Does alternative therapy work for mesothelioma
•
0 likes•47 views
Mesothelioma is one form of cancer that manifests in old age among people that have had chronic exposures to asbestos particles in their younger ages. The big problem with mesothelioma is the long latency period in which case the patient will not be aware that there is something terrible going on within their bodies.

The document discusses how health care reform and the Affordable Care Act (ACA) rely on health information technology (HIT) and electronic medical records. It outlines the goals of the ACA to make affordable insurance available to more people and support innovative care delivery methods. HIT helps track standardization of insurance coverage and facilitates telehealth. Chief knowledge officers and HIPAA compliance officers ensure proper documentation and privacy of patient information. Overall, HIT plays a key role in implementing the ACA and improving quality of care.
Types of lung cancer
In 2013, more than 228,000 Americans will be diagnosed with lung cancer. The most common types are named for how the lung cancer cells look under a microscope they are small call and non-small cell lung cancer:

1) Patients want more involvement in treatment decisions and to feel that doctors provide information on options and consider their preferences.
2) Variation exists in treatment approaches and outcomes across different regions of the UK, and identifying unwarranted variations is important for improving care quality.
3) Shared decision making requires clinicians and patients to discuss experiences of illness, social circumstances, risk attitudes, values, preferences, diagnoses, prognoses, and treatment options to make informed healthcare choices.

This document discusses the importance of good data and performance measurement in improving healthcare quality, outcomes, and affordability. It notes that while process measures for diabetes care are high, outcomes are still lacking. Healthcare spending is growing much faster than wages or inflation, demonstrating an economic imperative to address costs. The document then outlines components of an alternative contract model between physicians and hospitals that ties payment to quality performance and cost control goals like global budgets tied to inflation. It provides low back pain referrals as an example of using data analysis to improve practice patterns and reduce wasteful care.

The document discusses a quality improvement project aimed at improving diabetes management in an outpatient clinic. It notes that diabetes poses a major health burden in the US and that the clinic's diabetic patients are not meeting quality goals for HbA1c, LDL, and blood pressure. The project will involve educating residents, providing quarterly patient metrics reports, and one-on-one meetings with care managers. Two clinic groups will receive the intervention while two serve as controls. The project expects to see improved patient outcomes and provider satisfaction at minimal cost.
Chronic Heart Failure Study: Whitepaper
Telemonitoring services provided to chronic heart failure patients after hospital discharge reduced readmissions. An study of 83 patients found that those receiving daily remote monitoring of vital signs and symptoms through peripherals and nurse coaching were less likely to be readmitted and more likely to take medications than a control group. The monitoring involved daily transmission of biometric readings and symptom responses to nurses, who would contact patients if readings were abnormal or symptoms worsened to provide interventions. Patients receiving telemonitoring also reported better quality of life scores than the control group. The study concluded that telemonitoring is a promising strategy for reducing readmissions while improving medication compliance and patient quality of life.

Clinical engagement and telemedicine can improve patient care and outcomes by changing day-to-day clinical decisions. However, barriers like lack of time, competing demands, and disinterest must be overcome. Adopting a communication strategy that addresses both problems and benefits in a way clinicians understand, along with good clinical evidence and local champions, can help resolve clinical engagement.

Poster Presentation UT Austin
This document discusses challenges with patient matching in health information exchange. Accurately matching patient data between organizations is difficult due to issues like missing data and data entry errors. This can lead to problems like delayed care, safety issues, and costs. The authors propose that improving data quality, matching algorithms, and best practices could increase patient matching rates from an initial 10-15% to over 95%. Strong patient matching is needed for health information exchange to achieve its benefits.
(2) education policy quality of education(6) health literacy
This document presents a concept map that identifies three pathways by which medication non-compliance can be conceptualized from a social perspective. All three pathways begin with education policy and its impact. One pathway shows how low education quality can lead to low health literacy and difficulty following medication instructions. Another pathway shows how high dropout rates from underfunded schools can result in low-wage jobs without insurance, reducing ability to afford or access medication. A third pathway notes self-efficacy and unwanted side effects can influence the relationship between ability to comply with a medication regimen and actual compliance. The document concludes by outlining interventions that could help address medication non-compliance at various points in the concept map.
Dr. Victor Montori: "On careful and kind care for our complex patients"
This document discusses the complex care needs of patients with multiple chronic conditions. It notes that such patients often have high treatment burdens from multiple medications and self-care needs that can exceed their capacity. Guidelines and care are often focused on single diseases and do not consider patient context. The document calls for a focus on balancing patient workload from treatment with their capacity through strategies like prioritizing care, deprescribing unnecessary treatments, coaching, and connecting patients to community resources.
Concierge Telemedicine: Case Studies in Challenging Delivery model
1) The document discusses the potential for a subscription or concierge medicine model for wound care, obesity, and infectious disease treatment using telemedicine.
2) Two case studies are presented of patients who enrolled in a cash-only telemedicine program for obesity treatment and were successful in losing weight.
3) The author argues that a concierge model could remove barriers to better wound care outcomes by eliminating insurance constraints and focusing on prevention rather than sick care.
4) Future opportunities discussed include developing a concierge wound care model using telemedicine and apps to coordinate chronic disease management.

This document summarizes research on the effects of the Affordable Care Act's Medicaid expansion. It finds that the expansion led to 16.1 million more enrollees in Medicaid/CHIP, with about half due to newly eligible individuals and half from increased enrollment of previously eligible people. The expansion significantly reduced the uninsured rate for low-income adults and improved access to and affordability of care. Studies found expanded Medicaid improved quality of care, health outcomes, and prescription drug use. Private option plans had similar benefits as traditional Medicaid with few differences. The expansion also reduced uncompensated care costs for hospitals and had budgetary benefits for states. However, Medicaid expansion remains politically controversial, especially in non-expanding states inPatient Engagement and Empowerment: A Culture War Begins
This document outlines Dave deBronkart's journey from being diagnosed with cancer in 2007 to becoming a prominent advocate for patient engagement and empowerment. It discusses how he used online resources and connected with other patients online to research his condition, treatment options, and find doctors. This marked a transformation from a closed medical system to an open network where patients can access information and support from each other. The document argues that engaged, empowered patients will be an essential part of the healthcare system going forward to address the growing demographic of older patients. It suggests the concept of patient engagement is going through a paradigm shift as more recognize the importance of patient perspectives in care.

The document discusses barriers and facilitators to policymakers using research evidence in decision making. It finds that the primary facilitator is personal contact between researchers and policymakers, while the main barrier is the lack of such contact. It also lists other factors that can encourage or discourage the use of evidence in policy, and strategies for bridging the gap between researchers and policymakers such as jointly setting agendas and facilitating interaction.

This document summarizes research on improving diabetes care for veterans through better digital communication and addressing health literacy issues. It discusses the growing problem of diabetes, especially among veterans and those with low health literacy. Studies at a VA medical center found poor control of diabetes measures like HbA1c and high dropout rates from education programs. The document proposes using surveys to assess individual patients' and clinicians' attitudes and tailoring communication based on clustering analyses. The goal is to improve doctor-patient communication through content tailored to health literacy levels and attitudinal types.

Stay Ahead of the Game of Primary Medication Non
The Pharmacy Quality Alliance developed a metric called Primary Medication Non-Adherence to measure how often patients do not comply with medication regimens. This metric uses prescription claims data to calculate the Proportion of Days Covered by comparing the number of pills dispensed to the days the patient should be taking the medication. However, this metric cannot account for instances where patients do not fill their initial prescription, known as the "first fill factor". Research shows patient education by pharmacists can help reduce non-compliance by improving relationships and addressing barriers patients face.

Thyroid cancer rates are increasing rapidly in Canada. While survival rates are high, recurrence rates can be up to 20%. Effective long-term management is needed to monitor for recurrence but faces barriers like a lack of guidelines and coordination for primary care providers. New technologies like computerized clinical practice guidelines and decision aids have the potential to help provide personalized support to thyroid cancer survivors throughout their lifelong follow-up care.
Addressing this decade's primary challenge for medical training alguire
The document discusses the need for cost consciousness in medical training and practice. It identifies controlling healthcare costs as a primary challenge this decade. Current efforts are outlined to educate trainees and clinicians about high value care and reducing overuse of diagnostic tests. While competencies require awareness of costs, most residents report receiving little feedback or education on utilizing resources efficiently. The document calls for strengthening training programs to ensure cost-consciousness becomes a core value for physicians in practice.

1) The study measured patient beliefs about physician acceptance of gifts from pharmaceutical companies and how those beliefs relate to patient distrust in the healthcare system and trust in physicians.
2) It found that one-third of patients believed most doctors accept gifts, and over half believed their own doctor accepts gifts. These beliefs strongly correlated with high healthcare distrust and low physician trust.
3) Patients who believed doctors or their own doctor accept gifts were much more likely to have high healthcare distrust, according to multivariate analysis controlling for demographics. This suggests gifts may undermine trust in the system and physicians.Cancer Survivorship in Utah, Part 2

This document discusses the benefits of health promotion strategies and population health management. It shows that for every $1 invested in health promotion, companies see financial returns ranging from $1.42 to $6.50. Implementing wellness programs can lower annual healthcare costs. Population health management uses risk stratification and predictive modeling to implement primary prevention programs for low-risk individuals, and more intensive interventions like health coaching and disease management for high-risk populations. This integrated approach aims to improve outcomes and reduce costs across the health continuum.
The impact of nutrition on cancer
We all need food to survive. The need for a proper and adequate nutrition is even more pressing for cancer victims. When the news of cancer is broken to victims, they often begin to emaciate because of psychological distress. The excessive loss of weight has been known to have a negative impact on their prognosis.

Mesothelioma therapies that are body based provide relief
Mesothelioma does not present symptoms in the latency stage. The absence of symptoms is the major reason for its late diagnosis. The diagnosis of mesothelioma usually occurs at the later part of the disease when the cancer must have been largely developed. When the symptoms begin to come, they are often too much to handle for any patient.

The Mesothelioma Center's March 2015 Support Group - Complementary and Altern...The Mesothelioma Center at Asbestos.com
There are a variety of reasons mesothelioma patients and their loved ones seek information about Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) therapies. Some lack faith in our current medical system or Western medicine in general. Others prefer to avoid the negative reactions or long-term effects of traditional cancer treatments such as surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy. We welcome Dr. Snehal Smart as the guest speaker to discuss these topics in our March support group. For more information on this topic, visit us at www.asbestos.comCoping with mesothelioma treatment
The patients who are newly diagnosed with mesothelioma are often overwhelmed by myriads of thoughts and feelings. They feel their days are running short; they lose the purpose of living and this creates a huge problem for them in coping with the often rigorous treatment process. Research has shown that mesothelioma diagnosis makes people feel vulnerable and threatened.
Precision Medicine: Opportunities and Challenges for Clinical Trials
The momentum and muscle behind "finding the right drug for the right patient at the right dose" has further escalated with President Barack Obama’s announcement of a $215 million dollar Precision Medicine Initiative earlier this year. In this webinar, Dr. Frank Smith will explore advances in precision medicine and how it is affecting clinical research. As a pediatric hematologist/oncologist, he will use his extensive clinical and research background as a backdrop for the discussion.
Topics will include:
The evolution of "personalized medicine" to "precision medicine"
How state-of-the-art molecular biology is creating new diagnostic and prognostic strategies
How these new strategies are helping inform the design of clinical trials
Case study: How precision medicine is improving clinical trials in hematology and oncology

Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) in Psychiatry
The revolution and re-conceptualization of health and healing that has occurred in the Western health care system in the last 20 years has given opportunity for a paradigmatic shift in health care education, research, and practice. More than one hundred years ago, the American health care system was dominated by the biomedical worldview. Today, this is no longer true. Support for complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), also called natural, alternative, and complementary (NAC) therapies, and holistic practices, has never been greater than at the present time.
CAM is a form of integrative care. Integrative care places the client at the center of care, focuses on prevention and wellness, and attends to the client’s physical, mental, and spiritual needs (Institute of Medicine [IOM], 2009). Integrative care is directed at healing and considers the whole person (mind, body, and spirit), along with the lifestyle of the person. Holism is described as involving (l) the identification of the interrelationships of the bio-psychosocial-spiritual dimensions of the person, recognizing that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts, and (2) understanding of the individual as a unitary whole in mutual process with the environment (American Holistic Nurses Association [AHNA], 2004). Because of growing interest in and use of holism and CAM in the United States, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) established the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) in 1998. The NCCAM supports fair and scientific evaluation of integrative therapies and dissemination of information that allows health care providers to make good choices regarding the safety and appropriateness of CAM. The holistic natural, alternative, and complementary (NAC) therapies that are commonly used today in the United States include:
· Acupuncture
· Ayurveda
· Biofeedback
· Chiropractic manipulation
· Diet-based therapies
· Deep-breathing exercises
· Energy healing therapy/Reiki
· Exercise therapy
· Guided imagery
· Hypnosis
· Massage
· Meditation
· Herbal therapy
· Aromatherapy
· Reflexology
· Yoga
· Prayer and spiritual practices
Although research on the efficacy of CAM is increasing, studies in the field are minimal when compared to those of conventional medicine. According to Zahourek (2005), several reasons for CAM research challenges include:
· The relatively recent use of some of these therapies in the United States
· Individual, cultural, and environmental variables
· Lack of or limited funding sources
· Time as a variable to measure change
· Interpretation and meaning of an experience

Personalized Cancer Care
The outlook for cancer treatment options is a promising one. Researchers and physicians are discovering new ways to identify the best care for patients through targeted treatments. With the large number of cancer types, a treatment plan that works well for one person may not be the best plan for another. Through collaboration, rapidly evolving technology, and research in genetics and the molecular profiling of tumors, researchers and physicians have made astounding strides in the development of personalized cancer care.
A growing access for cancer patients to seeking support
Being handed a cancer diagnosis is like taking a trip to a lonely planet. The psychological trauma can equal or exceed the physical pain the patient goes through. So many people have made varying attempts to show their support for victims of cancer and some time ago, Karen Marshall, a legal blogger wrote a post he captioned ‘Picking Your Support Team’.
Rebecca Ruggear Senior Thesis 2013
The document discusses patient non-adherence to medical treatment plans. It summarizes research showing that healthcare providers and patients have differing views on adherence levels. The main reasons for non-adherence are identified as lack of education, forgetfulness, and cost/complexity of treatment plans. The document reports on surveys of healthcare providers and patients, finding that both groups agree responsibility for adherence is primarily on patients, but that doctors and other providers should better educate patients. Improving communication between providers and patients is seen as key to increasing treatment adherence.

- How community pharmacies can facilitate self-medication and play an important role in supporting self-care.
- Communication skills and clinical reasoning approaches important for community pharmacists to appropriately assess patients' signs and symptoms.
Self medication
Self-medication is a growing global concern that can contribute to antimicrobial resistance. While it provides benefits like convenience and cost savings, it also poses risks if not done properly, such as incorrect diagnosis, inappropriate treatment, and adverse drug reactions. Health professionals and pharmacists can help prevent these risks through education, guidance on proper use, and encouraging medical consultation when needed.

Balance etween quality and cost
This document discusses balancing quality and costs in cancer management. It notes that cancer care costs are projected to exceed $150 billion annually in the US by 2020 due to factors like an aging population and expensive treatments. Physicians are tasked with providing high-quality care to patients while containing costs to society. Shared decision-making that incorporates evidence-based medicine and patient preferences can help improve value by avoiding unnecessary tests and treatments. Training future oncologists in high-value care can also help transform the field to better balance duties to patients and society.

This document discusses the treatment of obesity through a multidisciplinary approach combining bariatric endoscopic procedures, pharmacotherapy, and lifestyle interventions. It notes obesity affects 1/3-1/2 of the population and is the second leading preventable cause of disease and death. While lifestyle changes alone often fail to achieve sustained weight loss, bariatric endoscopic procedures and drugs can help patients lose 10% or more of their body weight. The approach involves an evaluation by a dietitian and psychologist before trials of lifestyle changes and potential additional treatments. The goal is long-term management through a stepped-care model using multiple treatment cycles tailored to the individual.

CONDUCTION SYSTEM OF THE HEART
ECG:
●ECG is a graphic record of the electrical activity of the heart.
●Electrical activity precedes the mechanical activity of the heart.
●Electrical activity has two phases:
Depolarization- contraction of muscle
Repolarization- relaxation of muscle
ECG Leads:
●6 Chest leads
●6 Limb leads
1. Bipolar Limb Leads:
Lead 1- Between right arm(-ve) and left arm(+ve)
Lead 2- Between right arm(-ve) and left leg(+ve)
Lead 3- Between left arm(-ve)
and left leg(+ve)
2. Augmented unipolar Limb Leads:
AvR- Right arm
AvL- Left arm
AvF- Left leg
3.Chest Leads:
V1 : Over 4th intercostal
space near right sternal margin
V2: Over 4th intercostal space near left sternal margin
V3:In between V2 and V4
V4:Over left 5th intercostal space on the mid
clavicular line
V5:Over left 5th intercostal space on the anterior
axillary line
V6:Over left 5th intercostal space on the mid
axillary line.
Normal ECG:
Waves of ECG:
P Wave
•P Wave is a positive wave and the first wave in ECG.
•It is also called as atrial complex.
Cause: Atrial depolarisation
Duration: 0.1 sec
QRS Complex:
•QRS’ complex is also called the initial ventricular complex.
•‘Q’ wave is a small negative wave. It is continued as the tall ‘R’ wave, which is a positive wave.
‘R’ wave is followed by a small negative wave, the ‘S’ wave.
Cause:Ventricular depolarization and atrial repolarization
Duration: 0.08- 0.10 sec
T Wave:
•‘T’ wave is the final ventricular complex and is a positive wave.
Cause:Ventricular repolarization Duration: 0.2 sec
Intervals and Segments of ECG:
P-R Interval:
•‘P-R’ interval is the interval
between the onset of ‘P’wave and onset of ‘Q’ wave.
•‘P-R’ interval cause atrial depolarization and conduction of impulses through AV node.
Duration:0.18 (0.12 to 0.2) sec
Q-T Interval:
•‘Q-T’ interval is the interval between the onset of ‘Q’
wave and the end of ‘T’ wave.
•‘Q-T’ interval indicates the ventricular depolarization
and ventricular repolarization,
i.e. it signifies the
electrical activity in ventricles.
Duration:0.4-0.42sec
S-T Segment:
•‘S-T’ segment is the time interval between the end of ‘S’ wave and the onset of ‘T’ wave.
Duration: 0.08 sec
R-R Interval:
•‘R-R’ interval is the time interval between two consecutive ‘R’ waves.
•It signifies the duration of one cardiac cycle.
Duration: 0.8 sec
