Featured Guests Brigid Groves, PharmD, MS Mitch Rothholz, RPh, MBA, FAPhA Lucas Berenbrok, PharmD, MS, BCACP, FAPhA Key Takeaway Tools and techniques pharmacists can use to foster trust with patients regarding vaccines. CDC's "Vaccinate with Confidence" Initiative Protect Communities CDC is supporting partners to find and protect communities at risk through new investments and partnerships. Leverage CDC's Immunization and Vaccines for Children cooperative agreement to support efforts to identify and respond to areas with low vaccine coverage. Public trust in pharmacists and pharmacy teams helps reinforce vaccine messages. Collaboration with community leaders and influencers is crucial—messages must be evidence-based and credible. Best Practices for Pharmacists "Walk the talk"—if you or a family member received concomitant vaccines, share your experience. Example: "I received three vaccines at one visit (flu, COVID, and RSV), and I am here to talk about it (and I do)." Engage with patients by listening rather than lecturing. Acknowledge patient concerns and provide them with information to consider. Vaccine hesitancy is not the same as being anti-vaccine—many patients are "vaccine contemplators." Vaccine Effectiveness COVID-19 Vaccines Effectiveness Against Severe Outcomes Updated vaccines (September 2023 – January 2024) have been effective against XBB lineage and the new JN.1 variant. Waning Protection Booster doses are recommended as vaccine effectiveness declines over time. Population Variability Effectiveness varies based on age, underlying health conditions, and other factors (e.g., immunocompromised individuals may experience different levels of protection). General Vaccine Effectiveness Real-World Conditions Effectiveness is measured under real-world conditions, factoring in vaccine type, dosage, and timing. Monitoring & Updates The CDC continuously tracks vaccine effectiveness to adjust recommendations as needed. Impact of Vaccination Measles: Cases reduced from hundreds of thousands annually to only 49 in 2021. Polio: The U.S. has been polio-free since 1979. Hepatitis B: Routine vaccination significantly reduces liver cancer risk. Childhood Vaccinations: 100% reduction in cases of diphtheria, Hib, measles, mumps, polio, and rubella. Influenza incidence reduced by 17%. Overall Impact: Childhood immunizations have averted over 24 million cases of vaccine-preventable diseases in the U.S. Between 1994-2013, vaccinations prevented: 322 million cases of disease 21 million hospitalizations 732,000 deaths Public Health Strategies Use immunization data to identify areas of low vaccine coverage. Engage with local health departments to monitor vaccine-preventable disease trends. Strengthen immunization programs to enhance outbreak response. Encourage collaboration among healthcare providers—it shouldn't matter who vaccinates, the goal is increasing immunization rates. Empowering Families CDC is partnering with key organizations to strengthen vaccine conversations between providers and parents. Strategies Start vaccine conversations early, targeting parents of infants and pregnant women. Reduce hesitancy and improve access in community health centers. Develop provider toolkits to address parental concerns during outbreaks. Combating Misinformation CDC is working with local messengers and partners to stop vaccine myths. Challenges & Key Messages New administration statements have increased vaccine doubts, making conversations harder. There is no link between vaccines and autism, diabetes, or other diseases. Investments in Public Trust: Work with social media companies to promote trustworthy vaccine information. Provide accessible, accurate vaccine data to policymakers. Engage state and local health officials to counter misinformation effectively. Priorities for 2020 and Beyond CDC aims to ensure that every community is protected through: Data-driven strategies to identify vulnerable populations. Expanding local resources to strengthen vaccination efforts. Building a culture of immunization in healthcare settings. Improving public communication on vaccines. Enhancing partnerships to promote immunization initiatives. Ten Key Messages for Pharmacists Engaging with Vaccine-Hesitant Individuals Vaccines Save Lives – They prevent serious diseases and save millions of lives each year. Rigorous Testing – Vaccines undergo extensive trials and continuous monitoring to ensure safety and effectiveness. Community Immunity – Vaccination protects those who cannot be vaccinated, such as infants and immunocompromised individuals. Combating Misinformation – Rely on credible sources for vaccine facts. Misinformation fuels fear and hesitation. Mild Side Effects – Most side effects (e.g., sore arm, mild fever) are temporary. Severe side effects are extremely rare. Consult Healthcare Providers – Encourage patients to ask healthcare professionals for reassurance. Vaccines and Fertility – There is no evidence that vaccines, including COVID-19 vaccines, affect fertility. Herd Immunity – High vaccination rates protect entire communities. Rapid Vaccine Development Explained – COVID-19 vaccines were developed quickly due to unprecedented funding and collaboration—without compromising safety. Long-Term Benefits – Vaccination prevents future outbreaks and contributes to long-term public health. Pharmacists' Role in Addressing Hesitancy Provide accurate, evidence-based information. Listen actively to patients' concerns. Engage with community health workers to strengthen local vaccination efforts.

Electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes; also known as e-cigs, electronic nicotine delivery systems, vapes, mods, pods, and vape pens) have surged in popularity since their market introduction in 2007. Some view e-cigarettes as a less harmful alternative to traditional cigarettes and a potential harm reduction strategy. Others worry about their addictive potential and see them as a setback in our quest for a tobacco-free society. Guest Authors: Elizabeth S. Yett, PharmD, BCACP, CTTS and Kirk E.

Today on the podcast, we talk with Rebecca Grandy, Directory of Pharmacy at CHESS Health Solutions, about the connection between diabetes and chronic kidney disease, the populations who are at risk, how to address any concerns, and what tests and interventions are available to the provider. OK, so, Rebecca Grandy, welcome to the move to Value podcast. Could you start by explaining the connection between diabetes and chronic kidney disease and why it's so important to screen for these in diabetic and or for chronic kidney disease in diabetic patients?Sure. You know, diabetes is one of the leading causes of chronic kidney disease. I think there's lots of reasons for that. A lack of early screening, a lack of just knowing what to do, having accessible medicines. But all of those things now we have relatively good screenings, we have medications and so kidney disease and diabetes is present preventable. And then just from a, you know disease, state perspective, diabetes itself, the high glucoses, the inflammation on the high blood pressure, obesity, all of those things also increase your risk for chronic kidney disease and so you'll see a strong correlation between those two.And you know, it's also proven that minorities are disproportionately affected by chronic kidney disease and what steps do you think can be taken to address that as we start looking into our social determinants and our HealthEquity components of the quintuple aim?Wow, that's sort of a can of worms type of question, right? Because you know, when I think about minority populations or even just disparities in healthcare, I think there are lots of reasons for those. One is access and so primary care I think is the solution for that. And so being able to solve access issues to primary care, there are also issues like social determinants of health issues and so thinking through a lot of the work that ACOs are doing, like the REACH model, care coordination, social work, really being able to not only screen for social determinants of health, but to actually have solutions for those. And so I think that's happening slowly. You know, those screenings are starting to be incorporated into primary care, but if we can address some of those issues, I think we can solve access issues. The harder one in my mind to solve is sort of the historical like trauma and distrust that comes with minorities in the healthcare system. That one's harder, but I think. I think you know having minorities go into positions where they are providers, right? So I can see someone who culturally is like me, who looks like me, who I know has my best interest at heart. I think a lot of those pipelines for minorities to be healthcare providers, are really helpful as well.Yeah, I think that's definitely true. So some of our data at CHESS shows that you know up to 40% of people with diabetes do develop chronic kidney disease. Can you explain why early screening is so critical and how it impacts the progression of that disease?And I feel like I have to tell a story first. So, you know, when I was working in primary care, one of the most, I don't know, frustrating's the right word, but definitely discouraging things is when you see someone sitting in front of you that has a chronic condition that could have been prevented, right? And I feel like chronic kidney disease is one of those preventable conditions because when you have chronic kidney disease and you progressed in stage renal disease and you're on dialysis that kind of takes over your entire existence, right? Like those people are going to dialysis three times a week, you have to be really careful about the nutrition, about your protein intake. You have to be careful about all your medicines. You can't just go to your cabinet and reach for your ibuprofen. And so the fact that something that you know can be so significant or impact your lifestyle that...
Despite advances in the management of acute myocardial infarction (MI), up to 38% of patients will experience signs of heart failure (HF) and many have a reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).

This episode is a collaboration between the ACCP Ambulatory Care Practice and Research Network (PRN) ... and iForumRx.org. We speak with three panelists who describe the use of remote patient monitoring within their cardiology practices. From measuring weight, blood pressure, heart rate, blood glucose, and even pulmonary artery pressure, the use of remote patient monitoring devices has the potential to revolutionize patient care by making more data available "real-time" and engaging patients more in their care.
