{"title":"Georgia's Collaborative Approach to Expanding Mosquito Surveillance in Response to Zika Virus: Year Two.","authors":"Thuy-Vi Nguyen, Rosmarie Kelly, Shawna Stuck, R Christopher Rustin","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"With the continued increase in international travel and immigration to Georgia, the Department of Public Health (DPH) continued its mission to prevent and respond to Zika virus (ZIKV) transmission.Methods: We analyzed surveillance data from the DPH to compare the geographical distribution of counties conducting surveillance, total number, and overall percentage of mosquito species collected in 2016 and 2017. Mosquito surveillance in 2017 was mapped by county and species using ArcMap 10.2.0.Results: From 2016 and 2017, mosquito surveillance increased from 60 to 159 counties (165% increase). A total of 145,346 mosquitoes were trapped and identified in 2016 compared to 152,593 in 2017 (5.43% increase). There was a difference in the type of mosquito species found by year. Some species collected in previous years were not collected in 2017, while other species found in 2017 were not previously collected during mosquito surveillance. Also, certain mosquito species were found outside of their expected geographical range.Conclusion: The continued collaborative response to ZIKV by the DPH allowed a continued increase in its surveillance program. Existing and new partnerships continued to develop with military and local health departments to expand and share data. This additional surveillance data allowed DPH to make sound public health decisions regarding mosquito-borne disease risks and close gaps in data related to vector distribution.","PeriodicalId":88789,"journal":{"name":"U.S. Army Medical Department journal","volume":" 1-18","pages":"14-21"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"36448674","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An educational initiative on appropriate use of MRI in evaluating ankle complaints was conducted between the 2 periods.Results: Between October 2009 and March 2010, 230 ankle MRIs were performed at our institution, compared to 347 ankle MRIs performed between December 2012 and August 2013. A lower number of patients underwent operative procedures after the education process than before (17% versus 25%). Fellowship-trained foot and ankle surgeons produced the highest number of operative patients with their MRI ordering practices (P=.003 and P=.0001 for Phases 1 and 2 respectively). There was no change in the number of ankle MRI studies ordered each month following the educational initiative (38.3 and 38.5 for Phases 1 and 2 respectively).Conclusions: The majority of patients undergoing ankle MRI did not undergo operative intervention. Foot and ankle surgeons produce the highest number of operative patients with their MRI ordering practices. Education alone was ineffective in altering ankle MRI ordering patterns.","PeriodicalId":88789,"journal":{"name":"U.S. Army Medical Department journal","volume":" 3-17","pages":"15-20"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"35229017","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"GEHS neurophysiological classification system for patients with neuropathy of the ulnar nerve at the elbow.","authors":"David G Greathouse, Greg Ernst, John S Halle, Scott W Shaffer","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"Background: Neuropathy of the ulnar nerve at the elbow is one of a number of muscle-related and nerve-related disorders that affect people performing intensive work with their hands and upper extremities, and is the second most prevalent peripheral nerve mononeuropathy. There are several classification systems currently being used by the medical community for patients with neuropathy of the ulnar nerve at the elbow. However, few of these classification systems include the clinical electrophysiologic parameters nerve conduction (NCS) and electromyographic (EMG) studies.Purpose: This article describes the GEHS (Greathouse, Ernst, Halle, and Shaffer) neurophysiological classification system for patients with neuropathy of the ulnar nerve at the elbow and includes 2 case studies of patients with electrophysiological evidence of neuropathy of the ulnar nerve at the elbow.Case studies: Two case studies of patients with electrophysiological evidence of neuropathy of the ulnar nerve at the elbow are presented. The GEHS neurophysiological classification system is incorporated into the discussion of these case studies.Summary and clinical relevance: This article describes the GEHS neurophysiological classification system for patients with neuropathy of the ulnar nerve at the elbow which incorporates findings for both the NCS and EMG components of the electrophysiological examination. Availability of expanded electrophysiological data that includes both NCS and EMG testing provides the healthcare team and the patient with more detailed information that may be useful in determining next treatment steps as well as long-term prognosis. Future research comparing the psychometric properties and prognostic utility of the GEHS neurophysiologic classifications is warranted.","PeriodicalId":88789,"journal":{"name":"U.S. Army Medical Department journal","volume":" 3-17","pages":"26-35"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"35229021","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
