Dr. Mentz Teams up with SkinMedica for the GRASS Anti-Aging Campaign

Posted: Published on April 14th, 2014

Houston, TX (PRWEB) April 14, 2014 Houston plastic surgeon Dr. Henry Mentz, of the Aesthetic Center for Plastic Surgery, has recently teamed up with SkinMedica for the GRASS Campaign in an effort educate his patients on the five pillars of anti-aging skincare products. There are a lot of confusing skincare buzzwords, such as retinols, anti-oxidants, peptides, etc. Therefore, SkinMedica has created an acronym to help patients make sense of all the anti-aging products on the market: GRASS. Growth factors: Human growth factors are the bodys system for wound healing and repair. As people approach their 30s, growth factor production slows. This is why adult wounds heal more slowly than childrens, and why adults start to show aging. By applying growth factors in the form of a topical skin product, they are absorbed into the skin where they can heal skin damage and reverse aging. Retinols: With age, skin cell turnover slows down and the skin holds on to the dull, dead skin cells. Retinoids prompt the skin to flake off old skin cells quickly, revealing a new layer of skin. This continuous cycle of turning over cells helps the skin maintain a youthful glow. Antioxidants: The main causes of skin … Continue reading →

CHI St. Lukes Health Baylor St. Lukes Medical Center begins groundbreaking new treatment for epilepsy

Posted: Published on April 13th, 2014

CHI St. Lukes Health Baylor St. Lukes Medical Center announced today that it has begun treating patients with the groundbreaking new NeuroPace RNS System, a treatment for adults with partial onset seizures that have not been controlled with two or more antiepileptic drugs. The RNS System is an implantable, therapeutic device that delivers responsive neurostimulation, which is an advanced technology designed to detect abnormal electrical activity in the brain. It delivers small levels of electrical stimulation to normalize brain activity before an individual experiences seizures. This is an incredibly important technological development that we will be using to treat patients with epilepsy for years to come, said Ian Goldsmith, Associate Professor of Neurology at Baylor College of Medicine and a member of the Baylor Comprehensive Epilepsy Center. We are very excited to be able to offer the RNS System to our patients who have had a difficult time controlling their seizures. We believe this device will have a tremendous impact on helping them lead a more stable life. The RNS System is intended for use as a therapy to reduce the frequency of partial onset seizures in individuals 18 years of age or older, who have undergone diagnostic testing and … Continue reading →

New details emerge in case against pediatric nurse accused of poisoning daughter

Posted: Published on April 13th, 2014

Investigators are saying the alleged abuse of a 4-year-old girl who suffered a brain injury from high sodium levels could have started as early as 2011. The child's mother, Katie Alice Ripstra, 31, of northwest Harris County, was charged with felony injury to a child April 8. Investigators believe Ripstra, a former pediatric nurse at Texas Childrens Hospital, used a feeding tube to introduce high levels of liquid sodium into her daughters system in the summer of 2013, said said Lt. Ruben Diaz of the HCSO Criminal Investigations Bureau. While in the hospital, the child would be just fine and then when the child was released back to the parent it wouldnt take long until the child would be returned ill again, said Diaz. These cases are really hard to prove because they can go undetected for years. According to court documents, the child was admitted to the hospital at least five times with high sodium levels from March to August 2013. On Aug. 6, the child returned to the hospital unconscious and suffering from hypovelimic shock from extremely high sodium levels a day after being discharged from the hospital. As a result of the high sodium levels, the child … Continue reading →

E/R decentralise ART treatment centres

Posted: Published on April 13th, 2014

Health News of Sunday, 13 April 2014 Source: GNA To achieve the desired results in the Prevention of Mother To Child Transmission (PMTCT) of HIV, the Eastern Region has decentralised the treatment and care of pregnant women to make it easier and convenient for them to receive the needed care at all health posts running ante-natal clinics. Ms. Golda Asante, the Technical Coordinator of the Ghana AIDS Commission (GAC) for the Eastern Region said the move was to offer one stop intervention where pregnant women who tested HIV positive would not be burdened with going from one facility to the other to satisfy the conditions for the administration of Anti-Retroviral Therapy (ART). The practice had been that, pregnant women who tested HIV positive at ante-natal clinics were referred to other hospitals to do further test to confirm the results and also to access their CD4 count. The practice entailed a lot of movement which has been identified as stressful to pregnant women hence the decentralization where pregnant women would get all their requirement at the ante-natal clinic. Speaking at a graduation ceremony of Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) programme in Koforidua, Ms. Asante observed that, most pregnant women who test HIV … Continue reading →
