Preventing Asthma Emergencies in Schools
Asthma is a significant public health issue, impacting quality of life, morbidity, and health care costs nationally. Stock asthma rescue medication policies authorize school districts to maintain unassigned albuterol and enable trained staff members to administer the medication in response to asthma symptoms, exercise premedication, and asthma emergencies. Stock asthma rescue (or reliever) medication laws serve as an important fail-safe measure. Such laws provide districts with the ability to respond if a student has an asthma emergency at school but either lacks a diagnosis or does not have access to their own medication. As of September 2019, 13 states have enacted either a law or regulation authorizing the stocking of asthma rescue medication in schools: Arizona, Colorado, Georgia, Illinois, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Ohio, Texas, Utah, and West Virginia. Three additional states provide stock albuterol asthma guidelines but do not have legislation: Indiana, New York, and Nebraska. Some states have found that these policies reduce the need for 911 calls and emergency medical services transports as a result of asthma exacerbations. Initial data also demonstrate that these policies reach populations in need and improve health outcomes. This case study will describe the current state of asthma in Illinois, an innovative policy solution to address asthma emergencies in schools, and the steps taken to advocate for stock asthma rescue medication in Illinois. Legislation for stock albuterol in Illinois was signed into law in August 2018.
Primary and Secondary Prevention of Youth Suicide
Youth suicide is a national and global public health crisis. Pediatricians can use primary and secondary prevention strategies to intervene with youth before or after the onset of suicidal behaviors. Universal suicide risk screening programs can be used to identify youth in medical settings who may otherwise pass through the health care setting with undetected suicide risk. Pediatricians are uniquely positioned to help foster resilience in their young patients and equip families of at-risk youth with safety plans and lethal means safety counseling. Pediatricians on the frontlines of this critical public health crisis require education and training in detecting suicide risk, managing those who screen positive, and connecting their patients to much needed mental health interventions and treatments. Evidence-based suicide risk screening and assessment tools, paired with interventions, are feasible and potentially life-saving in the medical setting.
Maintaining Ties When School Closes Is Critical to Preventing Dropouts
Students who were chronically absent or at risk of dropping out before the coronavirus outbreak are even more at risk now that schools are closed, experts say.
Revisiting Using Edtech for Bullying and Suicide Prevention

I can always count on advocates and education companies from all over the world to send me information about what's new in the field. Out of all the companies and produ
Trends in Preventive Asthma Medication Use Among Children and Adolescents, 1988-2008
Preventive asthma medications (PAMs) are a primary management strategy to control asthma morbidity. Little is known about changes over time in prevalence of PAM use among children and adolescents in the United States.
Our analysis demonstrates an increase in use of PAMs among children and adolescents with current asthma in the United States from 1988–1994 to 2005–2008, but racial and ethnic disparities in use of PAMs persist. (Read the full article)
Early Childhood Family Intervention and Long-term Obesity Prevention Among High-risk Minority Youth
The evidence base for obesity prevention is extremely limited. Although minority youth are at higher risk of obesity, and early childhood is a critical period for prevention, only 1 program has demonstrated sustained effects on obesity in young minority children.
Among youth at high risk for obesity based on income, minority status, and child behavior problems, early intervention that promotes effective parenting led to meaningful differences in obesity in preadolescence. Early family intervention is an innovative and promising approach. (Read the full article)
The National Perinatal Hepatitis B Prevention Program, 1994-2008
Infants born to women who are hepatitis B surface antigen–positive have a 90% risk of chronic hepatitis B virus infection, which may cause premature death from liver failure or cancer. Postexposure prophylaxis in infancy prevents 85% to 95% of perinatal infections.
The Perinatal Hepatitis B Prevention Program was created to identify and manage infants born to women who are hepatitis B surface antigen–positive. We provide, for the first time since 1996, national-level data on the outcomes of the Perinatal Hepatitis B Prevention Program. (Read the full article)
Factors Associated With Uptake of Infant Male Circumcision for HIV Prevention in Western Kenya
Male circumcision reduces risk of HIV acquisition in men by 60% and is associated with other health benefits. Compared with adult circumcision, infant male circumcision is safer, less expensive, and represents a cost-saving intervention for HIV prevention in many settings.
IMC is little known in East Africa and is not routinely practiced. This is the first study to assess acceptability and uptake of IMC in East Africa among parents who were actually offered the procedure. (Read the full article)
Attributable Risks for Childhood Overweight: Evidence for Limited Effectiveness of Prevention
Childhood obesity is a public health concern. Although determinants of childhood overweight have been identified and their effect sizes have been calculated, prevention as well as treatment have had limited success.
We have calculated the population-based relevance of determinants of childhood overweight by using attributable risks, which can be interpreted as maximum success rates of preventive measures. New concepts were applied to estimate the relative contribution of each risk factor. (Read the full article)
