Ebola: A holistic approach is required to achieve effective management and control
The current Ebola outbreak in West Africa has already caused substantial mortality and dire human and economic consequences. It continues to represent an alarming public health threat in the region and beyond and jeopardizes the provision of health care and other services in the affected countries. The scale of the epidemic has accelerated research efforts for diagnostics, treatment, and prevention galvanized through increased availability of funding. Our knowledge relating to the virus, disease pathogenesis, risk factors, dynamics of transmission, and epidemic control is increasing, and sociocultural factors have emerged ...

Alternative Research Funding to Improve Clinical Outcomes: Model of Prediction and Prevention of Sudden Cardiac Death Special Report
Although identification and management of cardiovascular risk markers have provided important population risk insights and public health benefits, individual risk prediction remains challenging. Using sudden cardiac death risk as a base case, the complex epidemiology of sudden cardiac death risk and the substantial new funding required to study individual risk are explored. Complex epidemiology derives from the multiple subgroups having different denominators and risk profiles, while funding limitations emerge from saturation of conventional sources of research funding without foreseeable opportunities for increases. A res...

Merging Electronic Health Record Data and Genomics for Cardiovascular Research: A Science Advisory From the American Heart Association AHA Science Advisory
The process of scientific discovery is rapidly evolving. The funding climate has influenced a favorable shift in scientific discovery toward the use of existing resources such as the electronic health record. The electronic health record enables long-term outlooks on human health and disease, in conjunction with multidimensional phenotypes that include laboratory data, images, vital signs, and other clinical information. Initial work has confirmed the utility of the electronic health record for understanding mechanisms and patterns of variability in disease susceptibility, disease evolution, and drug responses. The additio...

Medicaid Long-Term Care: State Variation and the Intergovernmental Lobby
This article advances knowledge of the origins, nature, and implications of this variation. After examining the degree of variation in state spending on Medicaid LTC, we show how federal policy has over the past fifty years steadily increased state discretion to shape these services. This decentralization largely reflects the potency of the intergovernmental lobby—governors and other state officials—in influencing federal policy. While fueling state variation, the intergovernmental lobby has also provided valuable political support that has helped Medicaid grow and resist retrenchment. After considering policy ...

Funding Opportunities for Building Data Connections Between EMS and Healthcare Partners
EMS providers often treat patients with complicated medical histories yet have no access to relevant health data, such as hospital or out-patient records, which might provide information critical to patient care. EMS reports also are rarely integrated into hospital records, leaving specialists and other hospital staff unaware of how patients presented to EMS initially and what treatments they received prior to arriving at the emergency department. Health IT is a proven tool that can help EMS providers and hospitals exchange patient data to provide decision support in the field, prepare the hospital for a patient’s arriva...

E08-A Palliative Care Units (PCUs): Towards International Definitions and Standards for Tertiary-Level In-Patient Service Provision
Palliative Care Units (PCUs) are an integral part of tertiary-level service provision in jurisdictions recognized for the full integration of palliative care under a systems approach. As part of the mandate of the “Declaration of Partnership and Commitment to Action” as a policy document, the Province of Ontario (Canada) is currently building an integrated service framework to improve access to and strengthen the provision of services across the continuum of care. Systemic challenges for (acute) in-patien t facilities include levels of service provision, health human resources and remuneration (with a new health-based ...

How to Get States to Reduce Crime and Incarceration At Once
The early 1990s were a turbulent time for many cities and towns in America. The national violent crime rate had been steadily ticking up, increasing 40% from 1984 to 1992, as the murder rate climbed 20% between 1984 and 1993, disproportionately impacting communities of color. Congress reacted by passing the 1994 Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act, better known as the “1994 Crime Bill,” which restructured federal grant funding. It inspired states to build more prisons. The number of people behind bars increased by almost 50% between then and now, from 1.5 million to 2.2 million people. African America...

Patient and Family Engagement in the ICU: Untapped Opportunities and Under Recognized Challenges.
Abstract The call for meaningful patient and family engagement in healthcare and research is gaining impetus. Healthcare institutions and research funding agencies increasingly encourage clinicians and researchers to work actively with patients and their families to advance clinical care and research. Engagement is increasingly mandated by healthcare organizations and is becoming a prerequisite for research funding. In this article, we review the rationale and the current state of patient and family engagement in patient care and research in the intensive care unit (ICU). We identify opportunities to strengthen en...
