscal 1997.  In the first quarter, inventories increased 
approximately $225,000 due to the Company's commitment to stocking inventory 
for improved customer service.  Also, in May 1996, the Company paid $170,000 
to settle a lawsuit with an insurance company.  Receivables and payables both 
declined in the first quarter due to normal seasonal selling patterns.

FINANCING ACTIVITIES:  During fiscal 1996, the Company and Scherer Capital, 
LLC. signed a loan agreement under which the Company may borrow up to 
$1,500,000 at 1-1/2% over prime, secured by inventory and equipment.  At June 
29, 1996, there is $800,000 of borrowing capacity available to the Company.  
On March 29, 1996, Scherer Capital purchased $1,000,000 of common stock of 
the Company at a rate of $0.485 per share.

The Company has obtained a three-year revolving line of credit commitment 
from Norwest Business Credit., Inc. ("Norwest") secured by receivables with 
an interest rate of 2.25% over Norwest's prime rate.  The maximum line of 
credit to be extended is 80% of eligible accounts receivable or $2,000,000, 
whichever is less.

Management of the Company believes that it can fund its current operating 
levels and capital expenditures from the funds from the sale of common stock 
in March 1996 and from available borrowings under the loan agreement with 
Scherer Capital and the committed line of credit.  To the extent that Fiscal 
1997 operations and borrowings are not sufficient to support anticipated 
capital expenditures, the Company's planned investment in capital projects will
be reduced.
