School-Based Telemedicine Enhanced Asthma Management (SB-TEAM)

- How to Read a Study Record
This project aims to improve guideline-based asthma care using enhanced communication and screening tools, telemedicine and directly observed therapy of preventive medications in city schools. Web-based screening will be used to identify children with persistent or poorly controlled asthma and to send reports to the child's primary care doctor. Children in the SB-TEAM group will receive a telemedicine asthma assessment in school and be prescribed a daily preventive asthma medication to be taken through school-based directly observed therapy. The overall aim of this study is to evaluate the use of the SB-TEAM intervention for improving guideline based care, enhancing adherence to effective preventive medications and at reducing morbidity among young urban children with asthma.
Pediatric Asthma
Other: School-Based Telemedicine Enhanced Asthma Management
Other: Enhanced Usual Care

Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Single Blind (Outcomes Assessor)
Primary Purpose: Health Services Research
|Official Title:
|School-Based Telemedicine Enhanced Asthma Management: A Randomized Control Trial Using Novel Technology to Improve Preventive Asthma Care
- Average number of days without asthma symptoms (Symptom Free Days) [ Time Frame: Average number of days, over 2 weeks, during peak winter season (November-March) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]The primary outcome measure is asthma morbidity between groups. We will measure asthma morbidity by looking at the average number of days without asthma symptoms (symptom free days) over 2 weeks, during each follow-up assessment during the peak winter season (November-March). Symptom free days are defined as 24 hour periods of no asthma symptoms including, coughing, wheezing, tightness in the chest or shortness of breath. The number of symptom free days will be reported by the child's caregiver.

|Assigned Interventions
Experimental: School-based Telemedicine Enhanced Asthma Mangement Group
We will use a web-based system to assess asthma severity or control and will send a symptom report to the child's primary care physician (PCP). Children randomized to the SB-TEAM group, will receive a telemedicine visit in the school health office at the start of the school year to provide an initial asthma assessment. The telemedicine provider will deliver brief asthma education and referrals to community resources, and will send a guideline-based preventive medication prescription electronically to a local pharmacy. The pharmacy will deliver the medications to home and school, and the school nurse will administer the medication as directly observed therapy throughout the school year. Follow-up telemedicine assessments will occur twice during the study period. These follow-up visits will focus on assessment of control, assessment of ongoing triggers or co-morbid conditions, and brief asthma education.
|Other: School-Based Telemedicine Enhanced Asthma Management
Active Comparator: Enhanced Usual Care Group
Children randomized to the enhanced usual care group will receive a symptom assessment using national care guidelines, a recommendation for appropriate preventive medications, and asthma education materials. We will use the web-based system to send a symptom report to the child's PCP with guideline-based recommendations for preventive care. We will provide systematic feedback to the family and providers at the same intervals as in the SB-TEAM group's telemedicine visits, by prompting providers to use care guidelines, and caregivers to schedule recommended follow-up visits with the PCP.

The anticipation is over - the Winter Olympics 2014 in Sochi is finally here. And what an opening week it's been so far: from disgruntled journalists tweeting hilarious pictures of their less-than ideal hotel rooms (try upside down toilet seats, holes in ceilings and tap water that runs straight from the toilet) to Jenny Jones taking her place on the podium to collect Team GB's first ever medal on snow. The reports from Mother Russia are coming thick and fast - but if you want a peak behind the scenes, get your Instagram on. Here's our pick of the best accounts to follow during the Games:
1. Jenny Jones. (No-brainer.)
She's the snowboarder who has taken Sochi 2014 by storm already, winning bronze in the women's snowboard slopestyle and making British history. She's also achingly cool about it.
2. Team GB
From Olympic ring-themed manicures to candid celebration shots, follow these guys for the official behind the scenes low-down.
3. Belle Brockhoff
Not only is she really - no, REALLY - good at her event, snowboard cross, but she also came out publically as a direct response to Russia's anti-gay propaganda, and now she's standing up for the rights of LGBT athletes on a global scale. And she posts videos like this to Instas.
4. Lolo Jones
You may remember her from the summer Olympics when she hot-footed it down the hurdles track. Now she's back - on ice. After being recruited following London 2012, she's now a fully-fledged member of the bobsled team and loving it. Follow now please.
5. Johnny Quinn
Is it a(n angry) bird? A plane? Is it THE HULK? No, it's US bobsledder Johnny Quinn smashing through his bathroom door with nothing more than his bare hands. What a man, and what an Instagram account.
6. Brother and sister Havard and Hege Bokko
They're Norweigan speed-skaters. Who are, with reference to the pictoral evidence below, awesome.
- @HAVARDBOKKO and @HEGEBOKKO
7. Jamie Anderson
Jamie's snowboarding profile will make you dizzy - literally. Her GoPro headcam videos and beautiful action shots are a must-see.
8. Julia Mancuso
As a seasoned Olympic medallist (she won gold in the giant slalom at the 2006 Winter Olympics, and silver in both the downhill and combined at 2010 Winter Olympics), Julia knows the ropes. And posts absolute corkers like this.
9. Charlotte Gilmartin
Our very own Team GB speed skater has given us insider peeks into how competitors use their down time in Sochi (more competing in the games room by all accounts) and this absolute gem of the Opening Ceremony - from an athlete's perspective. Brilliant.
10. Jamie Greubel
She does this:

Since the late 1990s, renewables have begun an era of strong growth in the United States, albeit from a small base. The amount of electricity produced from wind in particular began to increase, owing to advances in technology as well as favorable policies. Wind power electricity generation increased at a compounded annual growth rate of more than 20 percent from 1997 and 2006 and of more than 30 percent from 2004 to 2006 (EIA, 2008a). Solar photovoltaics (PV) have also seen similar growth rates in generation capacity in the United States. In 2008, non-hydropower renewables accounted for 3.4 percent of total electricity generation, up from 2.5 percent in 2007 (EIA, 2009). More details on the electricity capacity and the generation contributions from individual renewables are presented below in this chapter.
The generation of electricity from renewables has increased in part because of the effects of state-based policies adopted during the restructuring of many domestic electricity markets. One prominent policy mechanism for increasing the level of

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - One question to be answered in tomorrow's election in Oklahoma is how large the win will be for Republican John McCain.
The Republican nominee is widely expected to easily defeat Democrat Barack Obama in the Sooner state - the question is - by how much.
Republican officials are predicting either Utah or Oklahoma will provide McCain his biggest margin of victory.
Polls indicate Oklahoma's U.S. Senate race figures to be closer than the presidential contest although incumbent Republican Jim Inhofe is given the edge over Democrat Andrew Rice.
Independent Stephen Wallace is the third candidate in the race.
Four incumbent Republicans and one Democrat were favored to win re-election to their congressional seats.
There are also two Corporation Commission races on the state ballot and four state questions.
Early voting continues from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. today at election boards in the all 77 counties.
Polls open at 7 a.m. and close at 7 p.m. tomorrow.

Now the pastavores are getting in on the large-format action. Beginning Monday, Left Bank chef Laurence Edelman is busting out his springform pan and cooking up the Italian baked-pasta showstopper known as a timballo (or timpano, if youre a fan of the 1996 film Big Night). It feeds eight to fourteen, costs $65 per person (salad, sautéed greens, gelati, and pie included), and requires three days notice plus pants with an elastic waistband. The gigantic things available to go, too.

Hi there...just wanted to share this piece of info with you guys...the show Hitler Didi has been directly inspired from the movie 'Jeevan Dhara' where Rekha played exactly the same role as Rati. In the movie Rekha was the sole breadwinner of an extended family...and the good news is that the male lead protagonist did not have the role currently enacted by Rishi but it was actually that of some very rich boss portrayed by none other than Rakesh Roshan at that time.
Rishi is currently playing the role of Ammol Palekhar who in the movie (if I'm not mistaken) used to secretly love Rekha's sister who was actually a widow. There is another guy who fell for Rekha in the movie and she kind of reciprocated the feeling until she discovered that the sister apparently loved the same fellow�.and there goes Rekha giving up her love for dear sister and was back to her resolve of carrying on with her trials and tribulations to cater for the family's needs�(may be the CVs won't add the second character and have Rishi's role combined as the two characters from the movie just to make it simpler�.well I'm not sure though�.merely my POV)�
.Anyway the movie had a great ending�Rekha eventually got married to the rich boss�( A review for you regarding Jeevan Dhara�For all those who like Hitler Didi�.A Must watch!!�)That movie is absolutely brilliant due to its utmost simplicity and excellent enactment of each cast not forgetting that Rekha was of course the main USP of the movie�We don't get to see such kind of movies nowadays..*sigh*'��Rati is doing full justice to the role played by Rekha�.Absolutely Superb acting by Rati�Way to go Girl!!
In the movie the role played by Rakesh Roshan though significant was quite minimal�.I'm sure the CVs would come up with some exciting and better ideas to unfold the storyline of Hitler Didi with a bit more of extra romance in store for Indira in the show�.
Well guys for those who are worried about Rishi being the main male lead; rest assured! The latter is way too weak to carry even a lighted matchstick opposite Rati. (Rishi does not even stand a chance!! He is sadly lacking in screen presence)
Now the big question is WHO would be the chosen one to hold the candle or rather the torch for our Intensely strong Indu? ...Keep the mind guessing during the wait!!��..

Unfortunate I didn't see the movie so I can't comment on that
Rati pandey has a confident in herself and her ability to portray such character in the end she is queen of expression, and for the expected hero and since am ARTI fans I can't stop thinking about ARJUN to share her small screen again

CAPE CORAL, Fla. - Vandals trashed several businesses at a Cape Coral strip mall.
It happened on Del Prado Boulevard South.
Over the weekend, vandals spray painted the wall back of several businesses. A Cuban restaurant's delivery truck was also vandalized. One of the businesses affected said the building was just painted over last week.
There's no surveillance cameras behind the building, so the vandals were not caught on tape.

Woman shot on Sea Island golf course
Updated On: May 20 2013 03:23:20 PM EDT
A woman on a Sea Island golf course Sunday morning was hit in the stomach by a bullet man who says he was out shooting squirrels, according to the Glynn County Sheriff's Office.
Glynn County police say Edward George Johnson (pictured, below), who lives on Forest Road in Ocean Forest, called 911 about 11 a.m. to say he accidentally shot someone.
Authorities found Jane Prendergast, 70, of Sea Island, near the green of the fifth hole with a gunshot wound to her stomach.
Police say she was shot once with a .22-caliber rifle. She underwent surgery for her wounds and was in intensive care on Sunday afternoon.
Johnson, 65, was charged with one count of reckless conduct. He was released after posting $911 bond.

Remember, the British Embassy receives its budget from the Foreign and Commonwealth Office – a government department paid for by taxes. Our Embassy in Washington D.C. alone has 21 Twitter profiles, 7 Facebook pages, a Tumblr, 3 Vine Accounts, 6 Instagram accounts, 2 Pinterest pages, 4 Huffington Post blogs, a Storify channel, a Visual.ly account, a Google Circle, a Flickr, a YouTube channel, and incredibly, a Buzzfeed Community page. That's FIFTY in total. Think of the manpower it must take to run the 'UKinUSA Buzzfeed community page' alone. With the kind of unique, insightful content such as these pieces taken from the page. And yes, these are all real, UK Government-funded articles: And it seems the Embassy is even aware of how superfluous some of its own activities are. The first article it ever posted on Buzzfeed is called: The article includes taxpayer funded activities such as: "Host a ping pong match between Ambassador Westmacott and NBC's Chuck Todd"; "Show our pride at DC's Capital Pride Parade"; "Rock a Comic-Con"; and even... "Join Buzzfeed!" Talk about meta-profligacy.

Peterson: Back Injury "Not a Big Deal"Posted by on September 24, 2009 – 4:03 pm
Vikings RB Adrian Peterson appeared on Wednesday's injury report as a limited participant with a "back" listed under the injury column. That development likely caused some uneasiness for Vikings fans as their team prepares to open the home portion of the schedule with a game against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday.
But, Peterson said during his press conference on Thursday that his back injury was "not a big deal." Those are encouraging words for the Vikings.
Following practice on Thursday, Vikings Head Coach Brad Childress did not provide an update on Peterson's status, or the status of any other players on Wednesday's injury report, saying an update will come when the team's daily injury report is released this afternoon.
Today's injury report has not been filed but we'll let you know as soon as that happens. The report will be released later than usual each day because the 49ers are obviously practicing on the west coast and won't wrap up until late afternoon CT.

Does anyone listen to CDs anymore?
Denon just announced a new network audio player, the DNP-720AE ($499) that streams music from a variety of online services, your own PC and your iDevice.
The new player, about the size of a Blu-ray player, connects to the web via Ethernet or Wi-Fi. It joins a host of other recent AirPlay-compatible machines now hitting the market in it's ability to channel tunes directly from a user's iPhone, iPod, etc, wirelessly.
If you'd rather get at content directly from a NAS drive or your PC, the unit also is DLNA certified, allowing streaming from other DLNA products, including may Android tablets and smartphones.
Among the network music services it offers are Rhapsody, Napster and Pandora. A USB port permits access to music from portable drives. The news release doesn't mention any internet radio services, so hopefully that's something Denon can think about for a firmware update.
The unit can be easily integrated into a large control or distributed music system and controlled via IP by systems from Control 4, Crestron, AMX, URC, Savant and RTI.
While it comes with a handy remote, Denon also provides a free control app via the iTunes store.

Burmese Roots and Mass(achusetts) Branches
A series of five talks at Smith in fall 2014
Buddhist meditation has become extremely popular in recent years, not just in traditional Buddhist settings, but studied by neuroscientists and practiced as Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction in your local schools. Few people realize, however, that the mass mindfulness movement is a recent Burmese development, the ideal counterpart to the "modern" forms of religion that were being brought to them by their colonial rulers and colonial education systems. This modern form of Buddhism was rational and scientific, the goals not restricted to the monastics (i.e., open to laity), not consistent with ritual practice, belief in spirits, demons, or magic, and ultimately founded on the psychological principles of an individual, inner science: meditation. Interesting, of course, is that this so-called "individual" meditation practice was rooted in an entire people's resistance to colonialism -- it was a "mass" meditation movement dominated by lay Buddhists and very successful in uniting disparate Burmese peoples in their opposition to colonialism.
Nearly 100 years later, Western seekers of awakening from the 1960's and onward discovered this rational, scientific, and individual practice of meditation. After years of ardent practice, they brought these traditions back to the West and founded some of the most important Buddhist meditation centers in America -- here in Massachusetts. Ramp forward a few more years, and several clinical psychologists take these practices out of the meditation center and into medical schools. . . and we have the birth of mindfulness-based stress reduction -- a new "Mass meditation movement", again centered here in Massachusetts.
This fall Smith College hosts a series of talks, Mindfulness: Burmese Roots and Mass(achusetts) Branches. We will explore the social and religious origins of the modern mindfulness movement as well as some issues that contemporary practitioners are raising about Western developments that are perhaps quite divergent from their Burmese origins. Please join us for this stimulating lecture series.

Religion Department hosts Wayne A. Meeks, William Allan Neilson Professor, 2010-2011
Wayne A. Meeks is Woolsey Professor of Biblical Studies Emeritus in the Department of Religious Studies, Yale University, where he taught from 1969 until 1999. He was Chairman of the Department 1972-75, Acting Chairman 1978-79, 1982-83, and Director of the Division of the Humanities of the University 1988-91. Earlier, he taught at Indiana University 1966-69 and Dartmouth College 1964-65, and before that he was a campus pastor in Memphis, Tennessee, for the Presbyterian Church. He has served as president of the two leading professional societies in his field, the Society of Biblical Literature (1985) and Studiorum Novi Testamenti Societas (2004-5). He holds an honorary doctorate from the University of Uppsala and is a fellow of the British Academy and of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He is best known for his publications on the writings of the apostle Paul and on the Fourth Gospel, for his investigation of the social history of earliest Christianity, and for work on the formation of early Christian morality.
In addition to three public talks, Professor Meeks will also participate in a special Kahn Institute project, Through a Glass Darkly: Reading the New Testament in a Postmodern World. The Kahn Project is organized by Religion faculty Joel Kaminsky, Suleiman Mourad, and Vera Shevzov.
The three public talks are:
Monday, September 27:
The metaphor so familiar in religious and even in political discourse, "The New Testament tells us...," or "The Bible teaches...," conceals complex strategies. What do we mean when we claim that a text "speaks" with authority? How does a text get to be sacred? Communities may be created by sacred texts—but sacred texts evolve in communities. What is the social and cultural process by which this dialectic works? Professor Wayne Meeks will explore the complex interplay of religious text and community in this first lecture in the Neilson Professor series.
Monday, September 27, 2010 • 4:30 pm • Neilson Browsing Room, Neilson Library, Smith College • Free and open to the public.
Monday, October 18:
The earliest followers of Jesus struggled to find appropriate images to say who Jesus was—to themselves and to others. This was a self-involving process, for it was at the same time a struggle for the identity of a new movement. It was at heart an interpretive process, both in the broad sense that the work of forming an identity always interprets the world and simultaneously interprets one's own being in it, and in the specific sense that sacred texts and traditions about their meaning were centrally involved. In this second lecture in the Neilson Professor series, Wayne Meeks will discuss this process and explore how comparing it with other movements of the time, both within Judaism and in the wider culture of the Mediterranean basin, helps us to understand it better.
