Boston, MA (PRWEB) January 26, 2012

In2MedEd and the Office of Continuing Education at Tufts University School of Medicine are jointly sponsoring an Interdisciplinary Management of In-Hospital Hyponatremia multimedia online CME activity at http://www.tufts-hyponatremia.com. The target audience for this multimedia online CME activity is hospital-based cardiologists, critical care specialists, emergency physicians, endocrinologists, hepatologists, hospitalists and nephrologists.

The faculty of the online hyponatremia CME activity are G. Michael Felker, MD, MHS (Duke Clinical Research Institute), Cynthia Korzelius, MD, MSc, FHM (Newton-Wellesley Hospital; also assistant clinical professor, Tufts University School of Medicine), Robert W. Schrier, MD (University of Colorado School of Medicine), and Joseph Verbalis, MD (Georgetown University Hospital). This activity will take the form of a 60-minute multimedia program available for on-demand learning and will include a combination of branching case-based and didactic learning elements, focusing on challenging management issues. Video-captured faculty will present the multimedia online hyponatremia CME activity overview and patient cases.

The patient cases will be displayed in animation (avatars in hospital settings) and will be interspersed with interactive multiple-choice CME questions, enabling the learners to first assess their CME knowledge base and then review the evidence that supports the best answer. The continuing medical education faculty, utilizing slides, offering clinical pearls, and other appropriate means, will present this immediate feedback.

At the conclusion of this online continuing medical education activity, participants should be able to:

    Identify and assess patients at risk of hyponatremia;
    Achieve timely and effective diagnosis and management of in-hospital patients with hyponatremia, taking into account the effects of underlying comorbidities and diuretic usage;
    Carefully monitor the rate of correction of serum sodium levels in patients with chronic hyponatremia to avoid permanent and potentially fatal neurologic complications;
    Balance the potential interactions of one treatment with another to achieve optimal resolution of both the hyponatremia and the underlying disease(s); and
    Adhere to a multidisciplinary approach to the management of hyponatremia that provides the patient with continuity of care throughout hospitalization.

The Tufts University School of Medicine (TUSM) Office of Continuing Education (OCE) was established more than 30 years ago primarily to serve the continuing education needs of Tufts-affiliated physicians. Today, the OCE sponsors, develops and implements continuing education (CE) programming that addresses health care improvements and enhances the professional development of both TUSM-affiliated’ and non-TUSM physicians, nurses, pharmacists and other members of the health care team. In recent years, TUSM OCE became a nationally accredited provider for nurses (American Nurses Credentialing Center Commission on Accreditation) and pharmacists (Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education) as well.

Beverly Hills, CA (PRWEB) July 13, 2006

MommyNose.Com, a hip and hilarious new website magazine for parents has just hit the internet stands and it’s a big hit. This hysterical new online resource for parents comes recommended by some of the top stars in Hollywood, including Oprah. “Mommy Nose is a fabulous new information center for all mommies to be!”

The magazine is edited and reviewed by writer and comedian, Jill Gatsby who really tells it like it is. Her perspective on parenting is fresh, funny and informative. “There’s no need to buy another book on babies because http://www.mommynose.com covers everything from getting knocked up to enrolling your kid into L.A.’s hottest yoga class for the stars. Mommy Nose sniffs out everything from diaper bags to diaper pails and tells you what and where the best buy really is.

MommyNose.Com is a fully detailed online monthly magazine that covers everything from baby friendly restaurant reviews to what and when to start feeding your baby organic foods.

The dessert of this hot new website is the special monthly column written in the “Sex in the City” style by Mommy Nose aka Jill Gatsby. Each month we follow first time mother, Mommy Nose, as she shares with us her latest blunders and epiphanies. Jill Gatsby writes about her real experiences with Gabriel, her newborn son who she refers to as Baby Nose. As they grow together we read and watch the drama unfold. Mommy Nose is the first to pull her own covers and admit she really doesn’t know a thing about parenting. Yes, she’s in the dark with the rest of us. The Mommy Nose column shows parents that every one is human and we all are going to screw up some time when it comes to parenting. With all of its humor and self deprecation, the column is extremely solution based and offers new parents real problem solving tools to make their job a little easier.

The restaurant review section is cleverly put together with four babies walking being the best review a baby friendly restaurant can get to four babies crying which means the place should be closed for business ASAP.

If you are looking for a good mommy and me yoga class or just looking to meet up with other mommies to hang with in the Los Angeles area then mommynose.com is your one stop shop. There’s even a free Blog sign up for parents to share recipes, ideas and start stroller party walks in the local park.

Mommy Nose not only reviews all the baby products on the market, she personally tests them all out. MommyNose.Com features the “Pick” of the month on baby carriers, books, music,counseling centers, adoption options, daycare, education, mommy and me, nutrition, shopping, swim classes and yoga. Did I mention the magazine puts out 10 fabulous quick tips every month for mommies to be? There is also http://www.daddynose.com, a throw off of mommynose.com that instructs daddy’s to be on how to survive those nine months before baby arrives without having their heads bit off. It’s no wonder that celebrities from Jamie Lee Curtis to Red Buttons are all talking about MommyNose.Com. “I wish Mommy Nose had been around when I had my first baby. This is a must for all parents to be.” MommyNose.Com is a refreshing new online magazine that has a little something for everyone.

“I hope you keep reading and I hope that those who have come to laugh will stay to learn a little too … because our children are our future.”

Whaa! Whaa! Whaa! Mommy Nose.

Woodland Hills, CA (PRWEB) January 25, 2012

Product-Insure.com, a site dedicated to providing Product Liability Insurance quotes for California based businesses, is finally live and running. The site is owned and managed by Brilliant Insurance Services, a specialty commercial insurance brokerage based in Woodland Hills, CA. Granted, the site is still in a very early stage, but the agents at Brilliant Insurance Services are ready for quoting.

“California Product Liability Insurance quotes don’t have to be hard to obtain…,” says Julie Karubian, CFO of Brilliant Insurance Services “…these risks are fun to quote, seeing as each product I quote is different from the last…” Sure, how fun can insurance be? Apparently it can’t get more interesting to Julie. “Whether or not the product is imported or made here in the U.S., this keeps me going – as I feel I am doing my part to keep the public as well as the interests of my clients protected”. “We insure a considerable amount of Product liability insurance in California”, Julie remarks. According to Julie, the fact that the Port of Long Beach is a huge point of entry for products being imported into the country, makes the need for product liability insurance a local necessity. Her secret, product knowledge – most agents out there sell home & auto, or life & health, but only well trained and studied brokers can sell this sort of insurance product with confidence. Julie adds, “…it really helps me to be on a first name-basis with my underwriters…I insure some VERY interesting products”.

What is Product Liability? The simple answer is a commercial general liability policy contains a section of coverage, that if underwritten properly, provides coverage if a product – that is used properly and for its’ intended use – results in bodily injury and property damage. The policy would also provide defense costs for the policyholder.

Who needs Product Liability Insurance? Importers, distributors, and manufacturers all need to carry product liability. Insurance for importers in California is very common, as it is the main gateway for products shipped in from the East, mainly China. Likewise, insurance for distributors in California is also a necessity. Believe it or not, once someone puts their “label” on a product, they are considered to be the manufacturer by the insurance companies and are underwritten and insured as such. Hence, product liability insurance for manufacturers in California, including food products, is a necessity.

When a person or business owner begins his or her search for a cheap quote for product liability insurance, he or she would probably turn to the internet to start the research. The problem is that the worldwide web is huge and many customers don’t know where to turn to and what agencies write specific lines of coverage. For example, many insurance agencies say they do commercial insurance but really don’t know much about the intricacies of coverage, like “product recall”, “stock throughput”, and “food spoilage”.

After being in business for over 10 years and insuring several hundred of these types of accounts, Brilliant Insurance Services decided to make the search for this specialty line of insurance more readily available to the small to medium sized business owner, especially when importation and manufacturing of “products” is such a hot button issue in the revitalization of the economy right now. “So many insurance companies are hungry for this type of risk right now. We have seen considerable rate reductions. Furthermore, different carriers have different ways of pricing and our job is to get the best coverage we can at the best price” adds Julie. “Brilliant Insurance Services also takes the time to explain to our clients the differences in the myriad of Product Liability policies available such as an “Occurrence” Form policy versus a “Claims Made” policy. A client can make a much better decision as to which quote to purchase when they are properly informed by their broker”, Julie points out.

It is quite probable that in the near future, Product-Insure.com and the folks at Brilliant Insurance Services would be getting licenses to quote outside of California. For now, customers seeking Product Liability in California are encouraged to call for a quote or visit the site. The website itself will undergo a massive change in the next several months, which will make the “on-line” application and purchasing of a policy more of a simplified process.

Rockville, MD (PRWEB) March 27, 2007

CME Outfitters, LLC, (CMEO) an independent accredited provider of multidisciplinary continuing education programming and related healthcare communications services, announces the release of the new restless leg syndrome (RLS) section at the Sleep and Wake Medicine Clinical Knowledge Center on its flagship professional website, http://www.neuroscienceCME.com. This latest educational update is offered as a complimentary service to the professional community with an interest in sleep-wake medicine.

Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a sensorimotor disorder characterized primarily by motor restlessness brought on by rest, and accentuated later in the day and during the early night in those with normal circadian activity rhythms. The urge to move is usually accompanied by unpleasant sensations. These paresthesias can range in severity from uncomfortable to irritating to painful.

The most distinctive aspect of RLS is that the symptoms are activated by lying down and trying to relax. As a result, most people with RLS have difficulty falling asleep and staying asleep. Left untreated, the condition causes exhaustion and daytime fatigue. Many people with RLS report that their job, personal relations, and activities of daily living are strongly affected as a result of their exhaustion. They are often unable to concentrate, have impaired memory, or fail to accomplish daily tasks. More information on RLS is available at http://www.neuroscienceCME.com/resources_knowledge_rls.asp (free activation required).

Clinical Knowledge Centers form the cornerstone of neuroscienceCME.com and provide in-depth treatments of various disease areas related to the neurosciences. Narcolepsy and RLS are currently covered at the Sleep and Wake Medicine Clinical Knowledge Center. Previously released Centers explore the areas of bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder, schizophrenia, alcohol use disorders, and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder. Several additional Centers are scheduled for rollout in 2007.

All content on neuroscienceCME.com Clinical Knowledge Centers is independently developed by CMEO in collaboration with CMEO’s professional Clinical Review Board. This Board is made up of clinicians, researchers, and educators with expertise in specific areas of the neurosciences. Their editorial and scientific input helps ensure the validity and clinical relevance of each Center.

Announcements about new content are provided via the bi-weekly neuroscienceCME Clinical Compass™ e-newsletter, which currently has an opt-in subscriber base of over 55,000 healthcare professionals.

CMEO developed neuroscienceCME.com to fill an online resource gap identified by clinicians practicing in disciplines related to brain function. The site’s primary mission is to be the healthcare professional’s central portal for accessing, debating, synthesizing, and implementing the latest findings and best practices in the neurosciences. Resources on the site encourage healthcare providers to explore the latest evidence, connect with their peers, apply education in practice and in virtual case studies, and, through these efforts, advance the field and improve patient outcomes.

CME Outfitters develops and distributes live, recorded, print, and web-based educational activities to thousands of clinicians each year and offers expert accreditation services for non-accredited organizations.

San Clemente, CA (PRWEB) January 20, 2012

There’s no instant cure for drug and alcohol addictions.

“The Pathway to addiction is slow, long, painful and winding. The Pathway to recovery is far more challenging but the end result produces pure, unadulterated bliss for recovering addicts and their families,” said 449 Recovery founder Rodney Robinson.

Not to be content with simply being another drug rehab center, the first phase of the 449Recovery program is simple and straight forward; clients simply tell their story and share personal experiences about struggles with addiction at the Orange County California Drug Rehabilitation center.

“After facing the facts about their lives and their issues- clients can then be honest with themselves about the problems that their addiction is causing. At this point, true recovery begins,” said Robinson.

After the phase of admittance, self discovery, and revelation, it’s time to get to work. Direction is provided by counselors to help clients face their fears and find new ways of behaving using behavior modification techniques to change negative behavioral patterns typically found in those with drug and alcohol addiction into positive traits such as self esteem and personal skills enhancement. The program’s high success rate culminates with a focus on setting and reaching goals while reaching out to other addicts that the San Clemente drug rehab center has received praise and accolades for.

Indeed the 449Recovery team is made up almost exclusively of former drug and alcohol abusers who find catharsis through their continual helping and support for others. The founders and executive team of 449Recovery all have a unique story to tell about their struggles with addiction and subsequent triumph over the cycle of addiction. With an estimated 7 million addicts in the US, 449Recovery welcomes the challenge of giving hope to those mired in the cycle of drug and alcohol addiction.

About 449 Recovery

449 Recovery offers intervention services for both adults and teens, detox assistance, group and individual therapy as well an expansive virtual network of resources available to their patients online. All of 449 Recovery’s counselors are recovering addicts themselves, bringing a unique understanding and authenticity to their services. They are headquartered in San Clemente at 1401 N. El Camino Real, Suite 106, San Clemente, CA 92672. For more information, visit their website at http://www.449recovery.org.

HOPE’s Health Education Programs Are Empowering Indonesia’s Health Workers

Millwood, VA (PRWEB) December 23, 2011

Maternal and Child Health Programs Empowering Communities for Better Health

Global NGO Project HOPE says health education has been the driving force in rebuilding healthy and stable lives for women and children in post-tsunami Indonesia, and in helping to reconstruct a shattered health care system, as the country remembers the disaster that washed over the region seven years ago on December 26.

A staggering 226,000 people were killed when a tsunami, triggered by a 9.15-magnitude earthquake, struck Indonesia’s Aceh Province on Sumatra Island on December 26, 2004. It was seen as one of the most devastating natural disasters in recent history as over 1.7 million people were displaced in the worst affected countries – Indonesia, India, the Maldives, Sri Lanka and Thailand.

“The region’s health care system was already in disrepair after 30 years of civil war which made it difficult for many to access nation-wide health initiatives. The tsunami compounded the problem, exposing women and children to a crisis in health care,” said Dr. Nasaruddin Sheldon, Project HOPE’s Country Director in Indonesia.

Project HOPE, a global health education and humanitarian assistance organization, responded to the humanitarian crisis by sending more than 200 medical volunteers aboard the United States Navy hospital ship USNS Mercy, as well as donating more than $ 7 million in medical supplies and medicines.

Again in 2006, when an earthquake hit Indonesia’s Central Java region, HOPE responded with a Mobile Health Caravan that traveled to remote areas to provide pediatric care, psychotherapy, physical therapy, health worker training, and data collection and surveillance.

In Aceh Province, one of the most underserved areas of Indonesia due to its geographic inaccessibility and the impact of the 2004 tsunami, HOPE programs have improved the health of women and children in two sub-districts by expanding access to quality maternal and child health services through the promotion of healthy behaviors.    

The Big Lottery Fund, a grant-making public body in the United Kingdom awarded Project HOPE a grant in 2007 to implement a maternal and child health project in Aceh Barat. The project, which ends in February, was implemented in 68 villages, addressing the health needs of over 8,500 women of reproductive age and 3,622 children under the age of five.

“HOPE’s health education efforts in Aceh Barat have strengthened morale in this community after the tsunami destroyed many lives. People truly value their health now more than ever. This project has strengthened health providers’ knowledge and skills in promoting and supporting improved immunization systems, and improving the quality of maternal health services while building the capacity of village health committees, health posts and other community-based organizations and individuals, including village midwives, health attendants and community health workers,” said Dr. Sheldon.

In Nagan Raya, HOPE’s Child-to-Child program, also sponsored by the Big Lottery Fund, has trained elementary school teachers on common infant, child and maternal health problems and desired health behaviors. The teachers in turn teach their fifth-grade students the same health lessons, which are then shared with siblings and other family members at home to improve health knowledge. The importance of early and exclusive breastfeeding, management of diarrhea, malaria treatment, growth monitoring and nutrition, acute respiratory infection, immunization and personal hygiene are among the topics covered at school.

Almost 90 percent of 143 elementary schoolsl in Nagan Raya implemented the program, reaching more than 2,600 fifth-grade students. This health education model was expanded to all elementary schools in Nagan Raya as decreed by the District Education Office.

Midwife training has had much success in teaching midwives how to handle problems in newborns including low-birth weight, respiratory infections and early signs of infection. HOPE trainers also educate midwives about exclusive breastfeeding and the necessity of delivering with a skilled birth attendant.

Project HOPE successfully trained over 100 midwives and 72 traditional birth attendants, vastly improving the chances of a healthy birth and the overall health of the mother and child.

“The value of the behavior changes in communities that received health education is immeasurable – women felt empowered and therefore children are impacted in positive ways as well,” said Dr. Sheldon.

About Project HOPE

Founded in 1958, Project HOPE (Health Opportunities for People Everywhere) is dedicated to providing lasting solutions to health problems with the mission of helping people to help themselves. Identifiable to many by the SS HOPE, the world’s first peacetime hospital ship, Project HOPE now provides medical training and health education, and conducts humanitarian assistance programs in more than 35 countries.

Boulder, Colo (PRWEB) January 12, 2012

Pharmaca Integrative Pharmacy, Inc., the nation’s first and largest chain of integrative pharmacies, announced the launch of its first annual 30 Day Weight-Management Challenge. The Challenge features 10 participants who will receive private consultations with Pharmaca practitioners, including nutrition and exercise advice, and a month’s supply of one of three healthy weight-management supplements.

Participants range from 27-year-old Caitlyn—who’s hoping to kick-start her plan to lose 15-20 pounds overall—to Michele, a 58-year-old who wants to lose upwards of 40 pounds to relieve chronic neck and back pain.

“I am not ready to let osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, two total knee replacements and two spinal fusions repress my abilities,” says Teresa, a 59-year-old participant from Boulder, Colo. “Weight loss will lessen the impact on my joints and may even lower my blood pressure. I know this opportunity is just the beginning of a lifestyle change—for the better!”

All 10 participants are committed to refining their diets, working out according to their practitioner’s recommendations and taking one of three of Pharmaca’s best-selling weight-management supplements: Natural Factors’ PGX, Genuine Health’s Lean+ Extra Strength and Natural Factors’ Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA).

“These are some of my favorite weight-management supplements, products that

our customers and practitioners have seen measurable results with,” says Don Summerfield, Pharmaca’s vice president of integrative medicine. “By providing different supplements to our participants, we’re hoping to show which supplements work best for different body types and lifestyles.”    

Participants have already met with their consulting practitioners for an initial weigh-in and consultation. These consultations will take place on a weekly basis, and participants will update followers on their progress at pharmaca.com.

Learn more about the practitioners, the supplements and the Challengers’ progress at pharmaca.com/30daychallenge.

Quality is the cornerstone of Rimmel’s business and there is plenty of innovation too. Nail polish that combines Lycra and micro minerals, for example, can offer you long lasting shine for up to 10 days and it will dry quicker than most brands on the market.

Buying online means that you can enjoy some massive savings when compared to heading to your local town or high street to make a purchase. In fact, you can enjoy prices as low as a third of the RRP and, by buying a few items at a time, you won’t even notice the additional shipping charge. With prices so low you can afford to try out a few different colours as well as stocking up on your favourites.
