‎Health Literacy and Older Adults: Reshaping the Landscape: Proceedings of a Workshop‎

‎Paperback / softback. New. Adults age 65 and older make up the fastest-growing segment of the U.S. population.

To gain a better understanding of the health communication challenges among older adults and their professional and family caregivers and how those challenges affect the care older adults receive the National Academies of Sciences Engineering and MedicineaEURO TMs Roundtable on Health Literacy convened a 1-day public workshop featuring presentations and discussions that examined the effect of low health literacy on the health of older adults.

‎The Role of Nonpharmacological Approaches to Pain Management: Proceedings of a Workshop‎

‎Paperback / softback. New. Pain is a leading cause of disability globally. The dramatic increase in opioid prescriptions within the past decade in the United States has contributed to the opioid epidemic the country currently faces magnifying the need for longer term solutions to treat pain. The substantial burden of pain and the ongoing opioid crisis have attracted increased attention in medical and public policy communities resulting in a revolution in thinking about how pain is managed. This new thinking acknowledges the complexity and biopsychosocial nature of the pain experience and the need for multifaceted pain management approaches with both pharmacological and nonpharmacological therapies. The magnitude and urgency of the twin problems of chronic pain and opioid addiction combined with the changing landscape of pain management prompted the National Academies of Sciences Engineering and Medicine to convene a workshop on December 4aEURO"5 2018 in Washington DC. The workshop brought together a diverse group of stakeholders to discuss the current status of nonpharmacological approaches to pain management gaps and future directions. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop. paperback‎

‎In-Time Aviation Safety Management: Challenges and Research for an Evolving Aviation System‎

‎Paperback / softback. New. Decades of continuous efforts to address known hazards in the national airspace system NAS and to respond to issues illuminated by analysis of incidents and accidents have made commercial airlines the safest mode of transportation. The task of maintaining a high level of safety for commercial airlines is complicated by the dynamic nature of the NAS. The number of flights by commercial transports is increasing; air traffic control systems and procedures are being modernized to increase the capacity and efficiency of the NAS; increasingly autonomous systems are being developed for aircraft and ground systems and small aircraftaEURO"most notably unmanned aircraft systemsaEURO"are becoming much more prevalent. As the NAS evolves to accommodate these changes aviation safety programs will also need to evolve to ensure that changes to the NAS do not inadvertently introduce new risks. Real-time system-wide safety assurance RSSA is one of six focus areas for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration NASA aeronautics program. NASA envisions that an RSSA system would provide a continuum of information analysis and assessment that supports awareness and action to mitigate risks to safety. Maintaining the safety of the NAS as it evolves will require a wide range of safety systems and practices some of which are already in place and many of which need to be developed. This report identifies challenges to establishing an RSSA system and the high-priority research that should be implemented by NASA and other interested parties in government industry and academia to expedite development of such a system. paperback‎
