The New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) and Montefiore Medical Center, with the Fund for Public Health of New York, DOHMH's fiscal agent, have partnered on a study to evaluate the feasibility, health outcomes and return-on-investment of a single integrated pest management (IPM) intervention for Bronx, Harlem and Northern Manhattan children aged 5 to 12 with persistent asthma who are living in homes with pests. Principal Investigator (PI) Daniel Kass, MSPH, Deputy Commissioner of the DOHMH Division of Environmental Health, has extensive experience overseeing evaluation of program and policy initiatives, and co-PI Marina Reznik, MD, MS, Associate Professor of Pediatrics at Montefiore, has conducted research on evaluating the impact of a home-based asthma intervention on asthma-related outcomes in children with persistent asthma recruited from Montefiore clinics.
