What's In OTC Painkillers? Most Americans Don't Know
A surprising small percentage of Americans know what their over-the-counter painkillers contain, researchers from Northwestern University in Chicago revealed in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine. Most people do not even bother to read the labels, the authors wrote. Lack of awareness and interest in the ingredients of painkillers could be a key reason why overdosing in acetaminophen (e.g. Tylenol) is major cause of acute liver failure in America. Over 600 OTC and prescription medication have acetaminophen in them. Michael Wolf, PhD, MPH and team interviewed 45 individuals...

CPR Efforts Successful On Man With No Pulse For 96 Minutes
By all counts, the 54-year-old man who collapsed on a recent winter night in rural Minnesota would likely have died. He'd suffered a heart attack, and even though he was given continuous CPR and a series of shocks with a defibrillator, the man was without a pulse for 96 minutes. But this particular instance of cardiac arrest (click here), reported first in Mayo Clinic Proceedings online, turned out to be highly unusual: "The patient made a complete recovery following prolonged pulselessness," says anesthesiologist and cardiac care specialist Roger White, M.D., lead author of the article...

Itch Receptors Work Through Pain Receptors On Sensory Neurons
A new study of itch adds to growing evidence that the chemical signals that make us want to scratch are the same signals that make us wince in pain. The interactions between itch and pain are only partly understood, said itch and pain researcher Diana Bautista, an assistant professor of molecular and cell biology at the University of California, Berkeley. The skin contains some nerve cells that respond only to itch and others that respond only to pain. Others, however, respond to both, and some substances cause both itching and pain...

Better Labeling Could Help Thwart Acetaminophen Overdose
While well known for relieving everyday aches and pains, few realize that when misused, acetaminophen can lead to acute liver failure and even death, often due to accidental overdose by an uninformed consumer. A new small study looked at what's missing in consumer education about acetaminophen and how to overcome those gaps...

Unusual Kidney Injury Can Be Caused By Hazing, Medication Interaction And Anesthetics
A muscle condition that injures the kidneys is well-known to football experts -- diagnosed recently in a professional player and 13 college athletes. Yet new studies are finding some surprising sources of rhabdomyolysis, the potentially deadly condition, according to research being presented at the National Kidney Foundation's Spring Clinical Meetings, held here this week. This condition causes muscles to break down, releasing their fibers and enzymes into the body. These enter the bloodstream and plug up the kidney, resulting in potentially fatal damage...

Second Option Defibrillator Electrode Pads to Help Save More Lives
Rice University bioengineering students have developed a modified set of external defibrillator pads that can provide an additional option for cardioverting the heart. Three electrodes are embedded between two pads and a switch selects which path for the current to take. By following simple user instructions, bystanders can easily provide a second option that's not available in current defibrillators. The system, which was created to transparently improve the efforts of untrained public responders, can be adapted to existing defibs. The potential for their project was clear from the beginning.
