FORT WORTH, Texas (PRWEB)

Heat-related injury and death continue to increase in association with extreme heat events provoked by climate change. Projections portend the escalation of this trend. (https://www.studiovidenda.com/)

Despite the well-established protection from heat offered by acclimation/acclimatization, most public health information sources advise people to avoid heat entirely to mitigate the risk of heat-related illness. “We have a primordial, powerful, easily accessed, cost-free, yet underutilized tool to increase thermal tolerance and reduce the incidence of heat-related medical events: heat,” says Dr. Donald Watenpaugh, senior author of the recently published article, “Reduce Heat-related Illness and Death with a Tool at Our Doorstep.”

(https://www.researchgate.net/publication/371409377_Reduce_Heat-related_Illness_and_Death_with_a_Tool_at_Our_Doorstep).

Dr. Watenpaugh and his co-author, Dr. Robert Carter III, offers the following two simple and effective public health recommendations:

1.    Do not altogether avoid exposure to heat. “Instructing people to avoid heat exposure completely negates their innate and protective ability to acclimate to the heat,” says Dr. Watenpaugh. “Such guidance increases the risk of heat-related illness or death if/when they experience unanticipated heat exposure from an air conditioning failure, power outage, or other causes,” says Dr. Carter.

2.    Adapt and publicize safe ways for the public to heat acclimate. “We must educate and empower people to safely protect themselves from heat-related illness using controlled and self-limited exposures to heat,” says Dr. Watenpaugh. “Such generalized guidance must emphasize individualization to physical and medical limitations,” says Dr. Carter.

About the Author

Dr. Robert Carter III is a Colonel in the U.S. Army, an expert in human performance and physiology, and an adjunct professor of Emergency Medicine at the University of Texas Health, San Antonio, Texas.

Dr. Donald Watenpaugh is an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Physiology and Anatomy, University of North Texas Health Science Center, Fort Worth, Texas, and the Department of Bioengineering, University of Texas at Arlington. He is the Chief Creative Officer for Studio Videnda. Dr. Watenpaug’s scientific mantra is to let the data decide the experimental outcome, and in the art world, he asserts: Let the data inspire and drive the artistic outcome.

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)

To mark the one-year anniversary of the US Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, healthcare law firm Nelson Hardiman LLP will present the webinar series Dobbs-One Year Later: Your Repro Regulatory Questions Answered. The first webinar in this series will be presented on Tuesday, June 27 beginning at 12 noon PDT.

When the Supreme Court overruled Roe v. Wade in the Dobbs decision on June 24, 2022, it denied the human right to abortion that has been precedent for decades and ended constitutional protections. Dobbs effectually gave each state the power to regulate abortion laws. As a result, in the past year, the healthcare landscape has become increasingly localized and complex to navigate. Simultaneously, the use of telehealth for medication abortion care (teleMAB) is increasingly significant and continues to grow as abortion providers think creatively about expanding access.

The series, Dobbs-One Year Later: Navigating Your Repro Regulatory Questions, will commence on June 27 with the webinar entitled “Understanding the Regulatory and Clinical Implications of Providing Reproductive Healthcare Services.” This initial webinar will cover the updates to the legal landscape for abortion providers, particularly focusing on telehealth for medication abortion, in the year post-Dobbs. We will give a broad overview of the legal frameworks that platforms, providers and healthcare practitioners must consider in order to ensure compliance with applicable state abortion and healthcare regulatory laws, including telehealth, scope of practice, and medication regulation.

The Dobbs-One Year Later series will be hosted by Founding Partner Harry Nelson and Of Counsel Natalie Birnbaum. Harry is regularly sought by many media outlets for his analysis of practical solutions to problems at the intersection of healthcare transformation, healthcare privacy, and regulatory compliance. Natalie works at the intersection of healthcare regulatory work, telehealth equity, reproductive rights, health, and justice. She frequently writes on the topic of telehealth for medication abortion for the American Health Law Association and owns a reproductive healthcare-focused policy consulting and legal advising firm, Repro Solutions PC.

There is no charge for this important and informative webinar. To register, please follow this link:

Please join us on June 27 as we analyze this important and timely issue that is critical to the healthcare industry and the human right to bodily autonomy which will most certainly be a defining issue in the 2024 elections.
