Cra To Inform Health Related Research In Rural Oregon, Christina Jäderholm
Cra To Inform Health Related Research In Rural Oregon, Christina Jäderholm
OHSU-PSU School of Public Health Annual Conference
Background
To assess five rural Oregon counties’ readiness to take action towards conducting health-related research within their communities, we conducted a Community Readiness Assessment as a process towards reconciling research aims with community priorities and shared resources.
Results were used to guide OHSU’s clinical researchers with plans to implement an exercise-based pilot program for cancer survivors and their partners in Oregon’s rural counties.
Method
The Community Readiness Assessment (CRA) is a validated interviews-based tool for measuring attitudes, knowledge, beliefs and shared resources within communities; Here, as it relates to health-related research. The 36 open-ended questions were administered to 15 community …

An Intervention To Increase Detection Of Developmental Delays In Wic Programs, Mohadeseh Solgi, Julie A. Reeder, Sherri Alderman, Katharine E. Zuckerman
OHSU-PSU School of Public Health Annual Conference
Background: Low-income children are at risk for under-detection of developmental disabilities DD. WIC clinics see low-income children regularly in early childhood and could be an important source of referrals to developmental services.
Objectives: To increase the number of referrals to EI/ECSE from non-primary care settings such as WIC.
Methods: This was a site-randomized trial of an intervention to train WIC staff in early identification of DD’s, using CDC’s LTSAE developmental monitoring materials. 7 county WIC agencies in Oregon enrolled; 4 intervention agencies and 3 control agencies. The intervention consisted of an on-site, half-day training regarding signs of developmental delays, use …

Primary Preeclampsia In A Second Pregnancy: Comparing Outcomes To Illuminate Preeclampsia Etiology, Rebecca Parmenter, Abigail Newby-Kew, Anna Sandstrom, Jonathan Snowden
OHSU-PSU School of Public Health Annual Conference
Previous preeclampsia is a strong predictor of subsequent preeclampsia. There is a noted evidence gap regarding primary preeclampsia among parous women. We will use the Swedish Medical Birth Register to explore risk factors that may contribute to primary preeclampsia in parous women

Examining The Link Between Acculturation And Reproductive Autonomy Among Oregon Latinas: Work In Progress, Sara M. Diaz-Anaya
Examining The Link Between Acculturation And Reproductive Autonomy Among Oregon Latinas: Work In Progress, Sara M. Diaz-Anaya
OHSU-PSU School of Public Health Annual Conference
Authors: Sara Diaz-Anaya, Edlyn Lopez, & Blair Darney PhD, MPH.
Title
Examining the Link Between Acculturation and Reproductive Autonomy Among Oregon Latinas: Work in progress
Background
Reproductive autonomy is defined as the power a woman has over matters such as pregnancy, childbearing, and contraceptive use and is essential to human rights. Acculturation, or how much of the values, practices, and norms of a host culture an immigrant has adopted, may influence reproductive autonomy. The purpose of this study is to test whether acculturation is associated with reproductive autonomy among Oregon Latinas. We hypothesize that highly acculturated women will report …

COVID-19 Impact Survey for Filipinos in Oregon
Data about Filipino populations tend to be obscured when aggregated into the Asian and/or Asian and Pacific Islander category. Filipinos are hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic and yet there is little information about them. As a result, COVID-19 Impact Survey was developed for Filipinos in Oregon to better understand their needs arising from the COVID-19 crisis. It is modeled after the Massachusetts Department of Public Health’s COVID-19 Community Impact Survey. It has been translated into both English and Tagalog. After finalization of the survey, it has been piloted by National Alliance for …
Quarantine Ethics: From Past To Covid-19, Chrystal Barnes
Quarantine Ethics: From Past To Covid-19, Chrystal Barnes
OHSU-PSU School of Public Health Annual Conference
Quarantines have been a preventative measure for reducing communicable disease spread for centuries. The method of implementation can vary widely and to some extent requires some level of judgement from enforcing powers, often state police power. As such, historically, some quarantines have been unfairly enforced based on discriminatory practices. COVID-19 has brought about the most widespread and extended quarantine in U.S. history, which makes evaluating the ethics all the more critical. In addition, it is well established that COVID-19 impacts have disproportionately caused harm to populations, such as those who are of a low socioeconomic status and people of color. …

Community Readiness Assessment: How Ready Is Central Oregon To Foster Resilience, Christina Jäderholm
OHSU-PSU School of Public Health Annual Conference
Overview
Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) has devastating human impact and a major financial burden on the health care system. Fostering resilience in the individual and on the community-level to address this issue is a priority for the Central Oregon communities.
To measure community capacity to address resilience, the Community Readiness Assessment (CRA) was chosen. The assessment results have presented an opportunity for the communities to guide their own efforts through collaboration and reorganizing resources.
Method
The CRA is a validated tool for assessing community capacity. The CRA consists of 36 open-ended survey questions about the community’s attitudes, knowledge, and beliefs …
