Re: Center for Healthcare Strategies: Great Practice-based Resource
Thank you for sharing your experience in using the ACE findings clinically. Attached is an article describing our doing this in a 135,000 adult patient sample where the ACE Questions were integrated into a lengthy medical history questionnaire filled out at home as Step 1 of comprehensive medical evaluation. The benefits were major. Unexpectedly, colleague (but not patient) resistance was also significant. Our getting this information initially by an inert mechanism rather than face-to-face...

Re: TIHCER June Zoom 2020
This is a very interesting presentation, and I look forward to reading Dr. Strait's article in The Permanente Journal. The subject has great relevance for the military because there is highly suggestive evidence that ACE Scores and their generally not-understood sequelae may be more common in a volunteer military that in a draft military. Attached as Item 3 is an article describing how routine ACE screening was carried out on a very large scale in one Kaiser Department, and its effects and...

Re: TIHCER June Zoom 2020
Thank you Dr. Felitti for your kind words and helpful attachments. Your paper is so important, especially in light of the military families I work with. Your words are inspiring and transformative: "We realized that asking , initially via an inert mechanism with later followup in the exam room, coupled with listening and implicitly accepting the person who had just shared his or her dark secrets, is a powerful form of doing ."

Re: TIHCER ZOOM JULY 2020
Well done Drew and Mike. There is almost a total lack of attention to the pathophysiological impact of child hood trauma on adult physical as well as mental disease. The medical establishment has a tremendous inertia as you learned...from the clinic to the medical group to the professional society to medical schools and graduate training to clinical research there is a near ubiquitous resistance to considering the impact of childhood abuse and neglect on adults. A large CDC study showed that...

The election is upon us. In two short weeks, we voters in this country decide who will lead us for the next four years.

Or not.
What is clear is that no matter what, the ACEs movement will continue.
