Abstract:
Objectives: Patterns of HIV transmission vary widely across demographic groups. Identifying and engaging these groups are necessary to prevent new infections and diagnose disease among people who are unaware of their infection. The objective of this study was to determine characteristics of newly diagnosed individuals across an entire state to determine patterns of HIV transmission. Methods: We evaluated data on people with new HIV diagnoses in Rhode Island from 2013 through 2015. We performed a latent class analysis (LCA) to identify underlying demographic and behavioral characteristics of people with newly diagnosed HIV. Results: Of 167 people with new HIV diagnoses interviewed in Rhode Island from 2013 through 2015, 132 (79%) were male, 84 (50%) were nonwhite, 112 (67%) were men who have sex with men (MSM), 112 (67%) were born in the United States, and 61 (37%) were born in Rhode Island. LCA revealed 2 major classes. Of the 98 people in class 1, 96% were male, 85% were MSM, 80% were white, 94% were born in the United States, and 80% believed they acquired HIV in Rhode Island. Class 2 was 63% male and 69% Hispanic/Latino; 29% were born in the United States, and 61% believed they acquired HIV in Rhode Island. Conclusions: Most new HIV diagnoses in Rhode Island were among MSM born in the United States, and a substantial number were likely infected in-state. People with newly diagnosed HIV who were foreign-born, including Hispanic/Latino and heterosexual groups, were less likely to have acquired HIV in Rhode Island than were MSM. HIV prevention approaches, including pre-exposure prophylaxis, should be adapted to the needs of specific groups. Rhode Island offers lessons for other states focused on eliminating HIV transmission.

Abstract:
Objective:A performance improvement task force of Rhode Island infection control professionals was created to develop an epidemiologic model of statewide consistent infection control practices that could reduce the spread of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).Design:This model encompasses screening protocols, isolation techniques, methods of cohorting positive patients, decolonization issues, postexposure follow-up, microbiology procedures, and standardized surveillance methodologies. These “best practice guidelines” include three categories of recommendations that define priority levels based on the availability of scientific data.Setting:From 1995 through 2000, several Rhode Island hospitals experienced a fivefold increase in nosocomial acquisition of MRSA.Participants:Rhode Island infection control professionals are a highly interactive group in the unique position of sharing patients and ultimately experiencing similar trends and problems.Intervention:The task force collaborated on developing the best hospital infection control practices to prevent and control the spread of MRSA in Rhode Island.Results:The task force met with local infectious disease physicians and representatives from the Rhode Island Department of Health, the Hospital Association of Rhode Island, and Rhode Island Quality Improvement Partners. Discussions identified numerous and diverse MRSA control practices, issues of consensus, and approaches to resolving controversial methods of reducing the spread of MRSA The guidelines regarding the best hospital practices for controlling MRSA were finalized 8 months later.Conclusion:These guidelines were distributed to all chief executive officers of Rhode Island hospitals by the Rhode Island Department of Health in December 2001. They were issued separate and apart from any regulations, with the intent that hospitals will adopt them as best hospital practices in an attempt to control MRSA.

Abstract:
Objectives. To characterize statewide seroprevalence and point prevalence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in Rhode Island. Methods. We conducted a cross-sectional survey of randomly selected households across Rhode Island in May 2020. Antibody-based and polymerase chain reaction (PCR)–based tests for SARS-CoV-2 were offered. Hispanics/Latinos and African Americans/Blacks were oversampled to ensure adequate representation. Seroprevalence estimations accounted for test sensitivity and specificity and were compared according to age, race/ethnicity, gender, housing environment, and transportation mode. Results. Overall, 1043 individuals from 554 households were tested (1032 antibody tests, 988 PCR tests). The estimated seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies was 2.1% (95% credible interval [CI] = 0.6, 4.1). Seroprevalence was 7.5% (95% CI = 1.3, 17.5) among Hispanics/Latinos, 3.8% (95% CI = 0.0, 15.0) among African Americans/Blacks, and 0.8% (95% CI = 0.0, 2.4) among non-Hispanic Whites. Overall PCR-based prevalence was 1.5% (95% CI = 0.5, 3.1). Conclusions. Rhode Island had low seroprevalence relative to other settings, but seroprevalence was substantially higher among African Americans/Blacks and Hispanics/Latinos. Rhode Island sits along the highly populated northeast corridor, making our findings broadly relevant to this region of the country. Continued monitoring via population-based sampling is needed to quantify these impacts going forward.

Abstract:
Objective.The year 2010 is the first time that the Rhode Island hospital discharge database included present on admission (POA) indicators, which give us the opportunity to distinguish cases of hospital-onset Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) from cases of community-onset CDI and to assess the burden of hospital-onset CDI in patients discharged from Rhode Island hospitals during 2010 and 2011.Design.Observational study.Patients.Patients 18 years of age or older discharged from one of Rhode Island's 11 acute-care hospitals between January 1, 2010, and December 31, 2011.Methods.Using the newly available POA indicators in the Rhode Island 2010 and 2011 hospital discharge database, we identified patients with hospital-onset CDI and without CDI. Adjusting for patient demographic and clinical characteristics using propensity score matching, we measured between-group differences in mortality, length of stay, and cost for patients with hospital-onset CDI and without CDI.Results.In 2010 and 2011, the 11 acute-care hospitals in Rhode Island had 225,999 discharges. Of 4,531 discharged patients with CDI (2.0% of all discharges), 1,211 (26.7%) had hospital-onset CDI. After adjusting for patient demographic and clinical characteristics, discharged patients with hospital-onset CDI were found to have higher mortality rates, longer lengths of stay, and higher costs than those without CDI.Conclusions.Our results highlight the burden of hospital-onset CDI in Rhode Island. These findings emphasize the need to track longitudinal trends to tailor and target population-health and quality-improvement initiatives.

Abstract:
Objectives Health disparities are associated with poor outcomes related to public health. The objective of this study was to assess health disparities associated with influenza infection based on median household income and educational attainment. Methods We geocoded people with documented confirmed influenza infection by home address to identify the US Census 2010 tract in which they lived during 4 influenza surveillance seasons (2013-2014, 2015-2016, 2016-2017, and 2017-2018) in Rhode Island. We dichotomized influenza as severe if the person with influenza infection was hospitalized (ie, inpatient) or as nonsevere if the person was not hospitalized (ie, outpatient). We examined 2 socioeconomic factors: median household income (defined as low, medium low, medium high, and high) and educational attainment (defined as a ratio among people who completed <high school, high school, some college, or ≥bachelor’s degree). We calculated relative rates (RRs) to determine the associated level of risk for each socioeconomic factor. Results The incidence of influenza per 100 000 person-years was significantly higher in populations with low vs high median household income (620 vs 303; P < .001) and in populations with low vs high educational attainment (583 vs 323; P < .001). The RR of a severe infection in the quartile with the lowest educational attainment (0.57) was significantly higher than the RR in the other 3 quartiles of educational attainment (range, 0.36-0.39; P = .01). However, the RR of a severe infection was higher in the 3 quartiles of median household income (range, 0.38-0.40) than in the quartile with the lowest median household income (0.29). Conclusions People in Rhode Island with a lower socioeconomic status are at greater risk of an influenza infection than people with higher socioeconomic status. The reasons for these disparities require further investigation.

Abstract:
Anthropologists have a unique opportunity to address real-world issues of aging in our own country. In graduate school I decided to redirect an ethnomusicological interest in ritual performance into an anthropological perspective on the subject of age. For one thing, as a new parent, I realized I was aging. Performance based questions in ethnomusicological suggested a lens through which to view aging. I did my dissertation on an American nursing home, applying concepts of rites of passage, performance and reciprocity to understand the behavior and the perspectives of nursing home participants. In subsequent years I have had two more opportunities to use the anthropologic lens to focus on aging in Rhode Island, first, as an educator in a nursing home and, second, as a participant in a health care reform project for the elderly of Rhode Island.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Foodborne illnesses create a large impact on both the health and economy of the United States. Early detection of an outbreak is essential to preventing additional illnesses. Foodborne illnesses are commonly identified through foodborne illness complaint systems, and it is vital that public health agencies ensure their systems are functioning effectively for successful detection of foodborne outbreaks. The purpose of this study was to provide a descriptive summary of foodborne illness complaint data in Rhode Island and to evaluate the Rhode Island Department of Health (RIDOH) foodborne illness complaint system's ability to detect foodborne outbreaks using the Council to Improve Foodborne Outbreak Response (CIFOR) target performance measures. Data were collected from all foodborne illness complaints reported to RIDOH by the public from 1 January 2010 to 31 December 2017. During this period, 1,218 foodborne illness complaints in total were reported to RIDOH; 85% of complainants reported their illness within 7 days of symptom onset. Most complainants (73%) did not seek medical attention. There were 54 outbreaks, 80% of which were identified by the complaint system. Most pathogens that were identified during an outbreak detected by the complaint system were nonreportable (69%). CIFOR metrics indicate that the complaint system is functioning (i) at an acceptable level of illness complaints expected based on population size and (ii) at preferable levels for metrics related to outbreak detection. This review of the RIDOH foodborne illness complaint system provides evidence for the vital role of complaint systems in detecting foodborne illness outbreaks. In addition, it demonstrates that complaint systems can detect illnesses in a timely manner, likely preventing further illnesses. This was the first multiyear evaluation of Rhode Island's illness complaint surveillance system and will serve as a baseline for future analyses to monitor trends in performance.

Abstract:
Background: Electronic health records (EHRs) may reduce medical errors and improve care, but can complicate clinical encounters.Objective: To describe hospital-based physicians’ perceptions of the impact of EHRs on patient-physician interactions and contrast these findings against office-based physicians’ perceptionsMethods: We performed a qualitative analysis of comments submitted in response to the 2014 Rhode Island Health Information Technology Survey. Office- and hospital-based physicians licensed in Rhode Island, in active practice, and located in Rhode Island or neighboring states completed the survey about their Electronic Health Record use.Results: The survey’s response rate was 68.3% and 2,236 (87.1%) respondents had EHRs. Among survey respondents, 27.3% of hospital-based and 37.8% of office-based physicians with EHRs responded to the question about patient interaction. Five main themes emerged for hospital-based physicians, with respondents generally perceiving EHRs as negatively altering patient interactions. We noted the same five themes among office-based physicians, but the rank-order of the top two responses differed by setting: hospital-based physicians commented most frequently that they spend less time with patients because they have to spend more time on computers; office-based physicians commented most frequently on EHRs worsening the quality of their interactions and relationships with patients.Conclusion: In our analysis of a large sample of physicians, hospital-based physicians generally perceived EHRs as negatively altering patient interactions, although they emphasized different reasons than their office-based counterparts. These findings add to the prior literature, which focuses on outpatient physicians, and can shape interventions to improve how EHRs are used in inpatient settings.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTObjectives: The primary objective of the study was to understand the public's perception of the effectiveness of Rhode Island's public health emergency response plans by using municipal H1N1 vaccination clinics conducted in Rhode Island in January and February 2010 as a basis for public reaction. The effect of previous exercises on public perception was also examined.Method: A survey of 926 H1N1 vaccination clinic attendees was conducted via mail during the period between March 18 and May 1, 2010.Results: A total of 579 surveys were returned, rendering a response rate of 62.5%. The majority of clinic attendees traveled ≤10 mi to the vaccination clinic (90.48%). The average self-reported wait time inside the clinic was 19.16 minutes, and 69.84% of respondents expected to have waited longer before attending the clinic. The self-reported wait time was negatively correlated with patient-reported overall clinic satisfaction. A total of 98.08% of respondents believed that the signage used at the clinics was easy to follow, 100% of respondents believed that the clinic staff was courteous and respectful, and 82.35% of respondents reported that they would rate the clinic they attended as excellent.Conclusions: Rhode Islanders prefer local public health service sites. There was a minor difference in the overall satisfaction of respondents who attended municipal clinics that had exercised emergency plans before activation for H1N1 vaccinations and those municipalities that had not previously exercised. The lack of difference between the practicing and nonpracticing points-of-dispensing may be caused by the standardization of municipal emergency plans, uniformity in the guidance and support of each clinic provided by the Rhode Island Department of Health, and municipalities that had not previously exercised had the opportunity to observe those that had exercised. Having thorough mass dispensing plans in place in advance of a public health emergency is as important as having exercised a point-of-dispensing before a real-world activation.(Disaster Med Public Health Preparedness. 2011;5:106–111)

Abstract:
A resurgence of midwifery came to Rhode Island in the 1970s. Midwives acted as modern health care professionals to conserve a traditional woman-centered birth, but the battle was long and arduous, from Dr. Ellen Stone attempting to eliminate midwives in the state in 1912 to doctors using the death of 2 home birth infants in the 1980s to undermine the growing presence of professional nurse-midwives in the state. Midwives prevailed when the state legislature passed measures in 1988 and 1990 increasing the power and authority of midwives, and when a federal grant in 1993 allowed the University of Rhode Island to open the first training program for nurse-midwives in the state.

Abstract:
In an arts in public health research team, artists may be undervalued as key research collaborators because of the difficulties in skillful integration of experts who possess not only different bodies of knowledge but also different ways of examining and valuing the world. Under the stewardship of two Rhode Island state agencies, an innovative research-driven enterprise, comprising researchers, clinicians, and community artists, was brought together to integrate arts-based interventions into statewide public health policy and practice. Here, we examine our work with the Rhode Island Arts and Health Advisory Group as a case study to illuminate our experiences in collaborating with artists on public health policy and practice research. Using existing frameworks from the literature, we define the attributes of, and challenges to, successful research collaborations and identify from our work how these apply to interdisciplinary collaborations between artists and public health practitioners. To support others working at the nexus of arts in public health, we include key experiences that were specific to the engagement of artists in research teams.
