Laser speckle contrast imaging and laser Doppler flowmetry reproducibly assess reflex cutaneous vasoconstriction.

Objective: Reproducibility of the reflex cutaneous vasoconstriction response is currently unknown. Our aim was to determine the test-retest reproducibility of laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI) and varying sampling depths of laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) in response to whole-body cooling.

Methods: Over two studies, nine and fourteen healthy, young adults underwent a 40-min cooling bout over two separate experiments.

Emergency Medication Access and Administration in Schools: A Focus on Epinephrine, Albuterol Inhalers, and Glucagon.

Access to emergency medications is a growing concern, particularly regarding the availability, safety, and use of these medications in schools. The purpose of this article is to report results not previously published from a national survey, specifically regarding the emergency use of epinephrine, albuterol inhalers, and glucagon. A nonexperimental, cross-sectional design was utilized for this descriptive study.
