Since the inception of the Functional Forum as a small NYC-based Meetup Group, we have talked about a kNew vision for American Medicine.. Over the last four years, we have grown to encompass 50 shows, 170 podcasts, countless conferences and summits, four unique practice development products, numerous media appearances and over 100 Meetup Groups across five countries.. We could have never anticipated the level of excitement the Forums would generate about a kNew era in medicine, and we can’t wait to share what we have planned next.. In this month’s episode, Evolution of Medicine will travel back across the highlights of the past 50 Forums to showcase how we got here, the main themes driving our community’s success and why those same themes will bring about a kNew era of predictive, preventive and patient-centered medicine powered by community.. Throughout the one-hour broadcast, you will hear from some of our most popular speakers including:. • Dr. Kelly Brogan, MD NYT-Best-Selling author of “A Mind of Your Own”. • Tom Blue, a veteran and pioneer in the field of direct-primary-care and concierge medicine. • Dr. Jeffrey Gladd, MD Chief Medical Officer at kNew Health. • Dr. Terry Wahls, MD University professor, researcher and creator of “The Wahls Protocol” and Functional Medicine textbook. ..and many more. This kNew vision is well on its way to radically shifting how healthcare and functional medicine is procured, distributed, funded and accepted by patients and corporations across the country..

The problem of people taking multiple medications is called polypharmacy. Many people and their caregivers are aware of the problem, but, too often, their health care professionals are not If you google the keywords, taking too many medications, chances are. Polypharmacy.
A Totally Modern Epidemic. If you google the keywords, taking too many medications, chances are you will come across a term called Polypharmacy. The word has been used for a long time to describe the problem of patients are taking multiple medications. Although the elderly are most likely to “suffer” from polypharmacy, people with psychiatric conditions and many other chronic.
Medication Overload: America’s Other Drug Problem, a report released in April 2019 by the Lown Institute, chronicles the epidemic of polypharmacy in. “And as this edition shows, we know more than ever about the current state of polypharmacy, a modern epidemic which has the potential to blight the lives of millions of older people. Yet progress is slow,” Goodwin and Kaskie state. Societies should be measured by the way their most vulnerable citizens are treated.
Similar to the international effort required to deal with an epidemic, the International Group for Reducing Inappropriate Medication Use and Polypharmacy (IGRIMUP) was founded to combat the iatrogenic epidemic of inappropriate medication use and polypharmacy. Polypharmacy is a growing public health problem which could be greatly reduced by the integration of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) into health care systems. Defined as the use of five or more drugs at one time, polypharmacy affects up to 40% of US seniors, while 12% of those over age 65 take ten or more daily drugs. Nevertheless, successful reduction of ‘the epidemic’ has tremendous, potentially beneficial economic consequences representing a triple win–win game: improved health and QoL for millions, and reduced costs of drugs, superfluous evaluations and hospitalizations. 79 Health economists may evaluate the impact of de-prescribing an average of 6–7 drugs in older adults with polypharmacy, on health expenditures.
The problem of polypharmacy, as the multitude of drugs is called, and the side effects they cause is largely a result of our fragmented health care system, rushed doctor visits, and direct. Multiple studies point to the dangers of polypharmacy use among older adults, including potentially inappropriate medications (PIMs), anticholinergic burden, drug–drug interaction-related adverse drug reactions. 26 – 30 The prevalence of polypharmacy use and inappropriate prescribing in the elderly is a global phenomenon reported in multiple countries. 4, 31, 32 The consequential.

One of the more dire prophecies of the 21st century is that the world, now accustomed to global travel and interaction, will be struck by a particularly virulent form of influenza or infections (such as tuberculosis or other bacillary diseases) that are resistant to drug treatments.
from Africa 2019-2020 by Francis Wiafe-Amoako Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, 2019
Influenza A may also change abruptly by ‘antigenic shift’ leading to the circulation of a new subtype to which there is little existing population immunity and causing a major pandemic, usually with severe disease in all ages: these have occurred in 1918 (causing 20–40 million deaths worldwide), 1957 and 1968.
Eradication of measles is feasible in the second decade of this century, if a two-dose policy is used and sustained with high priority globally, supplemented by catch-up campaigns for older children and young adults, and outbreak control.
from The New Public Health by Theodore H. Tulchinsky, Elena A. Varavikova Elsevier Science, 2014
Swenson (1988) suggests the outbreaks of the influenza epidemics occurring in the US and Western Europe in the twentieth century resulted initially in high levels of denial, which progressed to blame, among the western countries.
In industrialized countries, epidemics still occur from time to time, and clinical severity increases with age, leading to the paradoxical effect of greater morbidity and mortality in older age groups and increasing economic costs (14).
Pandemics, on the other hand, spread globally and may persist through months, years, or decades; these include such historic scourges as bubonic plague in the Middle Ages, influenza in 1918 and 1919, and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) in the 20th and 21st centuries.
Epidemic bacterial meningitis, for reasons that remain unexplained, has virtually ceased to be a public health problem in industrialized countries since World War II, although small clusters of cases or hyperendemic disease can still be a vexing problem.
Pandemics of disease have been uncommon in developed countries since World War II.
from Medical Microbiology E-Book by Patrick R. Murray, Ken S. Rosenthal, Michael A. Pfaller Elsevier Health Sciences, 2012
Indeed, the last outbreaks in the United States in the epidemic pre-vaccine era included parents in more advantaged families whose children carried wild poliovirus into the home [305].

Excellent video. I do telepsychiatry for nursing homes. My record so far is a patient wit 46 medications. I have observed that when patients enter hospice and their drugs are reduced their medical and psychiatric condition will improve. I have started to spread the word to the nurses and PCPs I work with about ‘deprescribing’ in the care of the elders. Thanks for your work.
