Exploring The Feasibility Of Incorporating Sexual Education Into Routine Adolescent Office Visits, Holly A. Rankin, Alisa Losasso, Md, Beth I. Schwartz, Md

CwiC Posters

Preventative sexual education can reduce the negative health outcomes of sexual behavior in adolescent populations.1 The objective of this pilot study was to determine if sexual education can be delivered as a scripted five-minute module during a routine adolescent office visit in a manner that is non-disruptive of clinic flow and acceptable to both patients and providers.

• 85% of providers reported the intervention did not interrupt clinic flow

• 86% of patients reported the intervention to be appropriate and 92% of providers were satisfied overall with the intervention

These pilot data highlight that the incorporation of brief scripted sexual …

Image Processing Method And System For Analyzing A Multi-Channel Image Obtained From A Biological Tissue Sample Being Stained By Multiple Stains, Michael Barnes, Carlo Bifulco, Ting Chen, Alisa Tubbs

Technology Transfer - Patents

Systems and methods for automatic FOV selection in immunoscore computation that involve reading images for individual markers from an unmixed multiplex slide or single stain slides, and computing the tissue region mask from the individual marker image. The heat map of each marker is determined by applying the low pass filter on the individual marker image channel and selecting the top K highest intensity regions from the heat map as the candidate FOVs for each marker. The candidate FOVs from the individual marker images are merged together in the same coordinate system by either adding all of the FOVs together …

Barriers To Care Amongst Rural Indigenous Mayans In Guatemala’S Western Highlands, Nirali Butala Nov 2016

Barriers To Care Amongst Rural Indigenous Mayans In Guatemala’S Western Highlands, Nirali Butala

CwiC Posters

Information presented here is based on 5-week volunteering experience at Primeros Pasos clinic in the rural Palajunoj Valley outside the city of Quetzaltenango, Guatemala. Almost all of the patient population is rural, indigenous Quiche Maya. Guatemala has a relatively high GDP and patient-doctor ratio (1000:1) compared to its neighboring Latin American countries, but these resources are extremely localized to its capital, Guatemala City, where 70% of the country’s physicians work.

Only the wealthy are able to utilize private clinics and hospitals that are known to provide the highest quality care. At these clinics, patients pay out-of-pocket. Indigenous, rural communities typically …


The Public Health Crisis In Greece And Its Ties To A Failing Economy, Anna M. Carleen Nov 2016

The Public Health Crisis In Greece And Its Ties To A Failing Economy, Anna M. Carleen

CwiC Posters

In 2009 the Greek government admitted that the numbers it had been reporting to the European Union about its national budget deficit were artificially small. The deficit was actually huge, way larger than what the EU requires of member countries if they want to reap the benefits of being in this financial network. A benefit of being in the EU is that it makes it much easier for governments to take out large loans, because lenders trust that a member country will make good on its debts due to the security it has from being part of the union. This …

An Interactive Curricula Experience (Ice) For Latino Immigrant Health, Kevin Molyneux, Ellen Plumb, Md, Martha Langley Ankeny, Med

CwiC Posters

The Interactive Curricula Experience (iCE) is an educational platform intended for interactive education utilizing multiple forms of media. It is being utilized at Thomas Jefferson University (TJU) in various classes, among them Global Health.

One of the pertinent global-health-at-home topics at TJU relates to Latino immigrant health. Latino immigrants number more than 20,000 in Philadelphia. They are located throughout the city, although the highest concentrations are in North and South Philadelphia. With respect to health care, Latino immigrants are less likely to have a regular health care provider than non-immigrant Latinos.

Education to provide culturally sensitive care to Latino immigrants …

An Evaluation Of Risk Attitudes And Risk Tolerance In Emergency Medicine Residents, Nishad A. Rahman, Dimitrios Papanagnou, Md

CwiC Posters

An underlying issue to our current healthcare system is how decisions made in the emergency department affect patients. This is paramount for underserved populations, which are more likely to have poor physical and mental health, lack of primary care, greater use of health services, and be generally dissatisfied with their medical care.1,2 What should the emergency physician (EP) do for these patients?

These decisions are largely based upon individual risk tolerance. While risk is a indelible part of emergency medicine (EM), a risk profile of EM residents has not been compiled. Knowledge of risk taking tendencies among this niche of …
