Abstract:
Use of drones like technology is dated back to the 200 BC, when a bird-shaped artifact named The Egyptian Saqqara bird was developed, which had the wingspan of 180 mm and a length of 150mm. As the time goes by, that old era idea is progressively developed into currently present highlyefficient drone technology which is serving various functions.Its application is rangedfrom various military purposes to the many crucial civilian applications such as weather monitoring and aerial medical supply.In underdeveloped and developing countries, the availability of roads is crucial for medical supplies such as medicines and vaccines. Air transportation, such as helicopter is much costly and not affordable. The success story of drones around environmental sciences and ecology make us realize that they can be employed in the field of public health as a consumable medical carrier. A significant strength of drones’ utility is its ability to reduce the travel time behind diagnosis and treatment. Drones considered to be a cost-efficient substitute for road transport in hard to reach areas. They can also be used for the transportation of blood from the blood bank to the site of its need, and specimens from the areas with difficult accessibility to laboratories in nearby cities. Medical drones can transport essential drugs such as anti-venom and post-exposure vaccines for dog bite and snake bites and avoid causalities.Various disaster management and relief operations can be assisted by drones to rescue the victims and the delivery of essential consumables.Similarly, biomedical drones reduce the time for organ transportation from the site of its harvest to the location of transplantation.Drones equipped with AED can provide visual feedback and help a bystander in cardiopulmonary resuscitation of the cardiac arrest patient.The role of drones in pandemic like COVID-19 is being evaluated, and studies are going on to provide maximum facilities with minimum time and chances of spreading infection. However, the usage of drones needs skilled staff and proper infrastructure. People who are residing in the areas of previous military drone attacks having a fear of drones and suffering from various mental disorders. Medical drones may be mistakenly considered as military drones, hence can be attacked by armed forces. Moreover, being an emerging technology, various laws and regulations are being evolved and are still in developmental phase.

In December 1984, I started working at the Entomology Laboratory of the Superintendence of Public Health Campaigns - SUCAM, in the municipality of Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil. The primary objective of this federal institution is the control of vectors, prevention, and treatment of rural endemic diseases. Consequently, we attended classes and courses on the taxonomy of disease vectors, particularly those belonging to the Diptera order, which encompassed the primary disease vectors of that moment, namely anopheline mosquitoes, culicids, and phlebotomine sandflies, responsible for malaria, yellow fever, dengue, Zika, chikungunya, and leishmaniases, respectively

Abstract:
Acute diarrhea of infec­tious etiology, referred to gastroenteri­tis and is associated with clinical signs and symptoms including: nausea, vomiting, abdomi­nal pain and cramps, bloating, flatulence, fever, passage of bloody stools, tenesmus, and fecal ur­gency disorders [10]. Diarrheal illness is a problem worldwide, with substantial regional variation in the prevalence of specific pathogens [8]. In fact, Infectious diarrheal diseases, are the second leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide and can cause real public health problems. Such diarrhea was studied as a medical disorder, in a 3 year period, 2017-2020, in Transylvania region from Romania. It was found 3577 number of cases, almost during July to August. The case incidence for the disease arrived at 65%, in the entire summer season. The data were transmitted by 12 district Sanitary Polices, to the Public Health Center. This all were mostly diagnosed by the territorial family doctors and more than 50% , have need some days of hospitalization, because of several disease disorders. For this disorders it was used a specific adequate fluid and electrolyte replacement as key of the treatment, to managing diarrheal illnesses. Even so, 3 children under 5 year’s age died, because of severe complications. Organic failed was estimate to be the cause of their deaths. Clinical and epidemiological evaluation defined the severity and type of this illnesses. The detected infectious etiology for the acute diarrhea, where determined in authorized Microbiology laboratories, and there were identified: Shigella spp, Salmonella spp, Campylobacter spp, Yersinia spp, Rotavirus, Giardia. Most number of cases appeared in children in 63%, followed by elderly or adult people in 17% each, all data as quantified number of determined infectious diarrheas. Acute diarrheal illness had to be considered a major public health issue, against which control efforts are needed. Public health surveillance of infectious acute diarrhea, includes obligatory strategies of infection control. Good hygiene, hand washing, safe food preparation, and access to clean water are key factors in preventing diarrheal illness

Abstract:
This research sought to ascertain the extent to which providing public sponsored health insurance (PSHI) to previously uninsured Mexican-American Hispanics improves health outcomes among those requiring ongoing treatment to control diabetes. Prior research utilizing insurance access theory; access, equity, and health outcome interrelationship theory; health affordability theory; and financial and resource burden theory suggests the uninsured receive less care than the insured, with delayed treatment, leading to chronic conditions. This research tested each of those major theoretical constructs into a blended conceptual framework based on the notion that providing health insurance helps alleviate the disabling effects of diabetes among this population. This study used an unobtrusive, longitudinal, one group pretest-posttest design. Research questions were designed to measure the strength of the relationship between PSHI and patient health outcomes using physical examination data, laboratory results, and diagnosis of 712 diabetic patients with 5,300 medical visits over 3 years before and after enrolling for PSHI. Logistic regression was used to analyze data related to age, gender, time enrolled in PSHI, and service location relative to health outcomes. Findings support the theories that accessibility increases with the provision of health insurance but also show that health outcomes do not improve after enrollment in a PSHI. This study contributes to the body of knowledge in public health policy and administration by quantifying the strength and significance of the relationship between health insurance and health outcomes and effects positive social change by measuring the effectiveness of legislation providing the uninsured with health insurance in order to improve health outcomes.

Abstract:
Access to safe, legal abortion services is an important public health measure to address morbidity and mortality from unsafe abortion. To expand access and strengthen medical abortion provision in South Africa, evidence is needed on the safety, effectiveness, feasibility and acceptability of task sharing strategies and the implementation of evidence-based regimens. This research aims to: (a) evaluate the safety and acceptability of task sharing gestational age estimation for women seeking abortion, (b) determine the effectiveness and acceptability of text messaging on mobile phones to support women self-managing medical abortion, (c) evaluate the feasibility, safety and acceptability of self-assessment of medical abortion completion using mobile phones alone or in combination with a low-sensitivity pregnancy test, and (d) document clinical outcomes and women's experiences following the introduction of mifepristone into second trimester medical abortion services. Published or submitted papers included in this thesis are from four prospective studies evaluating interventions and interviewing women and health care workers in South African public sector and non-governmental clinics between 2011 and 2015. The first paper establishes that last menstrual period is sufficiently accurate to estimate gestational age in selected women (97%) and has potential to be task shared with community health workers or women themselves. The second paper reports reduced anxiety (p=0.013) and better preparedness (p=0.016) for self-managing abortion symptoms among women receiving automated text messages (compared to those receiving standard care). The third and fourth papers show that mobile phones are a feasible modality for self-assessment for most women (86%), but that clinical history needs to be combined with an appropriate pregnancy test to detect incomplete or failed procedures. Self-assessment using a low-sensitivity pregnancy test is preferred by most women (98%) to in-clinic follow-up, and providing a guided demonstration on the use of a low-sensitivity pregnancy test does not significantly impact on the accuracy of self-assessed abortion outcome compared to simple verbal instructions (88% vs. 85% accuracy; p=0.449). The fifth paper documents successful self-administration of mifepristone, a higher 24-hour abortion rate (93% vs 77%; p<0.001), and greater acceptability following the introduction of mifepristone into second trimester abortion care, compared to historic cohorts receiving misoprostol only. The thesis concludes that supported self-management and task sharing can strengthen medical abortion provision in South Africa. Research evaluating task sharing of medical abortion care has potential to inform similar approaches for other health care services.

Abstract:
Medical products of all kinds have to comply with regulations to satisfy the demand for public health and safety. Medicinal products (drugs) were the first medical products to be regulated in most countries and regulations for medical devices - generally derived from drug regulations - followed. This thesis reviews the development of safety regulation for medical devices from its relatively recent introduction in the 1960s to the present day. The emphasis is on the situation in countries of the European Community but events in these countries are placed in a world-wide context. Landmark events in this process - notably the US Medical Device Amendments of 1976 and the EC Medical Device Directive of 1994 - are analysed and compared. An examination of current regulations in the three major markets for medical devices: Europe, Japan and USA, leads to the identification of quality systems, product standards, effectiveness/performance and post-market controls as key factors in modern regulatory approaches. The emergence of these key factors illustrates the movement towards an engineering, rather than a pharmaceutical, approach to regulation and their place in current and emerging regulations world-wide is discussed. Manufacturers have long pressed for uniformity in national regulations to reduce the time and cost involved in obtaining market approval and their case has been largely accepted by the regulatory authorities. Harmonization in Europe has been achieved as part of the Single Market programme. The last decade has seen remarkable progress towards the further harmonizing of national and regional regulations. The outstanding difficulties, notably controversy over the need for "effectiveness" determination and relative roles of clinical and laboratory testing, are discussed and solutions proposed. The prospects for achieving global harmonization are examined and a possible future global system is described.

Full text
Abstract:
The debate surrounding marijuana legalization has increased its popularity in recent years, as the state of California seriously considers the complete legalization of the substance for those ages 21 and over. This would make California the first government in recorded history to regulate the cultivation and sale of marijuana on a commercial level. Advocates back the economic positives concerning high tax revenues, but those opposed argue that the dangers associated with public health greatly outweigh any monetary gain. The present study attempts to reveal the possible public health concerns, even potential benefits, caused by marijuana use and its distribution. Specifically, measures of California’s Medical Marijuana Program will be assessed on the total number of drug treatment admissions in each county, taking into account treatment type and which type of drug is primarily responsible for said admissions. Findings reveal influences by both gateway and substitution effects, creating both positive and negative correlations throughout the field of public health. The influences of intangible variables, like that of the black market, make the results difficult to generalize. However, significant correlations can be found among specific health factors, like Heroin use, Crack/Cocaine use, and Residential Treatment.

Abstract:
The present research, consisting of two studies, was designed to examine the primary health care experiences of gay men in Australia and assess doctors? attitudes and training with regard to gay men and their health care. In the first study, 195 gay men were surveyed regarding their health issues and their primary health care experiences. The most important health concerns of gay men were stress and depression followed by HIV/AIDS, body image disorder and other sexually transmissible infections. Including those participants who were unsure, approximately one-half reported experiencing homophobia and almost one?quarter reported experiencing discrimination in the provision of health care. Despite this, respondents were generally satisfied with their primary health care, although respondents felt that all GPs should receive additional undergraduate medical education regarding gay men?s health. In the second study, 25 doctors (13 gay specialists and 12 non-gay specialists) were surveyed regarding their knowledge of gay men?s health and their comfort working with gay men. Non-gay specialist GPs were less comfortable treating gay men, reported poorer communication and were more homophobic than their gay specialist counterparts. Further, doctors perceived their medical education regarding gay men?s health has been inadequate. Together, the results of the two current studies suggest that disclosure of sexuality is an important issue for both gay men and doctors, and has the potential to impact on the quality of health care that gay men receive. In order to improve the level of disclosure, the pervasiveness of homophobia and discrimination in primary health care must be reduced. Finally, the results indicate that medical education must be updated to reflect current knowledge regarding the health issues of gay men. Failure to address these issues will condemn gay men to continued health inequality.

Abstract:
In order to impact Continuous Medical Education (CME) change, perception of medical educators, better delivery, and elements of inclusivity to existing programs are essential with the acceptance that is a postgraduate phenomenon. To make that change possible, physician educators need to be aware of the ever-changing healthcare revolving around inevitable patient needs. A study was conducted to investigate the key areas affecting CME performance at a private tertiary medical education. Despite the convenient sampling and limitations, the study confirmed that medical educators need active intervention and should be empowered with perception alignment. The active intervention of CME delivery to meet the intended aftermath can only result in a whirlpool effect when all layers of contributors to CME development and application are involved in the measures. This emphasis needs educators to be on board with what and where CME is, where and how it shall propagate a high-quality medical education system. This is vital to reassure the unrelenting delivery of outcome achieving medicine for all.

Abstract:
Obstetric medicine and reproductive technology have been spread out worldwide and become the symbol of modernization. Its expansion might displace the traditional treatments which mostly are practiced by the people in developing countries. However, the Malaysian women who lived in a Western country and had a well-educated background still practiced the traditional treatments after giving birth. The study was conducted in 2016 at Durham, a county in the United Kingdom, and it utilized qualitative research by interviewing five Malaysian women who had a birth experience in the United Kingdom. The result of the study revealed that heating the body with hot stone has still mostly practiced by Malaysian women even living in the United Kingdom, where there were optional sophisticated technology and qualified medical professional. In addition, some of them still obeyed the recommended and prohibited foods ruled by the origin culture during the postpartum period. The treatment was conducted at home supported by the family and colleagues whose the same ethnicity and nationality. In conclusion, the national boundaries, high education, and the existence of sophisticated health technology and qualified medical professional are irrelated to why people still undertake traditional treatments. The treatment was primarily chosen because of its health effects on the body after treatments. Therefore, health policymakers have to know and consider the migrant‟s cultural values in order to make the health system convenient and appropriate to either the migrants‟ health. In addition, the study needs further research to find the effectiveness and efficacy of traditional treatments to women‟s health.

Abstract:
The dissemination of health misinformation via digital platforms poses a significant risk to public health in Bangladesh, with many individuals acting on false information. This study aims to understand how the general population engages with health-related content, identify the causes and impact of misinformation, and offer recommendations to mitigate this issue. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study combines qualitative data from detailed interviews with quantitative data from online surveys. Key findings indicate a widespread tendency to trust and follow health recommendations found online, often without verification, leading to potential health risks. The study emphasizes the importance of adhering to authentic medical advice and highlights the need for an integrated approach involving healthcare professionals and government initiatives to combat misinformation. Recommendations include improving digital literacy, enhancing fact-checking mechanisms, and promoting credible health information sources.

Abstract:
The relationship between health and employment status continually shows that individuals who work have lower levels of illness and higher self-reported health. This study examines how self-reported health and objective measures of health (multimorbidity and mental health problems) differ across employment status and occupations among adults of working age (25-65 years). In addition, the study examines how public health coverage – medical card and GP visit card (GPVC) – and private health coverage (PHI), and lack thereof, differ across occupations. Overall, individuals not in employment have much lower rates of self-reported health and higher rates of illness. In particular, mental health problems are three times higher among unemployed individuals across all age groups. Examining workers separately, differences in health status across occupations are small. However, rates of health coverage differ considerably across occupations. In general, occupations associated with poorer health status tend to have the highest percentages of workers without a medical card/GPVC or PHI. This affects workers’ ability to access lower cost or free healthcare, including for the purpose of certified sick leave.

Considering Returns on Federal Investment in the Negotiated “Maximum Fair Price” of Drugs Under the Inflation Reduction Act: an Analysis. Institute for New Economic Thinking Working Paper Series, 2024. http://dx.doi.org/10.36687/inetwp219.

Full text
Abstract:
The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) of 2022 contained landmark provisions authorizing government to negotiate a “maximum fair price” for selected Medicare Part D drugs considering the manufacturer’s research and development costs, federal support for discovery and development, the extent to which the drugs address unmet medical needs, and other factors. This working paper describes federal investment in the discovery and development of the ten drugs selected for price negotiation in the first year of the IRA as well as the health value created through Medicare Part D spending on these drugs. We identified $11.7 billion in NIH funding for basic or applied research leading to approval of these drugs with median investment costs of $895.4 million/drug. This early public investment provided a median cost savings to industry of $1,485 million/drug, comparable to reported levels of investment by industry. From 2017-2021, Medicare Part D spent $126.4 billion (median $10.7 billion) for these products before rebates. Excluding two products for diabetes, Medicare Part D spending was $97.4 billion and the total health value created was 650,940 QALYs or $67.7 billion (WTP/QALY=$104K) representing a negative residual health value of -$29.7 billion (before rebates). We argue that a negotiated fair price should provide returns on both private and public investments in these products commensurate with the scale and risk of these investments, with the principal return on public sector investments being the residual health value (net price) accruing to those using the product. These empirical data provide a cost basis for negotiating a fair price that rewards early government investments in innovation and provides social value for the public.

Full text
Abstract:
We examine the impact of public hospitals openings in Mexico on maternal and infant mortality. Using administrative data from the period 2001 to 2019 and taking advantage of the variation in the timing of the opening of public hospitals across Mexican municipalities, we estimate a staggered difference-in-differences model using the Callaway and SantAnna (2021) estimator. In doing so, we compare municipalities where a public hospital started to operate against municipalities without a hospital in operation, before and after the opening. Preliminary results show that openings substantially reduced maternal mortality rate (24 maternal deaths per 100,000 births, which amounts to a 40% decrease) and infant mortality rate (192 infant deaths per 100,000 births, which amounts to a 14% decrease). We provide evidence that the decrease in maternal and infant mortality is driven by an increase in institutional deliveries. In addition, we show heterogeneity by the type of hospital and the existence of previous medical infrastructure. In particular, the effect is driven by the opening of level II hospitals, and the opening of the first hospital in a municipality. This research closes a gap in our understanding of the health effects of expanding healthcare infrastructure in the developing world.
