Zika: The Pandemic Threat The fi rst travel-associated case of Zika virus was reported in the U.S. in early January, and to date a total of 52 cases have been reported. One case involves a person in Texas who became infected with the Zika virus after having sexual contact with an ill individual who returned from Venezuela. Microcephaly and Guil- lian-Barre syndrome have been linked to Zika virus, but this association requires further scientifi c investigation. It’s essential that front-line healthcare providers are knowledgeable about the signs and symptoms of Zika virus and are vigilant about obtaining travel histories from patients, especially in high-risk areas. They should also be familiar with CDC guidelines related to pregnant women and newborn infants exposed to Zika virus, possible sexual transmission and preven- tion strategies of mosquito-borne illnesses.

Advance Directives: Conversations Matter Healthcare professionals have an important role in helping patients and families formulate advance directives. Despite intensive efforts, most Americans don’t have an advance directive and can face a life-threatening illness without a plan to guide their healthcare providers or relatives. End-of-life care experts stress the need for major changes in the approach to promoting ADs, including a focus on promoting ongoing dialogue between patients and healthcare providers. As patient advocates, clinicians are in a strong position to work with patients and other healthcare professionals to make these important changes occur.
