E-027 Matricidal cavernous aneurysms: a multicenter case series
Conclusion Matricidal aneurysms require careful consideration and planning. The restricted anatomy of the cavernous sinus can make successful execution of endovascular interventions difficult. Direct elastic compression of the parent artery does not respond to angioplasty and stenting the way that atherosclerotic stenosis does. Because of this, planning for possible parent vessel sacrifice is important. Abstract E-027 Table 1 Intended Treatments and Outcomes n Intended Treatment Failed Treatment (rate) All Patients 37 10 (27%) Flow Diversion 18 5 (28%) Parent Vessel Sacrifice 11 With Bypass 4 2 (50%) Without Bypass 7 0 ...

Millennials Struggling to Care for Aging Baby Boomer Parents Call for Better Paid Leave
When Oniqa Moonsammy, 33, brought her uncle home from the hospital in early February following his stroke late last year, she planned to help her mother care for the 62-year-old as he regained his strength, figured out how to brush his own teeth again and managed his medications. But when they opened the door to the Brooklyn, N.Y., home her uncle shared with his father, Moonsammy saw her grandfather slumped in a chair. He, too, was having a severe stroke. Moonsammy used to work five days a week as a hostess at a restaurant in Brooklyn and often spent time with her boyfriend or went to bars with friends. Now her life revolv...

Projected Costs of Informal Caregiving for Cardiovascular Disease: 2015 to 2035: A Policy Statement From the American Heart Association.
CONCLUSIONS: The burden of informal caregiving for patients with CVD is significant; accounting for these costs increases total CVD costs to $616 billion in 2015 and $1.2 trillion in 2035. These estimates have important research and policy implications, and they may be used to guide policy development to reduce the burden of CVD on patients and their caregivers.

In Alzheimer's Disease, Caregiving May Be Just As Trying As the Disease Itself
When most of us think of Alzheimer's disease, our first thought isn't usually of the quiet caregiver alongside the patient, devoting their time to helping someone living with the disease. But caring for someone with Alzheimer's disease is often a full-time job, taking its toll on the caregiver. According to AARP and the National Alliance for Caregiving, the "typical" family caregiver is a 49-year-old woman who takes care of a relative. Nearly 25 percent of America's caregivers are millennials (adults aged 18 to 34) and are more likely to be female than male. In fact, 66 percent of all caregivers are women, and female care...

Zimbabwe Needs SLPs in Public Hospitals
Zimbabwe desperately needs speech-language pathologists, according to the Africa Health Network in an article on Voice of America. State-owned hospitals and other public health organizations—especially those in the capital city of Harare—can’t keep SLPs employed. Government officials say this occurred primarily because of low salaries. “Right now there is not a single speech therapist working in public service in Zimbabwe,” says Michele Angeletti, country representative of Christian Blind Mission. This was confirmed by the permanent secretary in the Ministry of Health and Child Care, Dr. Gerald Gwinji, who says t...

Needs of Internally Displaced Women and Children in Baghdad, Karbala, and Kirkuk, Iraq
Conclusions The vulnerability of this population is great, and the emotional trauma of multiple displacements, kidnapping and deaths from intentional violence is great. While some aid is reaching families, much more is needed. Though Iraq is a middle income country, reaching the IDPs in central Iraq will take much more in international assistance than is currently being received. Unfortunately, at this time of great need, assistance is being cut back throughout the region because of lack of funding.10 The local civil society organizations which have sprung up in many locations to assist IDPs, offer an avenue for targeting ...

The impact of minimum wages on population health: evidence from 24 OECD countries
This study examines the relationship between minimum wages and several measures of population health by analyzing data from 24 OECD countries for a time period of 31  years. Specifically, I test for health effects as a result of within-country variations in the generosity of minimum wages, which are measured by the Kaitz index. The paper finds that higher levels of minimum wages are associated with significant reductions of overall mortality rates as well as in the number of deaths due to outcomes that have been shown to be more prevalent among individuals with low socioeconomic status (e.g., diabetes, disease of the circ...

How The GOP's Health Plan Shifts The Burden To Family Caregivers
There are two words missing in the 100-plus pages of the American Health Care Act, which narrowly passed the House on Thursday without a single Democratic vote: “family caregivers.” It’s a shame, because the trickle-down effects of the bill ― should it pass the Senate ― would swell the ranks of the nation’s 43.5 million unpaid and untrained family members who sacrifice portions of their own lives and livelihoods to spare their loved ones being kicked to the curb. Many aspects of the Obamacare repeal uniquely target older Americans. But there’s one in particular that threatens to ...
