The immunization rate for St. Louis, Missouri, children age two and younger is only 49 percent, below the statewide rate of 64 percent and far below the estimated national rate of 75 percent. In response to this crisis, the St. Louis Integrated Immunization Information System (SLIIIS) was designed to establish an on-line immunization information system, identify barriers to immunization among health care providers and the client population, and implement methods for removing these barriers. Available to both public and private health care providers, SLIIIS uses a population-based approach to monitoring and improving immunization levels in the Eastern Missouri Region. SLIIIS was initiated by a partnership of an academic center with community agencies and institutions. Review of initial development efforts and system design may be valuable to others involved in creating regionally integrated information systems. 相似文献

This study sought to determine if and why barriers to the over-the-counter purchase of syringes in the St. Louis metropolitan area might exist, given that no ordinance prohibits such a sale there. Two male research assistants (one African American, one White) approached 33 of the area's pharmacies to buy syringes. In 14 of those pharmacies, either the purchase was refused or the minimum number of syringes that could be bought was so large (at least 100) that the sale was not practical. Racial bias in rates of refusal and implications for prohibiting or restricting legal availability of syringes are discussed. 相似文献

In Bosnia and Herzegovina, cardiovascular disease accounts for nearly 50% of deaths. Cardiovascular health of resettled Bosnian-Americans has not been well-characterized. Our study aimed to quantify cardiovascular risk in Bosnian-Americans in St. Louis, the largest non-European center of resettlement. Seven community screenings focused on Bosnian-Americans were held. Cardiovascular risk was calculated to stratify individuals into low (<10%), moderate (10–20%), and high (>20%) risk. Those with self-reported coronary heart disease (CHD) or risk equivalent were considered high-risk. Two-hundred fifty Bosnian-Americans were screened; 51% (n?=?128) consented to the IRB-approved study. Twenty-one percent were smokers, 33% obese, and 33% had hypertension. Excluding risk equivalent individuals, 5.7% of subjects were high-risk, increasing to 26.6% when including high-risk equivalents. Lipid abnormalities include elevated triglycerides (29.0%) and low HDL (50.0%). Compared to general American population studies, Bosnian-Americans have greater ten-year hard CHD risk. A community-based approach identified potential culturally-based lifestyle interventions including diet, exercise, and smoking. 相似文献
