LifeGuard Games has a new educational app for kids age 6-11!

ACU EPA project has developed an electronic asthma clinical decision support tool for the EHR platform. Currently it is pilot tested in 32 health centers using GE Centricity. We want to embed an asthma control screening tool. The ACT is free for children ages 4-11, but the tool has associated cost per use for ages 12 and up. We have been looking at the ATAQ, but I am unable to find copy of tool and if it is copyrighted and who to contact.  Is anyone using this tool or any other validated literacy screening tool for asthma control? All assistance valued.

Can anyone recommend a guide to cleaning up after pests that has detailed directions on how to clean and ideally doesn't suggest bleach? 

Thanks!

We work with several community asthma programs that provides in-home interventions through multi-year home visits for an underserved community. Many of the programs do report that families are lost to follow-up but some programs diligently track the children. Many of the children live in transient households – for example, a child could move up to move three times in one year by living with mother, father or grandparents; as a result the program will provide three sets of home visits, trainings and supplies.

ISAAC studies have commonly used age groups of 6-7 years and 13-14 years for describing the burden, why were other age groups not taken into account ? Is there any scientific justification for that? Some studies have also used age groups of 3-7 years, 8-14 years and 15-17 years to find out the difference in prevalence using ISAAC questionnaire as study tool.

In Asthma the system is filled with waste matter and mucus. Asthma is characterized by labored
breathing (dyspnea), wheezing with dry and painful coughing which is often due to an extreme
irritation of the mucous membranes in the nasal passages or bronchial tubes. The symptoms are
accompanied by constriction of the chest (bronchiolar spasm) and expectoration of mucus
(mucoid sputum). Acute Asthma can be controled with centain types of home made remedies.

I am a pharmacy student currently promoting a new New Medical Application for

return, we are kindling asking if you could answer the survey provided.
