  • The Kerala Einstein Study (KES) is a research project aimed at understanding the early stages of cognitive decline, specifically the motoric cognitive risk syndrome (MCR), in older adults living in Kerala, India.
  • Initiated in 2008, the study plans to enroll 1,000 individuals aged 60 and above to identify risk factors related to MCR and compare profiles between urban and rural populations.
  • The research includes comprehensive assessments of cognitive and physical functions, medical backgrounds, lifestyle habits, and imaging tests to gather data on the prevalence and implications of predementia syndromes like MCR in the aging population of Kerala.

Background: Advances in the miniaturization of sensors and other technologies provide opportunities to collect physiological and/or functional data directly from patients participating in clinical trials. The use of such technologies in children is particularly promising. Objective, quantifiable measurements made by these technologies, often on a continuous or frequent basis, may provide more robust data than the episodic reports from caregivers that are used in traditional pediatric trials.

Objective: Stretcher transport isolators provide mobile, high-level biocontainment outside the hospital for patients with highly infectious diseases, such as Ebola virus disease. Air quality within this confined space may pose human health risks.

Methods: Ambient air temperature, relative humidity, and CO concentration were monitored within an isolator during 2 operational exercises with healthy volunteers, including a ground transport exercise of approximately 257 miles.
