Patient experience with, and use of, an electronic monitoring system to assess vaccination responses

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the user experience and acceptability of an electronic patient monitoring system. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS: 822 Military and civilian personnel at a health clinic at a major US military headquarters used an Internet and telephone-based electronic monitoring system to report vaccination-site responses and symptoms after receiving the smallpox vaccination. Focus groups of vaccinees were conducted to help develop a survey about the experience that was distributed to 379 vaccinees (96% completion rate). RESULTS: Users of the electronic monitoring system reported that it was fast and easy to use and reported they would use a system like this again and recommend an electronic monitoring system to a friend or relative. Most users (84%) were comfortable with a physician tracking their vaccine reaction using their electronic reports, but only half (51%) were comfortable with eliminating the post-vaccination follow-up visit with their health-care provider based on their electronic reports. CONCLUSIONS: This electronic monitoring system was well received by vaccinees and allowed health-care providers to track the status of vaccinees. However, vaccinees were not comfortable replacing a physician visit with electronic monitoring, at least for the smallpox vaccination. A monitoring system like this may be useful in public health settings, such as mass vaccination or prophylaxis during a bioterrorism event, a pandemic influenza outbreak, or another public health emergency.     

Status of Women and Infants in Complex Humanitarian Emergencies

Women and children bear the greatest burden in the midst of war and long‐term disasters. Complex humanitarian emergencies are characterized by social disruption, armed conflict, population displacement, collapse of public health infrastructure, and food shortages. Humanitarian assistance for refugees and internally displaced populations requires particular attention to the common issues affecting morbidity and mortality in women and infants. Gender‐based violence and reproductive health concerns are discussed within the context of populations affected by conflict and forced migration. Recommendations for midwives and women's health care providers engaging in care for women and children in complex humanitarian emergencies are discussed.

Influence of Electromagnetic Fields on Function of Automated External Defibrillators

Objectives: In this study, the authors tested whether electromagnetic interference (EMI) is able to impair correct electrocardiogram analysis and produce false‐positive shock advice from automated external defibrillators (AEDs) when the true rhythm is sinus. Methods: Nineteen healthy subjects were used to test five AEDs available on the Austrian market in a prospective, open, and sequence‐randomized study. The primary outcome variable was the absolute number of shocks advised in the presence of EMI. The secondary outcome was the number of impaired analyses caused by incorrectly detected patient movements or electrode failure. Results: Of 760 tests run, 18 (2.37%) cases of false‐positive results occurred, and two of five AEDs recommended shocks in the presence of sinus rhythm. Of 760 tests run, no electrode failures occurred. There were 27 occurrences (3.55%) of motion detected by an AED in the presence of strong electromagnetic fields. Conclusions: AED models differ in their response to EMI; it may be useful to consider specific safety requirements for areas with such fields present. Working personnel and emergency medical services staff should be informed about potential risks and the possible need for patient evacuation before AEDs are attached and shock recommendations are followed.     

The evidence for physiologic management of the active phase of the first stage of labor

The active phase of first stage labor is generally defined as the period between 3 cm to 4 cm to complete cervical dilatation, in the presence of regular uterine contractions. Most women will experience this portion of labor within hospital obstetric units, where care commonly features restriction to bed, electronic fetal monitoring, early treatment of "slow" labors, and few pain management options beyond epidurals and narcotics. However, the available evidence on appropriate care for healthy childbearing women favors activity in labor, intermittent auscultation, patience from caregivers, and nonpharmacologic methods of pain relief. This article reviews the evidence for care practices that support physiologic labor. Modifying intrapartum care to reflect current evidence will improve women's health, and will require a multilevel approach and consistent midwifery demonstration of the model.     

Early Results of the Mau Osteotomy for Correction of Moderate to Severe Hallux Valgus: A Review of 24 Cases

In our retrospective study, we report the objective results of the Mau osteotomy in the treatment of hallux valgus. We reviewed the results of 24 cases of moderate to severe hallux valgus deformities corrected with the Mau osteotomy of the first metatarsal combined with a distal soft-tissue procedure. Follow-up was possible in 24 cases. Preoperatively the mean hallux valgus and first intermetatarsal angles were 31.3 degrees and 16.6 degrees respectively, and were corrected postoperatively to an average of 13.00 degrees+/-7.15 degrees and 9.80 degrees+/-2.43 degrees respectively (P< .001). In the sagittal plane, the first metatarsal was shortened by an average of 2.00 mm. Two (8.3%) cases had dorsal elevation of the osteotomy fragment. Complications included 3 recurrences of the deformity, 1 frank nonunion, 8 dorsal cortical nonunions, 5 cases of undercorrection, and 1 case of broken hardware that was present in the nonunion that went on to revision. There were no superficial or deep infections, and no cases of transfer metatarsalgia were noted. In this series, the use of an oblique first metatarsal osteotomy with a dorsal shelf resulted in reliable and powerful correction of the first intermetatarsal angle in patients with moderate to severe hallux valgus. Particular attention should be paid to severe IM angles and the possibility of undercorrections. Despite ambulation postoperatively, the Mau osteotomy minimized dorsal malunion and the incidence of transfer metatarsalgia. LEVEL OF CLINICAL EVIDENCE: 4.
