CHW PROGRAM AT HOUSTON COMMUNITY COLLEGE

This document describes an alternative approach to investigating maternal deaths in India called "social autopsies". Social autopsies complement traditional verbal autopsies by focusing on social determinants, health systems issues, and human rights perspectives rather than just medical causes of death. The Dead Women Talking initiative conducted 124 social autopsies across India over two years. Their findings showed that marginalized women facing multiple vulnerabilities were most at risk of maternal death. Social autopsies traced the complex health systems and social factors that led to each death. This rights-based approach has increased accountability and informed action at various levels of the health system and community. The experience demonstrates the need to broaden India's maternal death review process beyond the health system to

Summary Various industries, including health care, have adop.docxpicklesvalery

Summary Various industries, including health care, have adopted quality improvement (QI) to enhance practices and outcomes. As demands on the U.S. public health system continue to increase, QI strategies may play a vital role in supporting the system and improving outcomes. Therefore, public health practitioners, like leaders in other industries, are developing QI approaches for application in public health settings. Quality improvement in public health involves systematically evaluating public health programs, practices, and policies and addressing areas that need to be improved to increase healthy outcomes. Although QI methods and techniques have only recently been applied to public health, public health systems offer a wide range of opportunities for implementing, managing, and evaluating QI efforts. The growing field of Public Health Systems and Services Research (PHSSR) offers the potential to contribute to and support QI efforts in public health. PHSSR examines the delivery of public health services within communities as well as the outcomes that result from dynamic interactions within the public health system. By examining the public health system, stakeholder interactions, delivery of services, and outcomes, PHSSR can inform and support the implementation of QI initiatives. Most recently, national, state, and local levels have made notable progress in quality improvement in public health.1, 2 One initiative credited with achieving progress is the Multi-State Learning Collaborative (MLC). The MLC aims to inform the national accreditation program, incorporate quality improvement practice into public health systems, promote collaborative learning across states and partners, and expand the knowledge base in public health. Bringing together state and local practitioners and other stakeholders in a community of practice to achieve MLC goals has yielded several best practices and lessons for public health stakeholders. However, more work is needed if QI is to become standard practice in public health—particularly in understanding health departments’ readiness for change, building the evidence base for effective public health QI practices in the context of the public health system, and examining the sustainability of successful projects, and identifying the determinants of transformational change. ÆResearchInsights Quality Improvement in Public Health: Lessons Learned from the Multi-State Learning Collaborative Background: AcademyHealth’s 2009 Annual Research Meeting At the 2009 Annual Research Meeting (ARM), June 28–30, in Chicago, AcademyHealth convened a panel of three experts, members of the Multi-State Learning Collaborative (MLC), to discuss their experiences in implementing quality improvement collaboratives in public health.

Roots of Health Inequity Dialogues: Designing Staff Development to Strengthen...Jim Bloyd, DrPH, MPH

��

Presentation and 3 20-minute exercises prepared for the annual conference of the Illinois Public Health Association, September 12, 2019 in Springfield, Illinois, USA. Abstract: The Cook County Department of Public Health (CCDPH) used the National Association of County and City Health Officials' online course for the public health workforce Roots of Health Inequity, to accomplish three goals: change the way staff think about public health; change the way staff practice public health; and apply health equity principles to the daily work. Chief Operating Officer Terry Mason, MD, required all staff to participate in the training. Increasing the integration of a health equity approach by first training staff on health equity and how it is relevant to their work was a priority of the agency strategic plan, as well as a QI and Workforce Development priority for CCDPH. Components of the CCDPH Roots of Health Inequity Dialogues include the creation of 1small groups for in-person discussion; a leadership committee; training staff as facilitators; evaluation; a commitment to dialogue. The small group-approach accomplished two things: dialogue and discussion were maximized, while disruption of regular duties and health department functions was minimized. Reliance on staff to facilitate dialogues strengthened leadership for health equity within the health department, and eliminated the need for external facilitation. In addition, the “insider” knowledge of the Facilitators—most of whom have years of experience working at CCDPH---ensured that dialogue leaders understood the institutional culture, and increased the likelihood that the dialogues will be able to examine real barriers as well as opportunities to practice transformation.

Non-Invasive ICP Monitoring for NeurosurgeonsDhaval Shukla

��

This presentation delves into the latest advancements in non-invasive intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring techniques, specifically tailored for neurosurgeons. It covers the importance of ICP monitoring in clinical practice, explores various non-invasive methods, and discusses their accuracy, reliability, and clinical applications. Attendees will gain insights into the benefits of non-invasive approaches over traditional invasive methods, including reduced risk of complications and improved patient outcomes. This comprehensive overview is designed to enhance the knowledge and skills of neurosurgeons in managing patients with neurological conditions. Invasive systems are commonly used for monitoring intracranial pressure (ICP) in traumatic brain injury (TBI) and are considered the gold standard. The availability of invasive ICP monitoring is heterogeneous, and in low- and middle-income settings, these systems are not routinely employed due to high cost or limited accessibility. The aim of this presentation is to develop recommendations to guide monitoring and ICP-driven therapies in TBI using non-invasive ICP (nICP) systems.

If it’s not Itch It’s not Eczema Eczema is a group of medical conditions which causes inflammation and irritation to skin. It is also called as Dermatitis Eczema is an itchy consisting of ill defined erythremotous patches. The skin surface is usually scaly and As time progress, constant scratching leads to thickened lichenified skin. Several classifications of eczemas are available based on Etiology, Pattern and chronicity. According to aetiology Eczema are classified as: Endogenous eczema: Where constitutional factors predispose the patient to developing an eczema. Family history (maternal h/o eczema) is often present Strong genetic predisposition (Filaggrin gene mutations are often present). Filaggrin is responsible for maintaining moisture in skin (hence all AD patients have dry skin. Immunilogical factor-Th-2 disease, Type I hypersensitivity (hence serum IgE high) e.g., Seborrheic dermatitis, Statis dermatitis, Nummular dermatitis, Dyshidrotic Eczema Exogenous eczema: Where external stimuli trigger development of eczema, e.g., Irritant dermatitis, Allergic Dermatitis, Neurodermatitis, Combined eczema: When a combination of constitutional factors and extrinsic triggers are responsible for the development of eczema e.g., Atopic dermatitis Extremes of Temperature Irritants : Soaps, Detergents, Shower gels, Bubble baths and water Stress Infection either bacterial or viral, Bacterial infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus species. Viral infections such as Herpes Simplex, Molluscum Contagiosum Contact allergens Inhaled allergens Airborne allergens Allergens include Metals eg. Nickle, Cobalt Neomycin, Topical ointment Fragrance ingredients such as Balsam of Peru Rubber compounds Hair dyes for example p-Phenylediamine Plants eg. Poison ivy . Atopic Dermatitis : AD is a chronic, pruritic inflammatory skin disease characterized by itchy inflamed skin. Allergic Dermatitis: A red itchy weepy reaction where the skin has come in contact with a substance That immune system recognizes as foreign substances. Ex: Poison envy, Preservatives from creams and lotions. Contact Irritant Dermatitis: A Localized reaction that include redness, itching and burning where the skin has come In contact with an allergen or with irritant such as acid, cleaning agent or chemical. Dyshidrotic Eczema: Irritation of skin on the palms and soles by clear deep blisters that itch and burn. Clinical Features; Acute Eczema:- Acute eczema is characterized by an erythematous and edematous plaque, which is ill-defined and is surmounted by papules, vesicles, pustules and exudate that dries to form crusts. A subsiding eczematous plaque may be covered with scales. Chronic Eczema:- Chronic eczema is characterized by lichenification, which is a triad of hyperpigmentation, thickening markings. The lesions are less exudative and more scaly. Flexural lesions may develop fissures. Pruritus Characteristic Rash Chronic or repeatedly occurring symptoms.
