"It is important to recognize and commend the very professional and compassionate help that our RN Patient Advocate provided for our mutual patient, D. Allen.
The RN Patient Advocate was asked to visit D. Allen because of fragmentation in her care; she was seriously ill and death seemed imminent. The Advocate's intercession with the physicians, nurses and paramedical personnel was persistent, yet impressively diplomatic and professional. Her efforts resulted in a much more coordinated and rational treatment program and improved communication between all caregivers. My conviction is that she quite literally saved this patient’s life.
This new service of an RN Patient Advocate is quite obviously greatly needed in today’s medical milieu."
New Data Supports Link Between Diabetes Drugs, Fractures. Avandia, Actos increase chances of broken bones in older men and women, study shows - 7/30/2010 - (Updated: 7/30/2010)
New research finds that two widely prescribed diabetes drugs may raise the risk of broken bones in postmenopausal women with type 2 diabetes.
There was also a fracture risk seen among men who had been prescribed either Avandia or Actos plus a loop diuretic.
This isn't the first time such an association has been seen, raising doubts as to whether these drugs, which belong to the class of medications known as thiazolidinediones (TZDs), should be the first choice for treating type 2 diabetes.
