Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance Selects PlatformQ Health to Lead New Digital Educational Initiative to Address the Mental Health Crisis

Leave a comment

DBSA & PlatformQ Health

“Together, we aim to impact millions of patients and families through this initiative so DBSA participants, employer groups, payers, and the general public have easy access to education that improves care.”


BOSTON and CHICAGO (PRWEB)

The Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance (DBSA), the leading peer-directed national organization for people living with mood disorders, and PlatformQ Health, a premier provider of digital education for clinicians and patients across the therapeutic spectrum, are pleased to announce a new initiative to elevate the way clinicians diagnose and treat mental illness, and empower the millions of Americans who personally face conditions like depression and bipolar to make the best choices for their lives.

“We are thrilled to expand our partnership with PlatformQ Health to create more action-oriented mental health education,” shared Phyllis Foxworth, DBSA Advocacy Vice President. “Since our founding, DBSA has been committed to providing peer-based, recovery-oriented, empowering services and resources when people want them, where they want them, and how they want them. Partnering with PlatformQ Health allows us to leverage their outcomes-centered engagement platform for our education, and deliver convenient and accessible education to clinicians and people living with mental health conditions Together, we aim to impact millions of patients and families through this initiative so DBSA participants, employer groups, payers, and the general public have easy access to education that improves care.”

Over 21 million people in the U.S. live with mood disorders, and these conditions are associated with significant costs. It is estimated that $23 billion are lost in workdays and other workplace losses each year – and far more seriously, suicide is the second leading cause of death among individuals between the ages of 10 and 34, and the fourth leading cause of death among individuals between the ages of 35 and 54. More education is needed to begin turning these tides: peers need to understand the power of peer support, clinicians need to know how best to guide patients in the path toward recovery, and families facing mood disorders need to be able to recognize the symptoms and understand related issues to more readily support loved ones in achieving wellness.

This initiative launches on the heels of successful joint educational programs in Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) that focused on fostering better communication and shared decision-making between people living with MDD and their care teams.

“We live in a data-driven world, where measuring the impact of our efforts is considered key – but somehow, even with all the recent efforts to prioritize outcomes in our healthcare system, the impact of so much health education remains unevaluated,” explained Dr. Wendy Turell, Vice President of Outcomes and Analytics at PlatformQ Health, and member and past chair of the Research Committee at the Alliance for Continuing Education in the Health Professionals. “People facing depression need education that they can understand and apply. They need their doctors to be informed and ready to work together. We are proud to build on DBSA’s legacy of support for people facing mood disorders by creating education that makes changes at scale. Moreover, by evaluating our educational efforts over time, we will be able to see our impact on changes in knowledge, beliefs and behavior among HCP and patient learners.”

Following the initial program, PlatformQ Health supported DBSA’s work with the Milken Institute and released additional education for people living with MDD earlier this year. One of the many conclusions from this impactful study found that a majority of respondents experienced both depression and bipolar symptoms, challenging clinicians’ traditional practice of treating one or the other, and outlining a further need for professional education.

Whether you’re looking for traditional insurance coverage or a discount plan, Dental Insurance is your best resource


OVERLAND PARK, Kan. (PRWEB)

TopConsumerReviews.com recently gave a best-in-class 5 star rating to Dental Insurance, a leader among online providers of dental insurance plans.

Almost 75 million Americans don’t have dental insurance coverage provided by an employer or by the government. Many of these people pay for their dental costs out of pocket, but those expenses can add up quickly when a simple exam, cleaning, and x-ray can be $100 or more. Fortunately, there are a number of ways to get affordable dental care directly, with the same levels of coverage and options as are available through employers – often using the very same networks and dental professionals. This offers consumers a huge advantage when dental emergencies arise, protecting them from hefty bills in the thousands of dollars for a root canal, broken tooth, or other major issue.

“Whether you’re looking for traditional insurance coverage or a discount plan, Dental Insurance is your best resource,” according to Brian Dolezal of TopConsumerReviews.com, LLC. “There’s no other provider that explains your options so clearly, with an easy-to-use website that will connect you with plans from industry leaders like Delta Dental and Nationwide. Select up to 3 plans to compare and see which one is best for your coverage needs, keeping in mind each plan’s network and time between placing your order and the start date. Dental Insurance is part of Kelsey National Corporation, a reputable company with more than 50 years of experience and an ‘A+’ rating with the Better Business Bureau. Getting the right dental coverage can be overwhelming, but with Dental Insurance you’ll find exactly what you need in no time. We’re pleased to give this company our highest ranking among providers of Dental Insurance plans in 2019.”

FALLS CHURCH, Va. (PRWEB)

FDA and EU Inspections

The Mutual Recognition Agreement: What’s Next?

**An FDAnews Webinar**

Friday, Sept. 27, 2019, 1:30 p.m. – 3:00 p.m. EDT

https://www.fdanews.com/fdaeuinspect

Who’s that knocking on the door? The FDA … or someone else?

Don’t rule out ‘someone else.’ Under the new Mutual Recognition Agreement (MRA), investigators from any of the 28 EU member states have the right to inspect global drugmakers’ operations.

And foreign inspectors may be the least of the company’s concerns. Now that the MRA is fully implemented at last, companies face new issues including: pros and cons of relying on EU inspections, potential for increased efficiency across the board, and next steps as the U.S. and EU enter a new era of cooperation.

Compliance consultants Cynthia Schnedekar Esq. and Elizabeth (“Liz”) Oestreich Esq. are the guides for a 90-minute survey of the post-MRA world. Attendees will discover:


  • MRA Timeline: The Food and Drug Administration Safety and Innovation Act (FDASIA) of 2012 and what it has led to

  • Benefits so far: How inspectors are using each other’s inspections to maintain a risk-based approach … potential benefits for U.S. drug safety

  • And costs: How the MRA may complicate regulatory and compliance operations … which inspections FDA will continue to perform … which will go to EU member states

  • What’s next for: FDA capability assessments … possibility of duplicating the MRA model in other regions … potential impact of ‘Brexit’ on the MRA

Full implementation of the MRA only took place this July so there’s still lots to learn. If the organization sells drugs into EU nations — or anywhere in this interconnected world — one will want to mark the calendar for this timely presentation.

Interventional Pain Management Specialist Dr. Kaliq Chang with Atlantic Spine Center Offers Neck Pain Prevention Tips

Leave a comment


https://www.prweb.com/

Dr. Kaliq Chang

Poor posture is a leading culprit for musculoskeletal pain; it can result in strained neck muscles, tendons and ligaments.


WEST ORANGE, N.J. (PRWEB)

Don’t stick your neck out! At least, not for too long or too far, advises Kaliq Chang, MD, an interventional pain management specialist with Atlantic Spine Center, who says “poor posture is a leading culprit for musculoskeletal pain; it can result in strained neck muscles, tendons and ligaments.”

Some scientists call it “tech neck” or “text neck.”

The amount of force exerted by the head on the cervix of a typical adult looking down to text or read email on a mobile phone or iPad is about 60 pounds – equivalent to a small bag of cement or five average-sized bowling balls, says Dr. Chang, referring to calculations reported in the journal Surgical Technology International.

A San Francisco State University study published in 2018 in Biofeedback backs him up. Researchers indicate a “slouching posture” — head in a forward position and neck scrunched – for lengthy periods in front of a computer screen or other digital device can lead to headaches, muscle tension, fatigue, even eventual injury to the cervical vertebrae, which extend from the skull to the upper torso.

“The neck is a wondrous and complex network of cervical bones, joints, musculature and connective tissue working in balance with the shoulders to support and stabilize the head and provide movement and range of motion, enabling us to turn our head in almost any direction,” explains Dr. Chang. “Pushing the head forward and out of alignment for an extended time or engaging in activities involving repetitive or forceful movement or awkward positions puts undue strain on this system and can lead to neck and shoulder pain.”

Neck pain reportedly affects up to 20 percent of all Americans at some point in their lives, ranking among the top five or six disorders in the nation and impacting quality of life, Dr. Chang notes.

Of course, improper posture is not the only source of neck pain, he emphasizes. Injuries to neck muscles and soft tissue; degeneration of cervical disks due to aging; herniation of cervical discs; occipital bone spurs; infections and disease; obesity; and psychosocial factors like stress and depression can promote onset of neck pain, Dr. Chang says. The pain can take many forms, such as a sharp, stabbing sensation; a dull ache or soreness; burning feeling; stiffness; or pain that radiates to the head or shoulders.

With exception of accidents and falls, most neck pain is unrelated to emergent medical conditions and usually resolves on its own or with minimal treatment, Dr. Chang adds.

“However, patients should consult a physician, particularly a pain-management specialist, as soon as possible if pain:

  • Persists for more than a week or two and fails to respond to home remedies, such as ice to reduce swelling, moist heat to aid healing and over-the-counter pain medications.

  • Becomes severe for no apparent reason or radiates down arms or legs.

  • Makes it difficult to move the head.

  • Is accompanied by headaches, numbness, tingling, difficulty swallowing, or nausea.


Ongoing neck pain may be related to infections or diseases like meningitis, disorders of the cervical discs, head-and-neck cancers, heart disorders – even diabetes, as reported in 2019 by scientists from the University of Sydney, Dr. Chang says.

“Non-surgical approaches are always a first option for relieving neck pain when other serious problems are ruled out,” Dr. Chang says. “Physicians might recommend light physical therapy and neck exercises, medication, and epidural steroid injections if the problem is related to the cervical vertebrae.”

Some specialists are even harnessing the power of biologic substances, including injections of a patient’s own adult (mesenchymal) stem cells, to mitigate inflammation, relieve chronic musculoskeletal pain and repair orthopedic injuries.

Fewer than 5 percent of neck-pain patients will require surgery. For those who do, procedures can range from artificial disc replacement for a herniated cervical disc to various decompression procedures that remove tissue pressing against a nerve or limit motion between vertebrae, Dr. Chang says.

Of course, the most important step is prevention. Dr. Chang offers these tips to protect the neck:

  • Make lifestyle changes: stop smoking, lose weight, exercise regularly.

  • Don’t sit for extended periods; take breaks. Be mindful of your posture.

  • Adjust the computer screen to eye level.

  • Use just one pillow – not several – while sleeping; lie on your back, if possible.

  • Bend knees and keep back straight when lifting. Avoid heavy shoulder bags.

  • Stop constantly checking your mobile phone.
