Adept Medical is developing a new enteral formula controller to provide a lower-cost alternative to existing pumps. Feedback from patients, clinicians, and health providers indicated that current pumps are too heavy, expensive, and limit mobility. The new device would combine a pressure cuff with a battery-powered flow regulator to deliver formula through a tube, addressing these issues. It is intended for the growing number of people who rely on enteral nutrition due to conditions like cancer, stroke, or aging. The design has undergone product development and testing, with clinical trials planned to verify the clinical requirements before regulatory submission.

Menu labelling for reducing energy ordered and consumed: What’s the evidence?Health Evidence™
Health Evidence hosted a 60 minute webinar examining the effectiveness of menu labelling on reducing energy consumption. Click here for access to the audio recording for this webinar: https://youtu.be/ju5uucv3dEE
Sofia Lourenço and Jodie Anne Littlewood from the Danish Cancer Society led the session and presented findings from their recent review:

Menu labelling is a tool to inform consumers of energy content of meals in the eating-out environment and help consumers make informed decisions. This review examines the effectiveness of menu labelling to reduce energy consumption. Fifteen studies, including 17, 859 participants are included in this review. Evidence suggests that menu labelling reduces overall energy consumed and ordered in the eating-out environment. This webinar examined the effectiveness of menu labelling to reduce energy consumed in the eating-out environment.

The Business of Genomic Testing by James CrawfordKnome_Inc
View this webinar at: http://www.knome.com/webinar-business-of-genomic-testing. This presentation discusses the findings of a College of American Pathologists survey of “early adopters” of NGS recently published in "Genetics in Medicine". The study objective was to identify the reasons for health systems to bring next-generation sequencing into their clinical laboratories and to understand the process by which such decisions were made. A standardized open-ended interview was conducted with the laboratory medical directors and/or department of pathology chairs of 13 different academic institutions in 10 different states.
