Purpose A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect information from clinical audiologists about rehabilitation options for adult patients who report significant auditory difficulties despite having normal or near-normal hearing sensitivity. This work aimed to provide more information about what audiologists are currently doing in the clinic to manage auditory difficulties in this patient population and their views on the efficacy of recommended rehabilitation methods. Method A questionnaire survey containing multiple-choice and open-ended questions was developed and disseminated online. Invitations to participate were delivered via e-mail listservs and through business cards provided at annual audiology conferences. All responses were anonymous at the time of data collection. Results Responses were collected from 209 participants. The majority of participants reported seeing at least one normal-hearing patient per month who reported significant communication difficulties. However, few respondents indicated that their location had specific protocols for the treatment of these patients. Counseling was reported as the most frequent rehabilitation method, but results revealed that audiologists across various work settings are also successfully starting to fit patients with mild-gain hearing aids. Responses indicated that patient compliance with computer-based auditory training methods was regarded as low, with patients generally preferring device-based rehabilitation options. Conclusions Results from this questionnaire survey strongly suggest that audiologists frequently see normal-hearing patients who report auditory difficulties, but that few clinicians are equipped with established protocols for diagnosis and management. While many feel that mild-gain hearing aids provide considerable benefit for these patients, very little research has been conducted to date to support the use of hearing aids or other rehabilitation options for this unique patient population. This study reveals the critical need for additional research to establish evidence-based practice guidelines that will empower clinicians to provide a high level of clinical care and effective rehabilitation strategies to these patients.

Aims and Method We conducted a postal questionnaire survey of the practice of rapid tranquillisation among 215 consultant psychiatrists in the West of Scotland, before and after the withdrawal of droperidol by the manufacturer. Results One hundred and eighty questionnaires (84% of those sent) were returned. Droperidol had been used extensively, often combined with lorazepam, for rapid tranquillisation. The main replacement suggested for droperidol was haloperidol. About half of the respondents to our survey chose to comment on the withdrawal of droperidol. More than half of the comments were unfavourable, including lack of an adequate replacement and lack of consultation with the psychiatric profession. Clinical Implications The abrupt withdrawal of droperidol, partly for commercial reasons, was regrettable. There was no time for an adequate evaluation of possible replacement medications and a lack of consultation with the profession regarding the impact on clinical care.

In mobile, many applications provide services to the users based on the photos provided by the user.Certain applications, client users take a photo of a certain spot and send it to a server, the server identifies the spot with an image recognizer and returns its related information to the users.It can cause a privacy issue because image recognition results are sometimes privacy sensitive.To overcome the problems of existing approaches, proposed an Encryption-Free framework for Privacy preserving Image Recognition, called Enfpire.InEnfPire, the server cannot identify the client users current location, its candidates can only be presented. In proposed thefeature extraction with CNN algorithm help to collect the unique and accurate features from input image and also used Duplicate Detection process to detect images with same features present within same index.In proposed approach user transform the extracted image feature x into y on the user server and sends it to the public server.With the transformation , the effectiveness of the original feature x is degraded so that the public server cannot uniquely recognize the spot-ID of user from y.It only retrives the relevant spot ID’s.The unique spot ID will identify and information regarding the spot and relevant images will be given to the user.

Summary Objectives: Evolving technology and infrastructure can benefit patients even in the poorest countries through mobile health (mHealth). Yet, what makes mobile-phone-based services succeed in low and middle-income countries (LMIC) and what opportunities does the future hold that still need to be studied. We showcase demonstrator services that leverage mobile phones in the hands of patients to promote health and facilitate health care. Methods: We surveyed the recent biomedical literature for demonstrator services that illustrate well-considered examples of mobile phone interventions for consumer health. We draw upon those examples to discuss enabling factors, scalability, reach, and potential of mHealth as well as obstacles in LMIC. Results: Among the 227 articles returned by a PubMed search, we identified 55 articles that describe services targeting health consumers equipped with mobile phones. From those articles, we showcase 19 as demonstrator services across clinical care, prevention, infectious diseases, and population health. Services range from education, reminders, reporting, and peer support, to epidemiologic reporting, and care management with phone communication and messages. Key achievements include timely adherence to treatment and appointments, clinical effectiveness of treatment reminders, increased vaccination coverage and uptake of screening, and capacity for efficient disease surveillance. We discuss methodologies of delivery and evaluation of mobile-phone-based mHealth in LMIC, including service design, social context, and environmental factors to success. Conclusion: Demonstrated promises using mobile phones in the poorest countries encourage a future in which IMIA takes a lead role in leveraging mHealth for citizen empowerment through Consumer Health Informatics.

The amount of electronic waste is growing annually all over the world, today it is almost 45 million tons. Less than 20% of electronic waste is being decontaminated and recycled. The rest is being taken to landfills or to places which are not supposed to store hazardous waste. This increases the adverse impact on the environment due to the fact that the waste consists of over 50% of hazardous components. At the same time, it also contains rare and expensive metals including indium. To extract indium from electronic waste it is necessary to justify the method of leaching. For this purpose research on leaching of indium from mobile phone screens has been done using various acids and parameters of the leaching process. As a result of the analysis, 6 methodologies were tested with various acid concentrations, the contact time of solid matter with a chemical reagent and temperature. The results of experimental research on the determination of metal concentration in mobile phone screens and the analysis of methods on indium leaching from mobile phone screens into a solution for further research are presented.
