This study aims to better understand how aspirin use is managed for patients after they come into the emergency room for bleeding or trauma. In the long term, to improve patient care as they transition from emergency care to primary care and ensure patients are taking aspirin safely. We think this study is important because it's the first to look at how emergency room visits lead to stopping inappropriate aspirin use in older adults. Our team includes experts from different fields like emergency medicine, geriatrics, heart health, and pharmacology.

We are looking to see how patients undergoing total shoulder replacement are rating their satisfaction and function with the results of their surgeries. We want to know what patients are describing in their pre and postoperative course so the field can better tailor the details surrounding care of the procedure to individuals undergoing these surgeries in the future.

: The proposed study is a three-year mixed methods study of the impact of the U.S. Supreme Court's Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization decision, and subsequent changes to state reproductive health policies, on mental health and work-related wellbeing of OB/GYNs. We will study how workplace factors, and organizational policies and practices, may lessen the impact of restrictive state policies on OB/GYNs' mental health, work-related wellbeing, and turnover intention. We will undertake a convergent mixed-method design, in which we will conduct a quantitative survey and qualitative interviews simultaneously. We will then conduct key informant interviews of OB/GYN and hospital leaders to determine the best methods and pathways for dissemination of findings.

The purpose of this study is to understand how states can improve health information exchange for their Medicaid members.

In North Carolina's Triangle Area, the Islamic council of imams has cancelled congregational prayer and advised people to worship at home. In Senegal where 94 percent of the population is Muslim, the presidential decree prohibiting all public gatherings - including the Friday prayer - was initially met with ambivalence among some. In Kenya, the imposition of a country wide mandatory curfew starting from 7PM to 5AM, a government recommendation of at least 3 meters social distancing, and a shut-down and restriction of movement in the Nairobi metropolitan area and the Muslim majority counties of Mombasa, Kwale, and Kilift imply that the Muslim congregational and Friday prayer cannot be performed. Using online questionnaires and other digital research methods, this study examines how Muslims in North Carolina's Triangle area, Senegal, and Kenya have negotiated adjustments to their religious routines in order to accommodate urgent COVID-19 public health policies without fundamentally comprising their

The study is designed to estimate the quality of life experienced by participants with controlled and non-controlled EoE because such estimates are useful in health economics research.

Neonatal mortality remains a significant challenge in Malawi, despite the country's success in reducing overall childhood mortality. We have identified significant gaps in infection control and routine neonatal care in tertiary facilities. As more childbirths are occurring in health facilities, it is crucial to identify areas for improvement and address these in each facility to enhance the quality of neonatal care. This study proposes a team-based approach to identifying areas for improvement with a high potential to significantly impact neonatal survival in surgical neonates. By including a wide range of individuals - from those working in the unit to providers interacting with the team to hospital leadership - we can design robust interventions with the potential for successful implementation and propagation. Our study proposes a reproducible model that other neonatal services or facilities may replicate. An additional benefit of a qualitative research-informed approach is empowering all team members to improve

The purpose of this study is to gather information from local public health departments in Texas on efforts to link individuals in their community to social and/or medical services also referred to as care coordination. The researchers seek to understand how care coordination work may help strengthen local public health departments.
