Building Definitive Evidence for Acute Endovascular Stroke Therapies

Sandy brings out the best of nYu langone Hurricane Sandy knocked out power to the entire lower east side of Manhattan — including several hospitals, one being NYU Langone Medical Center. Over the course of 13 hours, roughly 1,000 staff, faculty, medical students, emergency crews and volunteers evacuated more than 300 patients — down many flights of stairs lit only by flashlight. But every single patient, family member and the evacuation teams made it through safely and without injury.

One of the many on the front lines was ACRM MeMbeR, John CoCoRAn, DPT, PT, MS, CeRT.MDT, clinical assistant professor, Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, and director of inpatient rehabilitation therapy at NYU Langone’s Rusk Rehabilitation. Certified as a super-user of the lightweight transport Med Sled devices, Dr. Corcoran was among those who helped coordinate and lead the teams that safely transported patients — some down 15 flights of stairs — to waiting ambulances for transfer to other hospitals.

“It could have been chaotic — but it wasn’t,” said Dr. Corcoran. “It was exhausting and physically demanding, but everyone was focused on their job to stay calm and well-organized to achieve our key goal of getting everyone out safely.”

“It could have been chaotic — but it wasn’t... it was exhausting and physically demanding, but everyone was focused on their job to stay calm and well-organized to achieve our key goal of getting everyone out safely.”

— ACRM member, John Cocoran, DPT, PT, MS, Cert.MDT Corcoran describes the sheer size of the operation and the seamless collaboration among a variety of health and safety professionals as incredibly impressive. Nurses, physicians, security personnel, physical therapists, occupational therapists, therapeutic recreation clinicians, secretaries, medical students, administrators and countless others contributed their specialized training and commitment to the patients to form truly interdisciplinary teams, a concept that hits home in the area of rehabilitation medicine.

ACRM Rehabilitation Outlook $10,000 year This bi-monthly favorite ACRM publication features updates from the ACRM Board of Governors, Special Interest Groups and Networking Groups. The newsletter is printed and mailed to all members at least two times per year — keeping them informed on ACRM projects. Additionally, they learn about opportunities to participate in educational programs and stay informed on legislative policies and health care reform issues. Sponsor benefit includes one full-page sponsor-provided advertisement.

Corcoran also noted that the therapists used their clinical expertise to ensure the safe transfer of patients as well as to monitor the physical well-being of the staff and emergency crews.

This oversight became important, given the exertion and strain associated with lifting and transporting many patients down several flights of stairs.

Rehabilitation clinicians have a valuable online resource available for educating and supporting patients who have sustained spinal cord injury (SCI) and their families at www.FacingDisability.com.

----------------------------------

Vicki Hill sustained a spinal cord injury in a 1986 diving accident, resulting in tetraplegia. Vicki had the opportunity to participate in a peer-mentoring program, and her parents, Robert Hill and Thea Flaum, recognized how powerful and supportive the experience was for Vicki to meet others living with SCI.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, CANADA

9–13 OCTOBER 2012

They founded the Hill Foundation, a private operating foundation to provide an online resource for individuals with recent spinal cord injury and their families.

FacingDisability.com is specifically created to connect families for mutual support through shared experience and provides answers to critical questions.

THE SHERATON VANCOUVER WALL CENTRE

FacingDisability.com contains interviews with more than 100 people with spinal cord injuries and their family members — parents, spouses, and children — addressing critical questions about living life with a spinal cord injury. There are more than 1,000 excerpts from these taped interviews available on the website.

Like real-time programs, Facing Disability’s online peer-mentoring program introduces people with new injuries to others who have some experience living with a spinal cord injury. In so doing, patients learn how to think about disability and live with a new body experience. Facing Disability offers more than well-intentioned advice; the videotaped interviews provide an honest and unvarnished voice of experience.

Recognition Requirements, Specifications & Details Product vs. Company Logo The following are ACRM’s guidelines for the use of product logos: »» A product logo can be placed on a non-educational sponsored item as sponsorship recognition. »» A product logo cannot be used for general recognition (overall course banners, website page, publications, etc.) »» The product logo can be a logo only, and cannot contain any quantitative or comparative language, price information, or other indications of savings or value, an endorsement or an inducement to purchase, sell or use the product or service.

Sponsor Logo Requirement and Use ACRM will need your logo as a Vector-Based EPS format in full-color and in b/w, as well as JPEG, GIF or TIF file format.

This is to ensure that you receive the highest quality logo recognition.

All logo recognition will be in full color for digital (web/screen) and full color format when possible in print. However, single color (b/w) may be necessary as determined by the ACRM Marketing Department.

On most specialty items, logos will appear in either black or white. When additional colors are available the sponsor will be notified, and if they so choose can pay any additional costs to add colors. Logo size will be based on the following criteria: »» The level of sponsorship (this will determine size of logo in relation to other logos on general sponsorship banner) »» Sponsored item (ACRM Marketing team will determine the appropriate size for item) When multiple colors are available for specialty items, the ACRM marketing staff will determine the appropriate color choice based on product availability and consistency with Annual Conference theme.

ACRM Logo Use of ACRM Logo ACRM loves it’s members, sponsors and exhibitors. Members, sponsors and exhibitors are encouraged to love ACRM back — by proudly proclaiming their alliance using the official ACRM logo on their communication. Logo requests should be emailed to info@ACRM.org.

Non-members, non-sponsors and non-exhibitors are strictly prohibited from using the ACRM logo. The ACRM logo is the property of ACRM and unauthorized use by non-members is strictly prohibited.

Fine Print All advertisements and sponsorships are subject to availability and to ACRM approval. Prices as listed in this guide are subject to change without notice.

ACRM has made every effort to ensure accuracy, but please understand ACRM can not be held liable for typos.
