    The 2017 CDC STD Surveillance Report documented continued steep and sustained increases in the three reportable STDs - gonorrhea, chlamydia and syphilis. Congenital syphilis rates reached a 20-year high in 2017. Healthcare providers and health systems remain at the forefront of the battle against STDs. Provider education, technical assistance, and clinical capacity building are critical pieces for a foundation of comprehensive STD clinical prevention in healthcare settings. A dynamic and complex healthcare landscape demands innovative methods to reach both clinicians and healthcare settings from a variety of sectors throughout the U.S in order to meet the goal of optimal STD clinical prevention implementation in the clinical care setting. The purpose of this NOFO is to support The National Network of Sexually Transmitted Diseases Clinical Prevention Training Centers (NNPTC). This network is charged with improving the capacity of healthcare professionals, clinical sites and healthcare systems to employ state-of-the-art knowledge to diagnose, manage, treat and counsel individuals with and at-risk for STDs in order to reduce STD morbidity and improve sexual health on an individual, local and national level. This NOFO supports the following broad strategies : Component A Regional Centers: A1 (Core) - assess training needs and service gaps to inform the development and delivery of comprehensive STD clinical prevention T/TA for providers serving priority populations; A2 (Focus Activity) - pr

Pragmatic Clinical Studies to Evaluate Patient-Centered Outcomes - Cycle 1 2018 | PCORI - 0 views

  •  
    PCORI seeks to fund pragmatic clinical trials, large simple trials, or large-scale observational studies that compare two or more alternatives for addressing prevention, diagnosis, treatment, or management of a disease or symptom; improving healthcare system-level approaches to managing care; communicating or disseminating research results to patients, caregivers, or clinicians; or eliminating health or healthcare disparities. Proposed studies must address critical clinical choices faced by patients, their caregivers, clinicians, or delivery systems. They must involve broadly representative patient populations and be large enough to provide precise estimates of hypothesized effectiveness differences and to support evaluation of potential differences in treatment effectiveness in patient subgroups. PCORI's multi-stakeholder panels have identified 16 high-priority topics and research questions. (See PFA Appendix for list.) PCORI will give first consideration to applications that directly address one or more of the 16 PCORI identified topics. Note that PCORI is open to receiving and reviewing LOIs for studies on investigator-initiated CER questions as well. Note that this funding program does not support applications to conduct cost-effectiveness analyses, systematic reviews (with or without meta-analyses), or developing or evaluating shared decision-making or decision-support tools. In general, PCORI will not cover costs for interventions that are being compared in the proposed study. (See Appendix 3 in the Application Guidelines for details.)

    Ohio is home to approximately 26,000 individuals living with paralysis as a result of a Spinal Cord Injury (SCI). According to the National SCI Statistical Center 66% of those individuals remain unemployed with each expected to manage lifetime healthcare costs of $1-3M. This represents a significant cost to the state and also imposes a severe burden on the quality of life for those living with this impairment. While there is research in pursuit of improved treatments to ameliorate the effects of paralysis, the field is significantly underfunded relative to similarly sized patient populations or disease with similar lifetime healthcare costs. While the scientific disciplines of neuroscience and biomedical engineering are making progress toward the development of new treatments, there is a lack of systematic and especially localized effort to guide these advances representative of the various stakeholders. The research funded through this process is specifically targeted to advance and accelerate the development of innovative treatments, product innovation and rehabilitative efforts that lead to the functional improvement of people living with spinal cord injuries. Research topics may include, but are not limited to, discovery science, pharmaceutical development, medical device design and implementation, and the development of novel rehabilitative approaches and techniques.

Etiology and Outcome of Inflammatory Bowel Disease - 0 views

  •  
    Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), encompassing Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, is characterized by chronic inflammation of gastrointestinal tract. In 2015, approximately three million US adults reported having a diagnosis of IBD and the estimated number has increased greatly from 1.8 million since 1999. While the exact cause is unknown, the severity and progression of the disease largely impacts the patients’ quality of life and imposes huge financial burden to the US healthcare system. The purpose of this announcement is to 1) establish a new IBD registry to estimate incidence of IBD in the adult and pediatric populations and extrapolate to the US population; 2) describe the natural history and outcomes of IBD; 3) determine racial/ethnic variation in the detection and management of IBD; and 4) identify evidence-based strategies to improve disease outcomes. The results are anticipated to enhance understanding of the impact of IBD on the overall health of affected persons and the impact of various clinical practices and healthcare delivery approaches on the disease outcomes.
