Your children leave the house in warm coats, mittens, scarves and hats. Think you’re doing your part to protect them from the fl u? Unfortunately, the fl u is highly contagious, and it’s spread through germs—not cold weather.

The best way to protect your children—and yourself —is as simple as getting a fl u shot. “As many as 36,000 people in the United States die each year from complications of

infl uenza,” says Jan Schwarz-Miller, MD, director of occupational medicine for Atlantic Health. “The fl u is highly communicable, and a person can infect others for a full day before he or she experiences any symptoms, meaning everyone around that person has been exposed to the disease.”

To prevent getting and spreading the fl u, Dr. Schwarz-Miller recommends an annual fl u shot, which is available for everyone and is a must for children 6 months to 5 years old, seniors and those who work in childcare and health care.

Dr. Schwarz-Miller leads an annual initiative to vaccinate Atlantic Health employees, medical staff and volunteers, keeping them healthy so they can help keep their patients and their families healthy. Last year, a vaccination drill was held to evaluate how Atlantic Health would respond to an epidemic. During the two, day-long clinics, more than 2,000 employees received the fl u shot.

Did you know?Lymphedema is graded according to severity, and is referred to as either stage one, stage two or stage three. The signs and symptoms mentioned above depict

the early stages of lymphedema. Although lymphedema cannot be prevented, its progression into more severe stages can be controlled through early detection and management. If you notice persistent swelling, it is important to seek medical advice from your physician.

**Lymphedema is rarely painful. Pain associated with warmth or redness in the affected area may indicate infection and should be reported to your doctor immediately.

When ruth jAcKson, md, the first female orthopedic surgeon, started her practice in Dallas, Texas, 75 years ago, she was met with resistance and was even excluded from the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons for several years. Even today, fewer than 11 percent of women choose to enter an orthopedic surgery residency program, though half of all medical school graduates are women. A female pediatric orthopedic surgeon is even more rare.

Times are changing, however. Barbara Minkowitz, MD, and Samara Friedman, MD—both of whom are pediatric orthopedic surgeons—have recently joined the staff at Morristown Memorial Hospital and Overlook Hospital.

Little Kids, Big InjuriesWith more athletic options available

and at younger ages, the risk of pediatric orthopedic injuries has increased dramatically within the past 20 years. However, the number of pediatric orthopedic surgeons hasn’t increased to match that demand.

“While sports at an early age can be beneficial, children’s bodies aren’t necessarily ready for the physical impact this can create,” says Dr. Friedman. “As a result, children are sustaining more severe injuries earlier and that can impact their growth and development. Pediatricians

often want to refer their patients to pediatric orthopedic surgeons.”

From a Female’s PerspectiveParents may feel that it’s best to have

a female perspective on their daughter’s injuries. The girls in turn might feel more comfortable with female physicians.

“Being a mother affects my treatment, because I have experienced things with my kids and I can relate to the parents and children,” says Dr. Minkowitz. “You can be truly sympathetic to the child’s pain and the parents’ concerns, and it’s completely possible to empathize with any situation.”

To speak to an Atlantic Health representative about this topic, or to

obtain a physician referral, call 973-656-6916, Monday through Friday, 8:30 am to 4:30 pm.

Reduce the Risk

1Help keep your kids safe by ensuring they wear properly fi tting, appropriate gear for their chosen activity, including helmets, wrist guards and elbow and knee pads.

2Make sure your child is warmed up (and properly trained) before hitting the fi eld for any athletic activity.

3Talk to your child about how to recognize an injury—and not to play through the pain.

The daVinci® Robotic Surgical System is helping women who suffer from incontinence.

From demystifying a mysterious condition to linking robotics with gynecological care, read about the latest in healthcare innovations for women—and how they can help you.

Breakthroughs in Women’s Health

A Leader in Robotic OB/GYN Surgery

Following hysterectomy, many women experience an uncomfortable side

effect: urinary incontinence, or a loss of bladder control. This condition is the result of vaginal vault prolapse, which occurs when the uppermost part of the vagina falls downward.

To help restore continence, gynecologists often recommend a sacrocolpopexy—a procedure to repair the length and shape of the vaginal canal and restore continence.

“In the past, this procedure was often performed through large, open incisions,” says Patrick J. Culligan, MD, director of urogynecolgy and pelvic reconstructive surgery for

Morristown Memorial Hospital. “However, by using the daVinci system, the surgeon has the perspective of being inside the patient’s anatomy, which means he or she has access to better angles and increased dexterity. The patients benefit with smaller incisions

and a lower risk of complications.”Morristown Memorial physicians are

leading the field in robotic surgery, using the daVinci system for a wide variety of procedures, including those for the prostate, kidneys, bladder, heart and female reproductive organs.

For years, physicians have labeled ovarian cancer as a “silent killer,”

mainly because the disease was generally identified only in later stages with symptoms such as abdominal girth, nausea and vomiting.

Today, women—and their physicians—are learning that abdominal pain (particularly in the pelvis); bloating; difficulty eating or feeling full quickly; and an increase in urinary urgency or frequency can all indicate early stage ovarian cancer.

“These symptoms are vague and will be experienced by many women during their lifetimes, and the vast majority of women with these symptoms won’t

have ovarian cancer,” says Daniel Tobias, MD, gynecological oncologist and director of the Women’s Cancer Center for Morristown Memorial Hospital. “However, if a woman comes in with these symptoms and we’re able to diagnose ovarian cancer in its earliest stages, she has a much better chance of survival.”

Awareness of these symptoms is important, because only about 20 percent of ovarian cancers are detected at an early stage. Most are found during an annual pelvic exam or a blood test, which determines if the level of CA-125—a protein produced by ovarian cancer cells—has increased in the blood.

“Women need to be aware of their risks for ovarian cancer—particularly if they have a first-degree relative with ovarian cancer or early-age breast cancer—and pay close attention to their symptoms,” Dr. Tobias says. “If they experience the symptoms, they should get them checked out immediately.”

Apopular option for patients with prostate cancer is image-guided radiation therapy (IMRT). The procedure locates a

patient’s prostate using a computed tomography (CT) scanner and notes the location with a temporary tattoo.

While IMRT is effective for most patients, those with a body mass index over 35—indicating severe obesity—experience less success. Recent studies explored what might be the cause.

“We discovered that the failure rates for IMRT due to high body mass index were often caused by movement of the prostate, which is a common problem,” says James Wong, MD, oncologist, chair of radiation oncology for Morristown Memorial Hospital. “This is exciting news, because it means that technology we have already developed to detect movement in the prostate will also improve the accuracy and success of treatment for patients with high BMI.”

Better TogetherCT image-guided radiation treatment developed by

Dr. Wong and his colleague, Minoru Uematsu, MD, combines

a CT scanner with a high-energy linear accelerator (CT Linac) to precisely locate and treat tumors of the prostate. Before each treatment, the location of the prostate is verified. Any movement is detected by the in-room CT scanner within a fraction of a millimeter and causes the target for the radiation to be recalculated.

In addition to eliminating the uncertainty of movement, the accuracy of the CT Linac spares surrounding healthy tissue.

Improving Care for All PatientsThe CT Linac has also been upgraded with a larger opening

at the CT side and a reinforced table that can accommodate patients who weigh up to 500 pounds.

“We are very sensitive to the feelings of every patient we serve. We recently had a patient who, at six foot four inches and 450 pounds, felt he was treated with dignity and respect at each radiation therapy visit,” Dr. Wong says. “In addition to the professionalism of our staff, our table is one of the few in the United States that can support patients up to 500 pounds.”

manufacturers of cell phones, laptops and cars never stop advancing their technology to provide consumers with more options to meet their individual needs. now, physicians are doing the same for patients with prostate cancer.

susPect Your chIld may be faking his stomachache? If he has a math test he’s been dreading, chances are the pains could be caused by anxiety. However, they could be signs of something more serious.

“A stomachache can be very real,” says Nader Youssef, MD, pediatric gastroenterologist and director of the Center for Pediatric Irritable Bowel and Motility Disorders for the Goryeb Children’s Hospital at Atlantic Health. “When I surveyed school nurses, one thing I learned was that they felt helpless. They didn’t know what to do for kids who kept coming back to them for stomach pain. I wanted to provide education that would help school nurses better care for these students.”

Defining the Condition Recurrent abdominal pain occurs when a child

suffers at least 12 weeks of abdominal discomfort in a year. The pain is usually a daily discomfort and isn’t associated with any other type of illness or symptoms, such as fever, vomiting or diarrhea.

As many as 20 percent of middle and high school students suffer from recurrent abdominal pain, so it is vital that school nurses understand how to recognize and care for the condition. Typically, if a child has episodes of pain that affect daily

function or cause him or her to want to stay in bed, it’s likely recurrent abdominal pain. However, if a child complains of pain and then goes about his or her typical activities once at home, the stomachache may just be an excuse to get out of school.

Taking Intuition ForwardAccording to Dr. Youssef, school nurses intuitively

understand that children with recurrent abdominal pain need something to correct their problem, and rest is often offered as a solution. When nurses feel other issues are playing a part in the pain, such as hunger or constipation, they offer crackers or send them to the bathroom. After recently interacting with Dr. Youssef, school nurses now have another tool available—guided imagery. With this technique, similar to self-hypnosis, children listen to compact discs designed to lead them into a relaxed state.

“Guided imagery uses the power of imagination to aid in healing. The technique helps students focus on something besides their pain,” Dr. Youssef explains. “If they aren’t hurting, they can remain in school instead of heading home, which is a better solution that keeps students from missing class and parents from missing work to care for them.”

What Else Could It Be?

Tummy aches come in all shapes and sizes. When it’s not recurrent abdominal pain, the following are a few reasons your child’s tummy may be hurting:• lactose intolerance• constipation• peptic ulcer disease• food allergies• infection

For many parents, these words are all too common. For school nurses, stomachache complaints are one of the top three reasons students come to them each day. A new program addresses this issue and helps area school nurses help your children.

“Women Are tWIce as likely as men to have difficulty sleeping,” says Federico Cerrone, MD, medical director of the Sleep Disorder Center for Overlook Hospital. “While a woman’s recommended hours of sleep stay the same as she ages, her commitments and life changes may alter her sleep schedule. It’s important for women to get the sleep they need to function during the day, especially since lack of sleep could equal weight gain.”

Here’s a look at common sleep stealers through the ages and ways to get a better night’s rest.

20sTwenty-somethings often try to balance

work, school, social life and family time, sometimes missing the recommended eight hours of sleep.

“Women in this age group should maintain a regular schedule of bedtimes and wake-up times,” says Marc Benton, MD, co-director of the Sleep Disorder Center for Morristown Memorial Hospital. “Avoiding late meals and stimulants like caffeine, alcohol and nicotine before bed also helps.”

30s and 40sWomen in their thirties and forties

generally need seven and a half to eight hours of sleep. However, work and family responsibilities may put sleep on the backburner.

While napping with the children may seem tempting, if the nap lasts longer than 20 minutes, it could interfere with the quality of sleep you get that night. Instead, Dr. Benton recommends going to bed earlier to get ample sleep.

50s and aboveThe sleep patterns you’ll have for the

remainder of your life begin to surface in your 50s. However, for many women, the arrival of menopause can disturb their sleep schedules. Menopause-related hormonal changes and hot flashes can make it difficult for women in this age group to obtain the six and a half hours of sleep they need.

“One key to more restful sleep is relaxing about an hour before bed,” Dr. Cerrone says. “Regular exercise and increasing the time spent outdoors can also help women sleep better during menopause.”

Regardless of your age, Morristown Memorial and Overlook hospitals are here to help if you have trouble sleeping. Through a consultation session, you and your doctor will sit down and evaluate your sleep patterns to help find a cure for your sleep disorder.

dozing Through the Decadesdo you toss and turn through the night or feel drained during the day? If so, you may be one of the nearly three-fourths of American women who don’t obtain the recommended hours of sleep they need.

Golf (be)Fore SleepA new study aims to help women and men sleep better using their favorite leisure activity—golf.

“Playing golf to the best of one’s ability requires concentration, an even temper and good hand and eye coordination,” says Marc Benton, MD, co-director of the Sleep Disorder Center for Morristown Memorial Hospital. “Untreated sleep apnea can negatively affect mental and physical function. Thus, tracking a golfer’s score (handicap)

before and after treatment of sleep apnea may provide insight as to whether untreated sleep apnea can negatively affect a golfer’s score.”

Dr. Benton is looking for participants in this new study. For more information on how you can become a part of the Golf Sleep study, call 973-971-4569.

Coping with a Cancer Diagnosis

A short-term support group that meets for six to eight weeks, I Cancer Vive (I Can Survive) was created to help individuals newly diagnosed with cancer. In the meetings, attendees learn how to deal with the many aspects of a cancer diagnosis, while exploring different mind/body techniques that promote spiritual and emotional healing and wellness. Sessions include topics such as yoga, meditation, art therapy, spirituality and mindfulness. The group usually runs three times a year, and is just one of many appreciated support groups available.

“After a cancer diagnosis, you can’t go back to how you were yesterday,” says Lee Anne Caffrey, RN, MSN, oncology clinical nurse specialist for Overlook Hospital. “For many people, I Cancer Vive or another support group is the first step to learning how to live as a cancer patient and face the future with confidence.”

In the course of your life, you may have had someone suggest you attend a support group. If you didn’t go, there’s something you should know.

“People often assume support groups are depressing or upsetting, so they avoid attending,” says Catherine Owens, oncology patient services coordinator for the Carol G. Simon Cancer Center at Atlantic Health. “Many groups deal with difficult subjects, but they may also use humor, and members offer positive ways to cope with a given situation. Participation in a support group can be very beneficial.”

Here to HelpAt Atlantic Health, an array of

support groups is available to help individuals cope with conditions as well as for caregivers. Some are focused on education, while others act as a forum to discuss feelings and thoughts. From support groups that meet every week with no start or end date to those with defined beginning and end dates, Atlantic Health has a support group to meet your needs.

The following are a few conditions with support groups at Atlantic Health:• specific cancers (breast, prostate, etc.)• arthritis

• gambling addiction• diabetes• osteoporosis• chemical dependency

“Group treatment is often the treatment of choice—especially for people dealing with chemical dependency,” says Donna Hansbury, network manager of behavioral health for Atlantic Health. “However, people must be willing to participate in the group, and they may not be quite ready when first learning of a diagnosis. Once they are ready for a support or treatment group, we welcome them with open arms and help them get started quickly.”

Want a helping hand dealing with a condition or life situation? You’ll find it in the array of support groups offered through Atlantic health.Connection

Think You Might Have Mild Brain Injury?

You might have MBI if you are experiencing:• attention problems and can’t seem to concentrate• difficulty with short-term memory loss• trouble finding the right words to express yourself• vision problems• a hard time processing information• difficulty with planning and time management

A few weeks ago you were in a car accident, and your airbag didn’t inflate. the doctor said you were fine, but now you’re having problems with your vision and can’t seem to concentrate at work. could you have a mild brain injury?

A mIld brAIn InjurY (mbI) occurs when the brain is disrupted physiologically in a traumatic situation like a car accident, fall, stroke or concussion. Until recently, not much attention was paid to the condition. However, soldiers returning from Iraq with MBI have brought this diagnosis to the forefront.

Initial signs of MBI include loss of consciousness, memory loss or a feeling of being dazed or confused. The long-term effects may be much more subtle, and many people may not even know they’ve been seriously injured.

“After an accident or injury, a person may go back to his or her daily activities and not know why he or she is having attention problems, short-term memory loss, trouble speaking or difficulty processing information,” says Bonnie Feldman, speech language pathologist, MACCC, coordinator for the Mild Brain Injury Program at Atlantic Rehabilitation Institute. “He or she may know something’s wrong but can’t figure out what it is. That’s where we come in.”

On the BrainAtlantic Health’s Mild Brain Injury Program provides a

multidisciplinary approach for patients with MBI. The program concentrates on educating patients regarding the topic of Mild Brain Injury and providing strategies that allow patients to function in their usual environment. Neuropsychological testing and a screening interview are provided prior to the patient beginning the MBI program. Patients then meet with a speech and occupational therapist twice a week for � to 12 weeks, learning strategies to help them return to their normal lives.

“Individuals with mild brain injury often haven’t worked in a while and may have lost self-confidence and structure in their daily lives,” Feldman says. “Patients establish structure by using daily planners and to-do lists. Writing things down can help free up space in the brain and get them through the day more easily.”

The signs of a mild brain injury may not be

obvious to the person experiencing them. If

someone you love has been in an accident and

seems fine, be on the lookout for the symptoms

of mild brain injury (see below).

About 4 million babies are born each year in the united states, and 100,000 of these babies require special care in a neonatal intensive care unit (nIcu). With statistics like these, it’s important that parents-to-be look for a hospital that can care for their needs when the unexpected occurs, as well as provide a more comfortable setting to welcome their new baby.

A Special Place for Special Babies

fter months of great anticipation, most women deliver healthy, full-term babies. But some babies arrive early, before their

bodies are able to function on their own, or require extra care after birth due to a high-risk pregnancy. Others still may be born with health conditions that require special intervention. Sometimes these special

circumstances are known in advance. Other times, they’re unexpected.

When the unexpected happens, the NICU at Morristown Memorial Hospital provides the highest level of care in the state and is rated high by families for the quality of care.

“We have consistently ranked in the ��th and 100th

12 well aware12 well aware

well aware 13

percentiles for patient satisfaction, and we are well-known in the community for our advanced level of care,” says Fran Drigun, RN, MSN, director of women’s and children’s health services for Morristown Memorial Hospital. “However, we recognize that the NICU is not where a family wants to be, so we are creating a more comfortable experience for our families.”

A Quieter, More Comfortable Place to GrowMorristown Memorial Hospital is planning a new NICU unit

to open by the end of next summer. “Our NICU is busy, and privacy is a concern for our staff

and families,” says Joanne Hessler, BSN, RNC, manager of the NICU for Morristown Memorial Hospital. “Although the care is outstanding, the staff is hoping to help reduce the stress for the family with the changes we have made in the new NICU.”

Those who are familiar with the recently opened Meade Pavilion will see shades of the level of comfort and amenities provided there in this new NICU.

Historically, NICUs consist of a large, open area filled with premature and sick babies. In the new NICU, more than 30 private and semi-private suites will take the place of an open unit. New lighting options with less stimulation will be available for babies, as well as a special area for parents who need to stay for extended periods. The hospital has also decided to go as “green” as possible, choosing to be environmentally conscious in many aspects of the design.

“We will be able to provide babies with a quiet, stable, private environment in which to grow healthy and strong,” says Lawrence Skolnick, MD, co-director of neonatology for Morristown Memorial Hospital. “What could sometimes be a noisy, hectic and busy place will become a quiet and developmentally supportive place for babies. Parents are also encouraged to stay at the bedside and participate more in their baby’s care.”

Designed With Families in MindCaring for such young and often fragile patients can

sometimes be a lengthy process for both babies and parents. Relieving that anxiety in even the smallest way is a top priority for Morristown Memorial, so the new NICU will evoke a very friendly atmosphere.

Focus groups of both parents and hospital staff aided in planning the new NICU, with staff visiting various NICUs and deciding which features might be a good fit for Morristown Memorial’s patients and families.

Dr. Skolnick says that one of the best advances about the new NICU will be better communication technology. In addition, improvements made to labor and delivery areas in the hospital so far, such as the Meade Pavilion suites, have received extremely good feedback.

“We’ve gotten accolades about the Meade Pavilion,” Drigun says. “People are overwhelmed and appreciative of the new rooms and spa. We’ve always provided a safe environment and the highest quality care for new moms and babies. With the new NICU, we’re making it a more family-friendly and soothing atmosphere that gives moms peace of mind.”

7777Extra Comfort for New Mothers

Each year, more than 3,500 babies are welcomed into the world at Morristown Memorial Hospital, making it the area’s leading providerof maternal care.

mAYbe You’Ve thouGht about participating in the study of a new treatment or medication because you hope for a cure—either for yourself or for future generations of patients. Or perhaps current standard therapies have not been effective for your condition. A clinical trial may be the key to a longer life or greater relief from symptoms.

What Happens in a Clinical Trial?

Regardless of the details of the particular studies in which they participate, all volunteers receive at least the best current standard of care. Some participants also receive a new, potentially more effective therapy. Among other things, clinical trials have helped

physicians develop today’s more targeted and effective approaches to treatment of certain cancers.

What Should I Look For?It’s essential to seek a healthcare

provider with professional affiliations with leading medical organizations and academic hospitals. Atlantic Health’s partnerships with the Cancer Institute of New Jersey, Mount Sinai School of Medicine and national cooperative oncology groups provide access to the latest research from leading healthcare and academic organizations. Such relationships also enhance patients’ safety by ensuring that clinical trials have close, comprehensive oversight.

Helping Medicine

ADVANCEclinical trials are important

last steps along the path from promising laboratory

discoveries to life-changing medical advancements.

To speak to an Atlantic Health representative or to obtain a physician referral, call 1-800-247-9580 between the hours of 8:30 am and 4:30 pm. To learn more about

clinical trials, visit us online at atlantichealth.org and search “clinical trials.”

A HEALTHY WORK setting is not only good for your social life, it’s also great for your health. Why? Workplace stress can wear you down and wear your body out, possibly resulting in illness, absences, fatigue, decreased concentration and career burnout.

“When employees are happy, they have less stress and are more motivated to contribute,” says Lesley Meyer, RN, manager of human resources for Atlantic Health. “That sense of well-being helps keep them healthy.”

TAKING OUR OWN ADVICEAtlantic Health works hard to take care of its employees so they can better serve patients. On AARP’s list of top 50 companies for workers aged 50 and older, Atlantic Health recently ranked 15—up from 22 the previous year.
