An increased risk of a child developing asthma

The hospital Happy Child’s Emergency Room (ER) in the community of Sunny land recorded 120 asthma cases during 2005 out of a total of 1450 individual children seen.

The state Children with Special Health Care Needs (CSHCN) program was interested in determining if these numbers meant an increased risk of a child developing asthma in Sunny land or a possible decrease in the effectiveness of the medication taken by asthmatic children in this community. In 2005 they asked the hospital to track the number of first-time asthma diagnoses admitted to the ER versus those asthma cases who visited the ER but had been previously diagnosed as having asthma.

In 2006 out of 1370 children seen in the ER, there were 130 asthma cases: 42 were new cases, 88 had been previously diagnosed prior to the ER visit.

Is it safe to allow your personal data out in the “wild”

It’s easy to tout the benefits of cloud services, but you may be wondering if there are downsides. Think about your own use of cloud services.
