Management of teenage pregnancies in three different health care settings.

A retrospective study was undertaken to determine if differences existed in obstetric outcome, contraceptive usage, and repeat pregnancy rates of teenage patients cared for in three different health care settings. The sites included the Rochester Adolescent Maternity Project (RAMP), a traditional obstetric clinic, and a neighborhood health center. Comparison of the three groups revealed that RAMP patients experienced a lower incidence of anemia and preeclampsia than patients in the other programs. At one year postpartum, 25% of the hospital clinic patients were using contraception compared to 45% for the health center and 49% for RAMP patients, compared to 15.8% for the health center and 6.5% for the RAMP group.

Sulfuric acid and streptococci clearance from respiratory tracts of mice.

The inhalation of 15 mg/cu m (3.2mu count median diameter) of H2SO4 aerosol for four hours after exposure to radioactive aerosol resulted in a reduction in the rate of clearance of nonviable streptococci from the lungs and noses of mice. A second exposure to H2SO4 lasting 90 minutes (15 mg/cu m, 3.2mu count median diameter) for four days prior to the radioactive aerosol resulted in a reduced rate of clearance of nonviable streptococci from the noses but not the lungs. Neither of these exposure regimens caused an alteration in the rate of reduction of viable streptococci from the lungs or noses. Inhalation of 1.5 mg/cu m of H2SO4 (0.6mu coung median diameter) for four daily 90-minute exposures prior to, or for four hours after exposure to Streptococcus caused no alteration in the normal rate of clearance of viable or nonviable streptococci from the noses or lungs.
