Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy

Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy 

According to Hassan and Tornvall (2017), Takotsubo syndrome is a recently recognized acute cardiac disease entity with a clinical presentation resembling that of an acute coronary syndrome. The typical takotsubo syndrome patient has a unique circumferential left (bi-) ventricular contraction abnormality profile that extends beyond a coronary artery supply territory and appears to follow the anatomical cardiac sympathetic innervation. Come learn about the syndrome and efforts to mitigate this with staff and students in the educational setting

The Menstrual Equity Act Handbook

Review the Handbook

AB 10 (2017)* came from three young high school students in Stockton who approached me
and were aware of my work to eliminate the sales tax on menstrual products. They said that
was good and were appreciative, but also shared with me that they should have free
menstrual products in school. Then they shared how they struggled to afford products and
how that affected their education. One said she missed school whenever she had no
products. One said she used socks with toilet paper and newspapers and one memorized
where all the fancy hotels were because they usually had free menstrual products.

School Nurse Lead or Health Services COE Leads

CSNO is interested in gathering the names of school nurse/health services leads at the county office of education.

Policy Statement

AAP Policy Statement on Off-Label Medication Use
The American Academy of Pediatrics has a position statement on the use of off-label medication use with children. The purpose of off-label use is to benefit the individual patient. Practitioners use their professional judgment to determine these uses. As such, the term “off-label” does not imply an improper, illegal, contraindicated, or investigational use. Therapeutic decision-making must always rely on the best available evidence and the importance of the benefit for the individual patient.
