Antimicrobial resistance is one of the biggest threats to human health and is rising to dangerously high levels in all parts of the world. Anyone, of any age, in any country, could be impacted. While it's normal for microbes to develop resistance to drugs, the way antimicrobials are currently being used is accelerating the process, and as a result common infections and minor injuries are becoming an increasingly greater threat to our well-being. Organizations from across the world are taking action and making progress on this issue, but is there anything patients, their families and patient advisors can do to help?

Patient engagement is viewed by many to be a critical component of achieving safe healthcare. The question becomes how best to engage all patients - the public - in the effort towards increasing safer healthcare practices. Other prevention efforts have effectively engaged the public in achieving significant cultural shifts in attitudes and actions. The campaign to decrease smoking is one such example. For instance, anti-smoking efforts have made it unacceptable to smoke with your children in the car. The efforts toward increasing patient safety could benefit from the lessons learned in the anti-smoking campaigns.

Justin Bowra - The elephant in the living room
Justin Bowra takes a break from ultrasound to broach the uncool but crucial subject of health care economics.
Health care spending make up a large proportion of the budgets of OECD nations, and it is increasing in relation to GDP. This is an unsustainable situation and something has got to give.
In part 1 of Justin’s talk, he asks the question, where is the money going? The commonly asserted points of the aging population, better medical treatments, litigation and corporatisation of health care contribute. Justin argues, however, that the biggest problem is the system itself. To acknowledge the elephant in the living room is to acknowledge that we as doctors contribute to the problem, but we also have the greatest responsibility to be part of the solution.
In part 2, Justin briefly discusses ways in which the system can be fixed. He touches on taming special interests, shared decision making, surrendering autonomy and to look at the big picture - remembering that what we do for each individual patient has consequences for everyone else.

Rapid response systems (RRSs) have become a routine part of the way patients are managed in general wards of acute care hospitals. They have been adopted by national health and safety organisations in North America, Canada, the United Kingdom and Australia and are increasingly being used in other parts of the world.
Studies have almost universally shown significant reductions in outcome indicators such as mortality (up to one third) and cardiac arrest rates (up to 50%). However the validity of these outcomes is questionable as most of these studies are single-centre, before-and-after studies conducted by one or two clinical champions in Rapid Response.
This presentation reveals that the implementation of an Intensivist led Rapid Response Team in an Australian quaternary hospital did not demonstrate such dramatic results. In fact, after one year of service the standardised mortality ratio and the in-hospital cardiac arrest rate remained similar.
The presentation explores some of the operational impacts of a RRS including the replacement of critical thinking with reliance on protocols and the progressive super-specialisation of medical teams. Despite these impacts and relatively static patient outcome data, the service has rapidly become an integral part of the hospital.
Barriers between Intensive Care and ward staff have broken down and quality outcome results have consistently shown ward nurses and doctors feel better prepared, educated and supported in managing clinical deterioration. These surprising results raise the question; should we place more value in quality outcomes?
Leveraging Mobile Apps and Digital Therapeutics to Improve Behavioral HealthSpectrum Health System
In this presentation, the top apps and digital therapeutics for behavioral health, with a focus on stress, depression, and anxiety, will be reviewed including a summary of program offerings and patient outcomes. Strategies for embedding digital health programs as complements to traditional behavioral health treatment will be discussed. The design and results of a recent implementation of mobile app prescriptions as part of standard care in 12 clinical areas with 70 plus prescribing providers will be described. Engagement and acceptability data from patients and providers will be shared. Strategies for developing standard work and governance for this new category of behavioral health treatment will be offered. Discussion will center on how mobile health represents a high value, low-cost care transformation for the future of health care.

2016 16th population health colloquium: summary of proceedings Innovations2Solutions
This paper will discuss the four key ideas discussed at the Colloquium that will have important ramifications as healthcare organizations seek to implement population health strategies:
1. understanding and alleviating Patient fear is Key to Patient experience
2. the Case for a new Population Health Protection agenda as a means to drive down Healthcare Costs
3. using data and technology to improve Healthcare for older adults
4. engage Consumers in Wellness-based Population Health and thrive financially
The rise of online fake news on social media highlights an increasing problem. This talk, given at University of Michigan, explores why health professionals have a professional obligation to ensure patients get accurate, understandable health information.
Precision Medicine: Four Trends Make It PossibleHealth Catalyst
When realized, the promise of precision medicine (to specifically tailor treatment to each individual) stands to transform healthcare for the better by delivering more effective, appropriate care. To date, to achieve precision medicine, health systems have faced financial, data management, and interoperability barriers. Current trends in healthcare, however, will give researchers and clinicians the quality and breadth of health data, biological information, and technical sophistication to overcome the challenges to achieving precision medicine.
Four notable trends in healthcare will bolster to growth of precision medicine in the coming years:
Decision support methods harness the power of the human genome.
Healthcare leverages big data analytics and machine learning.
Reimbursement methods incentivize health systems to keep patients well.
Emerging tools enable more data, more interoperability.

The article I chose to analyze was “Making a connection: Family experiences with bedside rounds in the intensive care unit. The article examined the experience of families with a loved one in the intensive care unit and whether or not the families' participation in daily rounds decreased their anxiety and increased their overall positive perspective. The theoretical framework utilized by the authors Cody, Sullivan-Bolyai, and Reid-Ponte was the Family Management Style Framework.
The Family Management Style Framework was developed by Knafl and Deatrick in 1990 in order to better understand the coping style of families with children who had chronic health conditions (Knafl & Deatrick, 2003). The FMSF looked at the management behaviors and patterns of response to childhood chronic illness (Knafl & Deatrick, 2003). There are three major components in the FMSF, Definition of the situation, Management behaviors, and Sociocultural context (Knafl & Deatrick, 2003). The framework also describes five family management styles, thriving, accommodating, enduring, struggling and floundering (Knafl & Deatrick, 2003). The relationship between the family members, healthcare professionals, and their coping strategies is the basis for the framework.
The research study used the FMSF to look at which families participated in bedside rounds and which opted not to and the overall result. The framework looks specifically at the intersection of the management of chronic illness and the impact on family life (Knafl, et al., 2012). The finding was that the inclusion and willingness of families to participate in bedside rounds ultimately reduced their fear of the unknown and distrust in the healthcare providers. In the end, the families that attended the bedside rounds were better prepared for their loved one's discharge. The concept of the FMSF was woven throughout the study. The targeted areas of familial response to chronic illness were based on the three identified components of the definition of the situation or illness, management and coping behaviors of the individuals, and the perceived outcomes. The overarching finding of the study was that clear, consistent communication by the healthcare team to the families significantly decreased anxiety, and fear and increased trust in the healthcare professionals. The end result was an improved experience for the family.
King’s theory of Goal Attainment cis another framework that would be effective in this study. King’s theory examines individuals as they relate to personal, interpersonal and social systems (Petiprin, 2016). King noted that human beings function as dy ...

Value-based health care is one of the most pressing topics in health care finance and policy today. Value-based payment structures are widely touted as critical to controlling runaway health care costs, but are often difficult for health care entities to incorporate into their existing infrastructures. Because value-based health care initiatives have bipartisan support, it is likely that these programs will continue to play a major role in both the public and private health insurance systems. As such, there is a pressing need to evaluate the implementation of these initiatives thus far and to discuss the direction that American health care financing will take in the coming years.
To explore this important issue, the Petrie-Flom Center for Health Law Policy, Biotechnology, and Bioethics at Harvard Law School collaborated with Ropes & Gray LLP to host a one-day conference on value-based health care. This event brought together scholars, health law practitioners, and health care entities to evaluate the impact of value-based health care on the American health care system.

But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
