  • Blood Collection
    Blood Collection (Note: Navigation around this large pdf document is best accomplished using the bookmarks function.) 355.1 Preface Blood collection (venipuncture, phlebotomy) is a common and important specimen collection procedure in the conduct of research. In many protocols, multiple blood draws are an important part of collecting and analyzing data. The Emory University Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) developed a policy to best enable blood collection while minimizing the potential for pain, unnecessary stress, distress or untoward effect in research animals. These are articulated by way of this general overview supplemented by companion documents appropriate to certain species. The species-specific sections differentiate from the general standards in being more precise, and sometimes more adaptable, in considering the frequency and total number of blood collection events; maximum collectable volumes allowed based upon specific physiology; detailing allowable routes particular to each species; differentiating between terminal and survival circumstances; disclosing requirements for anesthesia or restraint; scientific qualifiers and addressing conditionally permissible methods or settings germane to a species. This list is not exhaustive and persons requiring information regarding the supplies and equipment needed, specifics of restraint or anesthesia, requirements for ancillary care, habituation requirements, application to study in the field and other information are encouraged to contact the Training Coordinators for their specific site. o DAR Training Request: http://www.dar.emory.edu/forms/training_wrkshp.php o Yerkes National Primate Research Center Training: Jennifer McMillan, [email protected], 404-712-9217 While it only takes about 24 hours for the lost fluid volume of blood to be restored, it takes longer to regeneratively replenish erythrocytes, platelets and other circulating factors.

    2. Unwanted Medicine Take-Back Programs: Case Studies Collection programs are aimed at reducing the quantity of unused unwanted medicines entering the environment and reducing the amount of drugs available for diversion, theft, or accidental poisoning. These initiatives provide the legal framework and the logistic resources required to allow the general public to turn in unwanted medicines to be disposed of safely (most of the programs described here use hazardous waste incineration with emissions controls for most non-controlled medicines, while law enforcement normally incinerates controlled substances with other confiscated materials). Typically, collections for household medicines accept unwanted or expired medicines, including both prescription and over-the-counter medicines. These collections are beneficial because: • Unwanted medicines accumulating in the household present a public safety hazard; • Diverting medicines from the toilet or trash can decrease the environmental pollution from wastewater treatment discharge and unlined solid waste landfills; • Collections help educate the general public about the environmental impact of improper medicine disposal • A collection program provides the opportunity to inventory unused drugs and can yield wastage data that could prove valuable to physicians in better managing their prescribing practices. Several states, cities, and counties throughout the United States have successfully initiated long-term unwanted medicine collection programs, while others have organized single-day or annual collection events. Some programs have been specifically dedicated to collection of household medicines only, while others have accepted unwanted medicines as part of a larger household hazardous waste collection program. There is a clear need to transfer knowledge about methods of addressing the issue of unwanted medicine collection and disposal among parties who might organize collection programs.

The Stark County Health Needs Assessment Committee’s involvement with the 2011 Stark Poll was funded by Alliance Community Hospital, Aultman Health Foundation, and Mercy Medical Center and was coordinated by the Stark County Health Department. The questions focused on the following areas: overall needs and health, general physical and mental health, access to care, immunizations, smoking and tobacco use, alcohol consumption, prescription medication abuse, obesity and access to healthy food, exercise and texting while driving. Where possible, comparative data from previous Stark Poll administrations are included throughout the analysis. Overall Needs and Health First, all respondents were asked what they thought was the greatest unmet health need in Stark County.
