Evaluating Pi Angle Efficacy Against Established Cephalometric Angular Parameters, Sumit Bohra

Annual Research Symposium

Cephalometrics is a cornerstone of orthodontic diagnosis. Numerous angularmeasurements are used to assess the anteroposterior jaw relation include the ANB angle, Betaangle, Yen angle, and W angle. However, these have limitations, leading to the development of thePi angle. Our study aimed to evaluate the predictability of the Pi angle in a South Indian populationand compare it with other established antero-posterior dysplasia indicators such as the ANB angle,W angle, Yen angle, and Beta angle. This comparison is crucial for determining the most accuratemethod for assessing sagittal skeletal discrepancies.

Translation Of Collaborative Skills From Undergraduate Interprofessional Education Curriculum To The Workplace: Results Of A Pilot Program, Erin Choice, Phd, Cscs, Shelene Thomas, Pt, Dpt, Edd, Gcs, Fnap

Collaborative Healthcare: Interprofessional Practice, Education and Evaluation (JCIPE)

Background

Interprofessional education (IPE) has become an increasingly necessary component of healthcare and health science curricula (Institute of Medicine, 2015; World Health Organization, 2010). However, the longitudinal impact of IPE and students’ ability to transfer knowledge and skills from the classroom to the workplace remains unknown (Breitbach et al., 2020). Training future healthcare providers (i.e., physical therapists, occupational therapists, exercise scientists) to work in interprofessional (IP) teams should arguably begin at the undergraduate (UG) level, rather than graduate level, in order to improve effective translation of skills to the workplace (Breitbach et al., 2020; Cooper et al., 2001; Murdoch et …

“Of all the forms of inequality, injustice in health care is the most shocking and inhumane.” – Martin Luther King

Health outcomes and life expectancy in the United States of America differ substantially based on race. For example, people of color are more likely to die of cardiovascular disease or stroke; more likely to have diabetes; and have higher infant and maternal mortality rates as compared to their white counterparts (Frieden, 2013). Achieving health equity is a key focus of Healthy People 2030 (HHS, 2013), which prioritizes addressing social determinants of health, including access to timely, high-quality healthcare and effective …
