What happens when medicine meets altitude? ✈️ Duke Health researchers have published the most comprehensive global study to date on in-flight medical emergencies, analyzing over 77,000 cases across 84 airlines and six continents. Key findings: 1 in every 212 flights involves a medical emergency. 8% of affected passengers required hospital care after landing. Cardiac arrest survival rates are significantly lower in the air than on the ground. Medical volunteers, often physicians, assisted in nearly one-third of cases. “This study gives us a real-world snapshot of what happens when someone gets sick in the sky,” said Alexandre Rotta, M.D., chief of Pediatric Critical Care Medicine at Duke. The research highlights the challenges of practicing medicine mid-flight and underscores the importance of ground-based medical support. This work could inform airline policy, crew training, and passenger preparedness, especially for those with chronic conditions. 📖 Read the full study published in JAMA Network Open: https://lnkd.in/efwSSWf9 #CommunityHealthDuke | Duke University School of Medicine

See more about these important findings: w/ Duke Obstetrics & Gynecology | #DukeUrology
No one wants to wait two months for a doctor’s appointment, especially when it’s for prostate cancer, infertility, or serious urinary problems. In 2022, Duke Urology faced a median wait time of 54 days, reflecting a nationwide challenge: growing demand for urologic care and not enough specialists to meet it. More than half of U.S. counties lack a practicing urologist and the workforce is aging fast. That's when Karen Baker, MD, MMCi, a 24-year Army veteran and “access champion” stepped in. Her team led a data-driven transformation, overhauling the triage process, prioritizing complex cases and expanding telehealth and procedure clinics. Baker serves as the study program director for Duke University's Master of Management in Clinical Informatics (MMCi) program, which blends clinical informatics, business strategy and technology to create leaders who can improve health care quality and reduce costs. And those wait times? Down 70% to about 17 days. 🔗 Learn how they did it: https://lnkd.in/eCxYTTQb 📸: Eamon Queeney

A true reflection of the strength and legacy behind the Rainbow of Heroes Walk, started by the PTCT Family Support Program 25 years ago. Thank you to all who walked, volunteered, and supported this tradition that means so much to so many. Duke University Health System | Duke University School of Medicine
