The measurements of propantheline ion in biological fluids after administering propantheline bromide to man.

The measurement of propantheline ion has been accomplished in urine and plasma following administration of propantheline bromide to man. Trideuteropropantheline bromide is added to the biological fluid to act as a carrier and internal standard to quantify the propantheline ion using multiple ion monitoring. Methane was used as reactant gas but following the discovery of exchange of the trideuteromethyl group when using methane, ammonia was used for later analyses. The determination of propantheline ion in urine and plasma after administration of propantheline bromide to man is described.

The New England division Tell A Friend program implementation evaluation.

Tell A Friend (TAF) is the nationwide program of the American Cancer Society that aims to decrease breast cancer mortality by encouraging unscreened women to have mammograms using a peer-to-peer approach. An evaluation via the Collaborative Evaluation Fellows Project attempted to identify barriers and facilitators to successful implementation of TAF in the New England division. The proposed method included three surveys; this was revised because of a low response rate to the initial e-mailed survey. The actual method included one shortened survey and one follow-up survey. Results are presented for an initial and shortened survey for staff and a follow-up survey of respondents. Initial TAF implementation timelines were unrealistic, and the field staff encountered many barriers to implementation of TAF in the targeted communities. Changes are being made in training, management, and resources to ensure successful implementation. Continuous re-evaluation is planned to ensure the successful implementation and conduct of the program.
