    Chest pain can be a cause for alarm for you even when it doesn't have to. Often it makes us fear the worst: a heart attack. However, not all chest pain is related to the heart. Understanding the various causes of chest pain and knowing how to differentiate between cardiac and non-cardiac chest pain is very important for maintaining good health and peace of mind.

  • Mobile interactive technology (such as texting) has great potential to reach users with limited health literacy skills, and the team at ODPHP is actively exploring how we can use mobile to communicate important health messages. Recent mobile campaigns, such as TXT4BABY and KNOWIT have shown promise in this regard.
  • That said, the digital divide is still very much a reality and more research is needed to assess the reach and impact of mobile health

  • despite the promise of online health resources, few studies have looked at how they are used by individuals coping with health problems, including HIV." (p. 48). Therefore, this research was designed to investigate how a web-based resource that included CMC, video, and support documents was used by HIV/AIDS community members.
  • Individual learning preference was one theme shared by some participants
  • These comments demonstrate a variety of preferences for learning. Of the four participants who shared comments, one preferred print, another audio, and two liked the integration of multi-media.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • In summary, some participants did not use CMC at all and one did not trust it as a source. The other three shared that they used this form of communication but not usually to learn about HIV/AIDS treatment information.
  • When participants were asked about their views and practices regarding the use of CMC, responses were varied, from having no interest in using the technology to finding it quite useful.
  • Many using the Internet are very savvy about visual media, having already watched copious amounts of television and motion pictures. With few exceptions most have seen countless hours of video in which production quality is very high. Further, many have read large amounts of text-based information, which has been professionally edited and type-set. As a result, some participants in this study may have been negatively impacted components containing imperfections. As one participant (P12) said, "...that's a whole thing about the Internet, it needs a good edit". An interface must be very "clean" before effects or impact of learning on participants can be measured for effect on learning or health improvements [21].
  • Use of the technology appears to be, in some cases, an adjunct to other offline resources.

    What Is Appendicitis? How to diagnose Appendicitis? Where is Appendix pain located In this article, we hope you can find all of your answers related to Appendicitis. We covered everything about Appendicitis. We discussed types, causes, symptoms, tests, and treatment of Appendicitis.
  • fnfdoc on 02 Jul 18
     
    Appendicitis is an inflammation of the appendix, which is a small tube of intestinal tissue that projects from the large intestine. While the appendix does not seem to have a particular function, one theory suggests that it acts as a storehouse of good bacteria and boosts immunity after diarrheal illness. However, some experts believe the appendix is just a purposeless remnant from our evolutionary past. One thing we're sure of is that we can live without it, without any apparent consequences.

  • Tom Fields on 27 Jun 12
     
    The purpose of this process is to promote patient understanding through the use of plain language principles and the "teach-back" method. The new form and consent process have increased the proportion of patients observed to be reading the form and who were able to describe their surgery in their own words, and enhanced patients' comfort level with asking questions. Anecdotal reports also suggest that patients, families, and nurses are satisfied with the enhanced process and form.
