UAMS, KATV Launch Get Healthy Arkansas™ UAMS, KATV Launch Get Healthy Arkansas™ UAMS Expands Video Conferences To Improve Cancer Care in South Arkansas UAMS Expands Video Conferences To Improve Cancer Care in South Arkansas, LITTLE ROCK – The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) is expanding its video conference network in six counties in south Arkansas to link more local physicians with cancer experts here. UAMS has received a grant from the Office for the Advancement of Telehealth in the Health Resources Services Administration, a division of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, to expand oncology education and direct patient consultation via interactive video in Bradley, Calhoun, Ouachita, Polk, Hempstead, and Union Counties. The grant of $736,362 is for three years. Local hospitals will contribute another $408,000 to the project. “There are very few oncology specialists in south Arkansas,” said Ann Bailey Bynum, Ed.D., director of the UAMS Rural Hospital Program. “They have only two medical oncologists and one radiation oncologist serving a rural population of almost 200,000. We want to decrease health care provider isolation in those areas. We think this will increase communication and provide a greater integration of services.” Living conditions in the counties covered by the grant are some of Arkansas’ worst. They have a disproportionate number of low-income, elderly, and minority residents and suffer some of the highest cancer death rates in the state. In the two-year period that ended in June 2002, 523 cancer patients were referred to the Arkansas Cancer Research Center (ACRC) at UAMS from the six counties. “These are usually some of the most challenging and difficult cases to treat,” Bynum said. Expansion of the interactive video network will allow highly trained cancer specialists at ACRC to provide public education in a long-distance classroom-like setting. In addition they can consult directly with patients and their local physicians, make diagnoses, and conduct follow-up visits. Thanks to interactive video, patients will be exposed to the kind of multi-disciplinary team approach that is rarely available in their hometown clinics and physician offices. UAMS will expand interactive video programming already available at Bradley County Medical Center in Warren, Mena Medical Center, Ouachita County Medical Center in Camden, and the UAMS South Arkansas Area Health Education Center in El Dorado. It also will install new videoconferencing equipment at the Community Health Center in Hampton, the Migrant Health Center in Hope, the Medical Center of South Arkansas in El Dorado, and the Arkansas Cancer Research Center (ACRC) at UAMS. New interactive video equipment, including telemicroscopes, electronic stethoscopes, and oral exam cameras, is now being installed in the various locations. Transmission equipment will soon be set up at ACRC. The grant will also pay the salary of a full-time coordinator, and partially fund the salaries of nine other employees, including six site coordinators, one in each county.

Gary Biggs to Host Hearing on Public Health Nov. 3 Rep. Gary Biggs to Host Hearing on Public Health Nov. 3 Tobacco Funds Help Arkansas Aging Initiative PINE BLUFF – Thanks in part to the state’s tobacco settlement funds, Arkansas’ fifth satellite center for geriatric education and clinical care, the South Central Center on Aging, opened here today. The Arkansas Aging Initiative, a program of the Donald W. Reynolds Center on Aging at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS), established the center in partnership with Jefferson Regional Medical Center (JRMC) and the UAMS Area Health Education Center (AHEC) Pine Bluff. The initiative is a component of the state’s program to spend tobacco settlement funds on health promotion. The center is in the I-530 Medical Mall on Dusty Lake Drive. Dale Terrell, M.D., a geriatrician, is director of the center, which will provide comprehensive health education, patient care and coordination of services by an interdisciplinary team including a geriatrician, advanced practice nurses, physical and occupational therapists, pharmacists, nutritionists, and social workers. The center provides primary and consultation services, and may provide specialty clinics and rehabilitation services for patients as needed. The center accepts patients who are 65 and older. A referral is not necessary in most cases. Theresa Horton, M.N.Sc, APN, is education director. The center also will train caregivers to care for senior citizens in their homes, will offer community education about aging and associated health problems, and will maintain a resource library for patients and their families. The center’s steering committee includes Tamer Alsebai, M.D., William Nuckolls, M.D., Freeman Montaque, M.D., James Lindsey, M.D., H. Marks Attwood, M.D., Dale Terrell, M.D., Robert Atkinson, Mark Winslow, Julie Bridgforth, Wilbur West, Larnell Davis, Diann Williams, M.S.N., R.N., Betty Bradshaw, J. Maples, Jr., R.N. and Theresa Horton, M.N.Sc., APN, Pine Bluff, and Claudia Beverly, Ph.D., R.N., FAAN, Ronni Chernoff, Ph.D., R.D., Robin McAtee, B.S.N., MHSA and Gwynn Davis, R.N., M.N.Sc. The goal of the tobacco-funded Arkansas Aging Initiative is to ensure that all older Arkansans have appropriate health care within 50 miles of their homes. UAMS received an allocation from the state’s share of the 1998 nationwide tobacco settlement to establish seven satellites of the Donald W. Reynolds Center on Aging, a comprehensive center for patient care, research on aging, and advanced training of physicians and other health care professionals who specialize in geriatrics, the medical specialty devoted to elderly patients. In each community, the initiative has collaborated with one or more local health care agencies to create the satellite. Working with local partners, UAMS has established centers in Springdale, El Dorado, Jonesboro and Texarkana and plans centers in Fort Smith and West Memphis. UAMS Receives $665,000 to Study Depression and Drug Abuse UAMS has received a five-year grant of $665,000 from the National Institute on Drug Abuse to study best practices for treating depression in substance abusers. UAMS Breast Cancer Expert Receives Hickingbotham Award from Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation V. Suzanne Klimberg, M.D., director of the Breast Cancer Program in the Arkansas Cancer Research Center (ACRC) at UAMS, recently received the Hickingbotham Award for Service from the Arkansas affiliate of the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. “You reach beyond professional interests to the interest and needs of the Komen Foundation and the cause of breast cancer,” President Barbara Daugherty of the affiliate told Klimberg in notifying her of the award. The Komen Foundation has been a generous supporter of the Breast Cancer Program at UAMS, contributing more than $500,000 to the program in recent years. It earlier awarded Klimberg a two-year fellowship to train surgeons in the comprehensive and special needs of breast cancer patients. Employees of UAMS had the largest team in the October 4 Race for the Cure™ in Little Rock. The race is an annual fundraiser for the Komen Foundation. UAMS Adds Degree in Medical Dosimetry, One of First in Nation LITTLE ROCK – The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) is starting one of the nation’s first degree programs in medical dosimetry and will offer bachelor degrees and advanced certificates. Medical dosimetrists work as part of radiation therapy teams in hospitals and radiation therapy centers, calculating the proper doses of radiation for individual patients. Dosimetrists use computer programs and three-dimensional images to calculate the doses. The Arkansas Higher Education Coordinating Board recently gave final approval to UAMS to offer the degree. The other dosimetry programs are in Texas, California, Massachusets, Georgia, and North Carolina. Nikos Papanikolaou, Ph.D., will direct the medical dosimetry program, which will be part of the Department of Radiation Therapy in the UAMS College of Health Related Professions. Debra Tomlinson chairs the department, jointly supported by CARTI (Central Arkansas Radiation Therapy Institute). The program will accept its first class in the fall of 2004. For more information about the degree/certificate program, call the Department of Radiation Therapy at (501) 660-7623.

Kieber-Emmons is a professor of pathology in the UAMS College of Medicine and director of breast cancer research development at the Arkansas Cancer Research Center (ACRC) at UAMS. UAMS established the academic position to honor former state representative Josetta Edwards Wilkins of Pine Bluff, who was the lead sponsor of legislation in 1997 to allocate $4 million to UAMS for breast cancer research. UAMS placed $1 million in an endowment that will generate annual income for research. As the first chairholder, Kieber-Emmons will receive the endowment income to fund his research. University of Arkansas System President B. Alan Sugg, Ph.D.; state Sen. Henry Wilkins IV; and state Rep. Jay Bradford spoke at the installation ceremony, called an investiture, in Sam M. Walton Auditorium at the ACRC. Sugg presented a medallion representing the academic chair as a memento to Dr. Wilkins. Chancellor I. Dodd Wilson, M.D., presided over the ceremony and, with Dean E. Albert Reece, M.D., Ph.D., M.B.A., presented a second medallion to Kieber-Emmons. Ralph D. Sanderson, Ph.D., director of basic research at the ACRC and also a professor of pathology in the College of Medicine, and Heinz Kohler, M.D., Ph.D., of the University of Kentucky, spoke at the ceremony. Afterward, James Y. Suen, M.D., director of the ACRC, welcomed guests to a reception for Kieber-Emmons. Jonesboro Resident Spends Summer as Partner in Research at UAMS Jonesboro Resident Spends Summer as Partner in Research at UAMS as Partner in Research at UAMS, Adam Woodruff, a Jonesboro resident and second-year student in the College of Medicine at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS), spent the summer learning about cancer research, patient care and education.
