Home | Business News | Pharmaceuticals and Biotech News | New Study Indicates Monaghan Medical's Drug-Free Aerobika(R) Device Shows Promise for Treatment of Bronchiectasis
New Study Indicates Monaghan Medical's Drug-Free Aerobika(R) Device Shows Promise for Treatment of Bronchiectasis
SYRACUSE, NY–(Marketwired – Jan 12, 2017) – Monaghan Medical Corporation (MMC) today announced that the findings of a study published in the most recent issue of Academic Radiology shows that patients with non-cystic fibrosis (CF) bronchiectasis responded favorably to airway maintenance therapy using the Aerobika® device. This latest study adds to the growing base of evidence that demonstrates Monaghan's drug-free Aerobika® device is effective for lung health maintenance.
In this latest study, researchers noted significant improvements in ventilation function for a number of bronchiectasis patients after three weeks of using the Aerobika® device. There were no adverse events related to the use of the device reported during the study.1
Bronchiectasis is a condition in which the structure and function of the airways become permanently damaged, usually as the result of infection or other condition. Patients suffering from chronic bronchiectasis typically have trouble clearing mucus from airways and suffer from a repeating pattern of airway damage, mucus buildup, and recurrent infections. The result is typically a vicious cycle of decline, resulting in reduced air exchange in the smaller airways.
There are three primary goals in the successful treatment of bronchiectasis:
Treat any underlying conditions and lung infections
Remove mucus from the lungs, and
Prevent complications
"This most recent study just adds to the mounting clinical evidence that our Aerobika® device is effective for patients with bronchiectasis, COPD, and related respiratory disease," said Dominic Coppolo, MBA, RRT, FAARC, Vice President Clinical Strategy and Development at Monaghan Medical. "We are always pleased to see real-world findings that demonstrate the efficacy of our Aerobika® device in clearing mucus to improve lung function in patients with chronic bronchial ailments as well as high-risk COPD patients."
Overlap between bronchiectasis and COPD
Researchers have observed overlap between bronchiectasis and other chronic airway diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Studies show that these types of patients tend to have higher rates of exacerbation and worse outcomes.1 The overlap between bronchiectasis and COPD was highlighted in a recent study presented at the 2016 CHEST annual meeting in October. Investigators found that 92.7 percent of COPD patients who had experienced more than one exacerbation in the previous 12 months also had bronchiectasis.2
The results of the study published in Academic Radiology showing effectiveness in treating bronchiectasis patients using the Aerobika® device are in line with another 2016 real-world study presented at the European Respiratory Society (ERS) International Congress. Investigators found the Aerobika® device demonstrated a clinically significant reduction in exacerbations in as little as 30 days of treatment when used as an add-on to usual COPD medications.3
About the bronchiectasis Aerobika®device study
Fifteen participants with non-CF bronchiectasis and 15 age-matched healthy volunteers underwent spirometry, plethysmography, computed tomography (CT), and hyperpolarized 3He magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Bronchiectasis patients also completed a Six-Minute Walk Test, the St. George's Respiratory questionnaire, and Patient Evaluation Questionnaire (PEQ), and returned for a follow-up visit after three weeks of daily oscillatory positive expiratory pressure (Aerobika® device) use. Supplementary data related to this study can be found at dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.acra.2016.08.021.
About the bronchiectasis and COPD overlap study
A retrospective study of the medical records of 961 stable COPD outpatients who were followed regularly during the period 2011-2015 at least twice/year. Complete medical records were found in 855 patients who were eligible for the analysis. Results were presented at the 2016 CHEST annual meeting.
The complete study can be found at http://journal.publications.chestnet.org/article.aspx?articleid=2568609
About the Aerobika®device real-world COPD study
A retrospective cohort study of the CDM hospital claims database was conducted between September 2013 and August 2015. The final study sample comprised of 810 patients; 405 received an Aerobika® device and 405 were propensity score matched. The study inclusion criteria were: ≥1 record pre-index, ≥1 record post-index, newly initiated on the Aerobika® device, ≥1 diagnosis of CB on/before index, ≥18 years old, no evidence of other PEP/OPEP anytime, with complete records. See more at: http://erj.ersjournals.com/content/48/suppl_60/PA3780
About the Aerobika®device
The Aerobika® device is hand-held, easy-to-use and drug-free. When the patient exhales through the device, intermittent resistance creates positive pressure and oscillations simultaneously, which expands the airways, helps expel the mucus to the upper airways where it can be coughed out, and may also aid in improved drug deposition. The Aerobika® device is available in Canada, Mexico, and select European countries including the UK and Germany through Trudell Medical International and in the US via Monaghan Medical Corporation. https://www.monaghanmed.com/Aerobika-OPEP

Q: ngGrid not displaying data I have created a directive to display my grid as the following:
This is the widgets module
 (function() {
    angular.module("Widgets", []);
}());

This is the application module
    (function () {
    var app = angular.module("productManagement",
        ["common.services", "ui.router", "ui.mask", "ui.bootstrap","ngGrid", "Widgets", "productResourceMock"]);
    (function () {
    var app = angular.module("productManagement",
        ["common.services", "ui.router", "ui.mask", "ui.bootstrap",**"ngGrid"**, **"Widgets"**, "productResourceMock"]);
}());

This is the controller
(function () {
angular.module("productManagement")
    .controller("ProductController",
    ["productResource", "ProductService",
    productListController]);
function productListController(productResource, $scope, productService) {
    var vm = this;

    vm.testData = [
        { imageUrl: "test", productName: "test", productCode: "1222", releaseDate: "12", price: "344" },
         { imageUrl: "test", productName: "test", productCode: "1222", releaseDate: "12", price: "344" }
    ];

    vm.columnDefs = [
        { field: 'imageUrl', displayName: 'Image' },
         { field: 'productName', displayName: 'Product Name' },
          { field: 'productCode', displayName: 'Product Code' },
           { field: 'releaseData', displayName: 'Date' },
        { field: 'price', displayName: 'Unit Price' }
    ];

    vm.productList = function () {

    };
    productResource.query(function (data) {
        vm.products = data;
    });

    vm.showImage = false;
    vm.toggleImage = function () {
        vm.showImage = !vm.showImage;
    };

};}());

This is the widget directive
angular.module('Widgets').directive('gridwidget', function ($compile) {

return {
    restrict: 'E',
    template: '

',
    scope: {},
    compile: function(cElem, cAttrs) {
        return {
            pre: function(scope, iElement, iAttrs) {
                scope.options = {};
                scope.options.columnDefs = scope.$parent.$eval(iAttrs.cols);

                scope.options.data = scope.$parent.$eval(iAttrs.tableData); //iAttrs.tableData;
                //scope[iAttrs.tableData] = scope.$parent.$eval(iAttrs.tableData);

                scope.options.showGroupPanel = true;
                scope.options.showSelectionCheckbox = true;
                scope.options.showColumnMenu = true;
                scope.options.showFilter = true;
                scope.options.enablePaging = true;
                scope.options.showFooter = true;
                console.log(scope.options);
                scope.$parent.$watch(iAttrs.tableData, function(value) {
                    var val = value || null;
                    if (val) {
                        scope[iAttrs.tableData] = scope.$parent.$eval(iAttrs.tableData);
                    }
                });

            }
        };
    }
};});

In the index HTML page I have the references to the following:

Product List view displays the grid
  <gridwidget table-data="vm.testData" cols="vm.columnDefs"></gridwidget>

The issue that I am facing with is that the grid displays on the product List view page, the total Items count displays the correct number of records but no data is displayed on the grid.
Would anyone know what is the issue here?
Cheers.

Mr. Khan's Review on What Will People Say (2017)
April 7, 2020 April 6, 2020 Mr. Khan's Reviews
A review on Norwegian-Pakistani Drama feature length film, What Will People Say (2017) aka Hva Vil Folk Si. The Production Houses are Mer Film, Rohfilm GmbH and Zentropa International Sweden while Its Distributors are Lucky Red, ARP Sélection and Avalon.
Written & Directed by Iram Haq
Cinematography by Nadim Carlsen
Edited by Janus Billeskov Jansen and Anne Østerud
Music by Lorenz Dangel and Martin Pedersen
Produced by Maria Ekerhovd
What Will People Say is inspired by director Iram Haq's own life. It is claimed that she was once kidnapped to Pakistan. Almost all of the supporting cast are Indian performers.
Due to the security concerns & to have the film crew upper hand, the shooting besides Norway, took place in Rajasthan, India. Although, the film shows it as Lahore, Pakistan.
What Will People Say had its world premiere at the 42nd Toronto International Film Festival in 2017. This film is translated in Norwegian language as well.
Maria Mozhdah as Nisha
Adil Hussain as Mirza
Ekavali Khanna as Mother Najma
Rohit Suresh Saraf as Amir
Ali Arfan as Asif
Sheeba Chaddha as Aunt
Jannat Zubair Rahmani as Salima
Lalit Parimoo as Uncle
Nisha is a daughter of a Pakistani-Norwegian family, who is later kidnapped to Pakistan by her parents when her father finds her in bed with a man.
i – Adil Hussain is an Indian actor, with a long list of films mentioned in his career. In this film, he portrays the role of a strict father who wants Nisha to follow their ancestor's societal norms. I'm very pleased and satisfied with his believable portrayal as a desperate father to save his girl from falling into western attributes and lifestyle. The viewers are made aware of his great love for his daughters underneath the strict discipline that he wears in his daily life.
ii – It may come as shocking to many, but this is Mariah Mozhdah's first film as an actress. Here she portrays the daughter of a Pakistani family settled in Norway. Her character is shown as being torn apart between two very different cultures. One belongs to Norway life, which is socially progressive while the other is her family's traditional roots. Mariah has given a phenomenal performance. Its just matter of time, when she appears in future projects.
iii – Iram Haq's direction has made it clear to the audience and critics alike that she means serious business when it comes to film making. She gives a brief insight to the both cultures norms and living styles. What one needs to understand is that we can not enforce our beliefs and traditions to our children, especially without their consent. They are after all, of different era.
iv – Surprisingly, there are some daring scenes that were shot.
v – The film comes to an end with a realistic view.
i – The film's plot is very similar to the films that I have watched earlier.
What Will People Say brings us to the point where we stand between the societal norms and self-freedom.

Suicide Kit Ban Approved by Oregon House
dean schabner and mikaela conley
PlayJournal of Medical Ethics
WATCH Double Suicide Hits Middle School
The Oregon House today overwhelmingly approved a ban on the sale or marketing of suicide kits, a month after senators voted unanimously for a similar bill.
The bill, which was passed by the House 52-6, will be returned to the Senate so any changes made can be approved before it goes to the governor for signing.
The bills were presented after a 29-year-old Oregonian named Nick Klonoski used a suicide kit to end his life in December. Klonoski ordered the simple kit, which contained a hood and tube, through the mail.
"After learning of a young man who took his life using a helium hood he bought, it became obvious that there were no checks and balances of marketing suicide kits," said State Sen. Floyd Prozanski, who sponsored the bill in the senate. "Minors had access to the kits through the Internet, and I personally don't believe we need to be marketing an object like a suicide kit."
Prozanski said that he supports assisted suicide for those who are terminally ill and have been counseled on ending their life, but not for young people who are depressed but otherwise physically healthy.
The Daily Beast reported that Klonoski was not terminally ill, and would not have qualified for lethal prescriptions available to eligible Oregon residents under the Death with Dignity Act. Oregon is one of three states in which assisted suicide is legal.
"Any kid who suffers from depression after losing their first boyfriend or girlfriend and thinking the world is over has access to this right now," Prozanski said.
When Klonoski received his suicide package in the mail, it might have been anything: a simple white box decorated with a butterfly. But inside were the simple tools he would use to end his life.
And even after Klonoski reportedly used one of Sharlotte Hydorn's homemade suicide kits to end his life in December, the 91-year-old entrepreneur said she makes no apologies for his death.
"I cannot take all the sadness of the world on my shoulders," Hydorn said from her home in La Mesa, Calif. "I feel so sorry for the mama, but I'm not at fault. That's his choice, not my choice."
While Hydorn believes she's "making the world better" by selling the kits to people who want to end their life, she took the news of the Oregon bill in stride.
"If I never sell anymore kits there, that's fine," Hydorn said. "Oregon is Oregon, and they can do as they please.
"Since this bill came out, I've received many many orders from Oregon," she said. "They haven't benefited themselves, and now people are stocking up before the law closes on them."
Hydorn said the homemade kits, which she has been selling for four years, are intended to assist the death of those who are terminally or in severe chronic pain. But anyone can request the $60 kit, and she does not screen her clients before sending out the device.
Business doubled after Klonoski's death made headlines, according to Hydorn, and she plans on continuing to grow her small company.
Hydorn first became interested in assisted suicide after watching metastatic colon cancer take over her husband's body in 1977. He died in the hospital, instead of at home, where Hydorn said he belonged.
"It's always been in my mind that people should have the right to die at home with a family around them, not in a strange place surrounded by strangers," she said.
Hydorn was sure to look into the legal side of things before starting her mail-order business by making sure that she would not be implicated in any potential legal woes.
"The attorney told me, 'You're just the bag lady,'" she said. "So long as I'm not present when death occurs, and I'm not telling them to shut up and pull the bag down already, I am not accountable."
Hydorn Meets Humphry
Three years after her husband's death, Hydorn met Derek Humphry, author of "Final Exit" and founder of the right-to-die organization, the Hemlock Society. Hydorn believed in Humphry's mission and began to volunteer, and ultimately became a board member, for the organization.
"I assume her purpose is Kevorkian-like -- to help people with terminal illness feel empowered," said Dr. Ken Robbins, clinical professor of psychiatry at the University of Wisconsin and director of psychiatry at Stoughton Hospital nearby.
But even if a person believes assisted suicide is ethical, Robbins said it is essential for a clinician to thoroughly screen patients to be sure they are not suicidal because of depression.
"You have to make sure they don't want to end their life because they are depressed because depression is treatable," Robbins said. "If the person goes through a good evaluation with a clinician, it's not that hard to decipher."
"If they have depression that is temporary due to the illness, or from the mental condition itself, part of the symptom is to feel hopeless," Robbins said. "People have to know that it will get better through treatment.
"For people in emotional pain, I don't know how anyone could argue that it is ethically appropriate to help them commit suicide," he said.
Hydorn said people call or write to her to request a kit, which includes a customized plastic bag and a tube intended to be connected to a tank of inert gas. Customers often provide little detail of their intentions. They usually tell her their name, the number of desired kits and the address where they'd like the kit to be sent. They enclose a check for the appropriate amount and sometimes include extra postage if they want the package delivered overnight or sent internationally.
Hydorn said she has received requests for kits from all over the world.
No Screening, No Follow-Up
After hearing of Klonoski's death, Hydorn said she went through her invoices to see whether she could find his written request. She could not find a letter from the name, Klonoski, but she did find a correspondence with an unclear recipient and address.
"It was a P.O. box," she said. "People can really give me any name they want. It could be Joe Blow and I wouldn't know the difference. I just have to trust people."
But Prozanski's office said the box sent to Klonoski, which was retrieved after his death, had his full name and home address written on the package. Hydorn's company, the Gladd Group, was clearly labeled as the sender of the package.
Hydorn also said that the Daily Beast insinuated that, along with her kit, she sends the recipient a copy of "Final Exit," the how-to handbook for terminally ill people who wish to end their lives, written by Humphry. Hydorn said she does not sell the book, but Humphry told her that Klonoski had bought the book more than a year before he ended his life. Hydorn said many of her clients are referred by Humphry.
Frank Kavanaugh, a spokesman for Final Exit Network, said the organization screens clients with physical and mental health exams to determine whether the network will help to supply information and counsel people on how to end their lives. Clients must be determined by a doctor to be in the last six months of their lives.
"One of the advantages of counseling is that, if a person makes it through preliminary checks, they're very carefully counseled to make sure what they're doing is successful," Kavanaugh said. "If you're not counseled, it can lead to a problem."
But, when asked whether he believes it is a problem that Hydorn does not screen her clients, Kavanaugh said: "I don't think she is being irresponsible. We don't have control of other people."
Some psychiatrists disagree. Dr. Eric Hollander, clinical professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York, said it is critical that individuals with psychiatric disorders resist acting on suicidal thoughts or impulses by helping them view their situation in a more realistic perspective.
"The problem is that with increased access to such a device to terminate life, some individuals might be enabled to act on a whim or impulse to kill themselves, whereas if this was not readily available, patients might obtain help for their underlying mental disorder, or view their situation from alternative or more realistic perspectives," Hollander said.
But Hydorn doesn't see it that way, and the grandmother wipes her hands free of repercussions after her kit is sent out.
"Again, if someone gets hurt, I'm sorry, but that's their decision," said Hydorn. "Somebody closer to them than me could have helped that person. It's not my responsibility to help emotionally sick people. There's local help for that."
Not In it for the Money
The Daily Beast reported that Hydorn makes $98,000 per year through her company, but she said that fact is wrong.
"I have no idea where they got that number," said Hydorn.
Either way, Hydorn said she is not in it for the money.
"I get emotional satisfaction out of being able to help people," she said. "My motivation is to help people. If they misunderstand that, then so be it, but I'm not at fault for other people's choices."
