An experienced physician and orthopedic hand surgeon, Dr. Bobby Chhabra serves the University of Virginia as a professor and chair of orthopedic surgery. Dr. Bobby Chhabra is also the founder and former co-director of the UVA Hand Center. The UVA Hand Center in Charlottesville, Virginia, provides patients with an array of medical services that emphasize care of the hands and upper extremities. Professionals at the UVA Hand Center are capable of treating a variety of conditions, including carpal tunnel, cubital tunnel, and other nerve compression syndromes. In order to effectively treat patients living with carpal tunnel syndrome, a medical condition caused by excessive pressure on the median nerve, surgeons collaborate with neurological experts who specialize in the condition. The leading entrapment neuropathy condition in the United States, carpal tunnel syndrome impacts between 3 and 6 percent of the population. While there is no fool-proof method for preventing the development of carpal tunnel, individuals should discuss risk factors, such as obesity and certain nerve-damaging conditions, with a physician. Medical professionals can also provide insight into minimizing the amount of stress individuals put on their hands throughout the day. Other conditions treated at the UVA Hand Center range from congenital hand differences to arthritis, along with various fractures.

Midwest Stroke Alliance VTE Presentation
The Midwest Stroke Action Alliance recently hosted a panel of health experts on the risks of venous thromboembolism (VTE which is commonly referred to as blood clots).
The health experts on the panel were:
- Mark J. Alberts, MD (Clinical Vice-Chair for Department of Neurology and Neurotherapeutics, UT Southwestern Medical Center)
- Laurie Paletz, BSN, PHN, RN-BC (Stroke Program Coordinator, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center)
- Michael W. Wong, JD (Executive Director, Physician-Patient Alliance for Health & Safety)
Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability in the U.S., with 800,000 cases occurring each year. Each year in the United States, an estimated 300,000 cases of VTE occur. Mortality can be as high as 3.8 percent in patients with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and 38.9 percent in those with pulmonary embolism (PE). VTE is associated with a high risk of death in the U.S. and Europe, with an estimated incidence rate of 1 in 1,000 patients. VTE is particularly common after a stroke. Approximately 20 percent of hospitalized immobile stroke patients will develop DVT, and 10 percent a PE.

HIV DOF Dec15
This document discusses the evolution of understanding and treatment of HIV/AIDS over the past 30+ years from the perspective of a psychiatrist working in an HIV clinic. It summarizes that:
1) In the 1980s, HIV/AIDS was seen as a death sentence and highly stigmatized, but treatment advances have now made it a manageable condition.
2) However, stigma continues to be a problem and prevents people from getting tested, even though early treatment is key.
3) New issues have emerged like "chemsex" where psychoactive drugs are used during sex, hindering condom use and increasing transmission risk.
Atlante Globale delle Cure Palliative
Cure palliative, meno del 10% delle persone che ne hanno bisogno vi possono accedere. Questa è la situazione fotografata dall’Organizzazione Mondiale della Sanità insieme al Worldwide Palliative Care Alliance nel documento “Global Atlas of Palliative Care at the End of Life”. Secondo i numeri del rapporto, ogni anno nel mondo 20 milioni di persone (di cui il 6% sono bambini) hanno bisogno di cure palliative. Un terzo di questi pazienti soffre di tumore, mentre il resto di malattie croniche a danno di vari organi. Rispetto alla elevata domanda, solo 3 milioni di persone hanno ricevuto le terapie di cui avevano bisogno nel 2011, ultimo anno di cui sono disponibili i dati. Nel documento, l’Italia figura tra i Paesi con un avanzato sistema di cure palliative, anche se l’uso di oppioidi è inferiore quello degli altri Paesi avanzati.

1) An anesthesiologist plays a critical role in surgery beyond just putting the patient to sleep - they must continuously monitor the patient's vital signs and be prepared to respond if complications arise.
2) It takes extensive education and clinical training to become a physician anesthesiologist. Using them provides patients the highest level of care and safety during their procedure.
3) Research shows that having a physician anesthesiologist present reduces the risk of death from surgical complications.

The document discusses controversies around the management of menopause and quality of life (QoL) for menopausal women. It discusses two types of medical practice - individual clinical medicine and population-based social medicine. It argues practitioners should not overemphasize epidemiological associations that are not necessarily cause-effect findings. The document also discusses interactions between cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis and obesity, and reviews evidence that hormone therapy may be safe and effective for relieving menopausal symptoms in younger women.
Rapid Response, INhealth
The document discusses emergency care services in Loudoun County, Virginia. There are three emergency care centers (ECCs) that work together to provide rapid emergency response throughout the county. The ECCs are staffed by specialized physicians, nurses, and technicians equipped to handle all types of medical emergencies. The centers collaborate closely with emergency medical services to direct patients to the most appropriate facility based on their needs. This comprehensive emergency care network aims to ensure residents have access to excellent emergency care no matter where they are located in Loudoun County.

The document discusses an osteoporosis awareness campaign called "Request-the-Test" that aims to increase DXA testing rates among adults aged 40 and older. It will use an integrated marketing strategy including TV, radio, mailers and posters to raise awareness of osteoporosis risks and encourage people to get tested. The campaign will track metrics like calls, website traffic and DXA screening rates to evaluate its effectiveness in boosting testing numbers. It has funding support from healthcare organizations and companies to help more people get diagnosed early through low-cost DXA exams.
OrthoConnectionsSpringSummer2014NEW
- Researchers at BIDMC found that younger women (ages 18-45) who fractured their wrists may have weaker bones and be predisposed to fractures later in life. Using CT scans, they found thinner and more spaced out trabeculae (connective structures within bones) in women with fractures compared to those without fractures.
- This suggests some women may show early signs of skeletal fragility through fractures at a younger age, even before typical osteoporosis diagnoses in older populations. Identifying factors for increased fracture risk could help guide prevention strategies.
OHSU Health Mag Fall 2014 FNL
- Gert Boyle, chairman of Columbia Sportswear, donated $100 million to the Knight Cancer Challenge campaign at OHSU, bringing fundraising total to $430 million toward a $500 million goal.

stroke2
Recognize symptoms, act quickly when stroke occurs. Stroke occurs when the brain is deprived of oxygen, usually from a blood clot. If symptoms occur it is important to get to the hospital immediately, as there is only a three-hour window to receive tPA to prevent permanent damage. Signs of stroke include sudden weakness in the arm, leg or face, garbled speech, vision problems, dizziness or difficulty walking. It is critical to call 9-1-1 and not drive yourself to ensure the fastest treatment.

An Overview of Thumb Duplication in Children
Dr. Bobby Chhabra treats conditions like thumb duplication as an orthopaedic hand surgeon. Thumb duplication, also called pre-axial polydactyly, is a congenital defect where a child is born with more than one thumb per hand, though the thumbs are often smaller and less developed. The thumbs can be fused together or separate, and may be accompanied by defects in other fingers. Unlike duplications in other fingers, duplicate thumbs have divided bones, tendons, and muscles between them, complicating surgical solutions. Children usually must wait until ages 1-2 for anesthesia before reconstructive procedures can begin to address functional and cosmetic limitations.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying Them
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
