Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology Posters

Goals of Project

1. Better recognition of Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) as it relates to our poor maternal morbidity and mortality statistics/outcomes
2. Better trauma-informed education surrounding recognition of red flag signs/symptoms for House Staff/Ob-Gyn rotation students
3. Better paring of patients with resources both in the clinic setting & postpartum

BACKGROUND

• Cervicalgia, or chronic neck pain, remains an understudied and undertreated comorbid condition in patients with headache disorders that benefits from both pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic treatment profiles.

• Cervicogenic headaches present a significant global healthcare burden, with estimates projecting up to 4.1% of the global population and 20% of headache complaints are attributed to cervicalgia (Fernandez et al. 2020).

• What is the global demographic, treatment, and migraine preventive profile of cervicalgia in patients with either concurrent migraine (CM) or tension-type (CT) headaches?

Purpose: Subjective cognitive decline (SCD), or perceived decline in cognition, is a precursor to mild cognitive impairment, a prodrome of Alzheimer’s disease. SCD’s predictive utility is limited as it is impacted by multiple psychosocial factors. Expectations regarding aging among older adults have been linked to self-efficacy and health-related outcomes; however, their relationship with SCD is unknown. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to investigate the relationships between older adults’ aging expectations regarding physical, mental, and cognitive health, and SCD.

Methods: An online survey of community-dwelling adults aged 65 years or older (n=582, M(SD)=71.36(4.80)) with no history of dementia …

Longitudinal Monitoring Of Gait Parameters For Lower Limb Prosthetic Users With Physical Therapy Using Video-Based Gait Analysis, Alisha Agarwal, Bs, Anthony Cimorelli, Cpo, R. James Cotton, Md, Phd

Alpha Omega Alpha Research Symposium Posters

Introduction

Gait training in physical therapy is a common standard of practice for new lower limb prosthetic users. Progress is typically assessed through functional outcome measures such as the 10-meter or 6-minute walk tests1. While these tests measure walking speed and endurance, they fall short of capturing gait quality or quantifying gait parameters which literature shows to be of therapeutic value 2,3. Routine access to quantitative gait assessment could provide clinicians with benchmarks to optimize treatment interventions. Traditional gait analysis systems require specialized equipment making them very resource-intensive and inconvenient to operate. Using human pose estimation techniques, we have developed …

The Effectiveness Of Jeffwlp For Weight Loss And General Nutritional Knowledge In Obese Patients, Scott Kozarsky, Ba, Olivia Ackley, Bs, Cynthia Cheng, Md, Phd

Alpha Omega Alpha Research Symposium Posters

PURPOSE: The increasing prevalence of obesity urgently requires effective management strategies. This study evaluates the effectiveness of Jefferson Weight Loss Program (JeffWLP), a trained medical student-delivered health education program in a predominantly African-American patient cohort.

METHODS: A randomized controlled trial was performed enrolling 30 patients with an average socioeconomic status of 5.8 (10 maximum). The intervention group (n=18) completed JeffWLP, a low-cost, 12-week health coaching program combining education sessions with graded step exercises. The control group (n=12) received usual care. Mean baseline age, BMI, and General Nutritional Knowledge Questionnaire (GNKQ) scores were: 46±13 years, 38±5, and 14.7±1.9 (maximum score=17) respectively. …
