RENO-SPARKS INDIAN COLONY SPECIAL DIABETES PROGRAM FOR INDIANS, 3-NATIONS WELLNESS CENTER - <![CDATA[THE RENO-SPARKS INDIAN COLONY (RSIC) PROPOSES TO CONTINUE THE SPECIAL DIABETES PROGRAM FOR INDIANS (SDPI) VIA THE 3-NATIONS WELLNESS CENTER DIABETES PREVENTION PROGRAM. THE PROPOSED PROJECT WILL CONTINUE TO BE COMMUNITY-BASED SERVING OVER 5,000 ELIGIBLE NATIVE AMERICANS IN THE RSIC SERVICE DELIVERY AREA ON AN ANNUAL BUDGET OF $843,807 FOCUSING ON THE DIABETES-RELATED EDUCATION BEST PRACTICE USING CULTURALLY-APPROPRIATE, CDC-APPROVED DIABETES SELF-MANAGEMENT EDUCATION CURRICULA, COMMUNITY WELLNESS ACTIVITIES, NUTRITION EDUCATION PROJECTS, FOOT EXAMS, EYE/DENTAL EXAMS, CONTRACTED SPECIALISTS, GLUCOSE MONITORS AND DIABETES SURVEILLANCE. THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT CONDUCTED INDEPENDENTLY IN 2022 BY THE RSIC DIABETES AND COMMUNITY HEALTH PROGRAMS DETERMINED THAT THE TOP 3 HEALTH CHALLENGES IN THE COMMUNITY WERE OVERWEIGHT/OBESITY (71%), JOINT/BACK PAIN (50%), AND DIABETES (28%) FOLLOWED CLOSELY BY MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES (25%) AND FOOD INSECURITY (21%). THIS IS IN LINE WITH DATA OBTAINED FROM THE 2020 WEBAUDIT (2019) REFLECTS A PRE- PANDEMIC RATE OF OBESE INDIVIDUALS (BMI >30.0KG/M2) OF 68% VERSUS 66% IN THE PHOENIX IHS AREA. OBSERVATIONS OF COMMUNITY NEEDS DURING THE PANDEMIC REFLECTED GROWING FOOD INSECURITY. THIS WAS LARGELY DUE TO COMMUNITY ISOLATION, QUARANTINE REQUIREMENTS, FOOD DESERTS, & ECONOMIC HARDSHIP BROUGHT ON BY THE PANDEMIC. THE RSIC DIABETES PROGRAM’S COLLABORATION WITH THE FOOD BANK OF NORTHERN NEVADA (FBNN) VIA THAT ORGANIZATION’S MONTHLY MOBILE HARVEST FOOD INSECURITY PREVENTION PROGRAM SAW THE PRE-PANDEMIC NUMBER OF INDIVIDUALS SERVED TRIPLE ONCE THE PANDEMIC’S HARDSHIPS TOOK EFFECT. OBESITY AND FOOD INSECURITY ARE KNOWN TO BE HIGHLY ASSOCIATED WITH WORSENING RATES OF DIABETES AND OTHER ASSOCIATED MARKERS OF THAT DISEASE. STRESS VIA INCREASED MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES BROUGHT ABOUT BY THE PANDEMIC ONLY SERVED TO EXACERBATE THOSE ISSUES. ALONGSIDE COLLABORATION WITH THE BEHAVIORAL, COMMUNITY HEALTH, AND OTHER RSIC DEPARTMENTS, THE DIABETES PROGRAM STRIVES TO REDUCE THE PREVALENCE OF DIABETES AND ASSOCIATED COMORBIDITIES AMONG RSIC TRIBAL MEMBERS. SINCE ITS INCEPTION, THE DIABETES PROGRAM HAS TARGETED THESE ACTIVITIES: - 2 REGISTERED DIETITIANS TO COUNSEL ON PREVENTION & MANAGEMENT USING DIABETES SELF-MANAGEMENT TOOLS & CURRICULA - COLLABORATED WITH RSIC COMMUNITY HEALTH, BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, AND SENIOR CENTER ON REGULAR MONTHLY EDUCATION EVENTS TO INCREASE OUTREACH, ENGAGE INDIVIDUALS IN SELF-CARE, & EDUCATE ABOUT COMORBIDITIES & LIFESTYLE CHANGE - ENGAGED YOUTH, ADULTS, & ELDERS IN ACTIVE EVENTS SUCH AS INDIVIDUALIZED EXERCISE REGIMEN, ROLLER SKATING, MOUNTAIN BIKING, HIKING, BOWLING AND SOFTBALL LEAGUES TO DEVELOP POSITIVE ASSOCIATIONS WITH PHYSICAL ACTIVITY FOR IMPROVED GLUCOSE MANAGEMENT - DEMONSTRATED THE USE OF BUDGET FRIENDLY, NUTRITIOUS FOODS BY IMPLEMENTING A MONTHLY (ADULTS) OR BIMONTHLY (KIDS) COOKING CLASS PROGRAM FOR ALL ELIGIBLE NATIVE INDIVIDUALS -SUPPORTED GOOD FOOT, EYE, & DENTAL CARE BY INCENTIVIZING RECOMMENDED EXAMS WITH SHOES, EYEGLASSES, OR DENTAL FUNDING - EMPLOYED A CONTINUOUS GLUCOSE MONITOR PROGRAM TO ARM UNCONTROLLED DIABETICS WITH EXPANDED TOOLS TO BRING GLUCOSE AND A1C TO TARGET LEVELS - CONTRACTED A PODIATRIST TO FURTHER ELEVATE GOOD FOOT CARE AND PREVENT DIABETES-RELATED AMPUTATION - CONTRACTED AN ACUPUNCTURIST, UTILIZING NON-PHARMACEUTICAL APPROACHES TO MANAGE DIABETES-RELATED NEUROPATHY - CONTRACTED A PEDIATRIC ENDOCRINOLOGIST TO SUPPORT PEDIATRIC DIABETIC PATIENTS AND KIDS AT-RISK FOR DIABETES - DEVELOPED A FOOD PANTRY PROGRAM TO FIGHT FOOD INSECURITY ALONGSIDE HEALTHFUL HOME COOKING EDUCATION AND DIABETIC RECIPES PER THE COMMUNITY-IDENTIFIED HEALTH CHALLENGES, THE RELEVANT DATA, AND ONGOING AND UPCOMING ACTIVITIES, THE RSIC DIABETES PROGRAM WILL SEEK TO CONTINUE TO IMPACT RATES OF DIABETES BY IMPLEMENTING THESE STRATEGIES TO PREVENT TYPE II DIABETES.]]>

VALIDATION OF A NOVEL EEG-BASED NEURODIAGNOSTIC PLATFORM FOR ASSESSING COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT AND ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE - PROJECT ABSTRACT ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE (AD) IS THE MOST COMMON CAUSE OF DEMENTIA, ACCOUNTING FOR 80% OF ALL DEMENTIA DIAGNOSES. IN JULY 2023, THE ALZHEIMER’S ASSOCIATION (AA) POSTED AN UPDATE TO THEIR JOINT NIA-AA POSITION ON DIAGNOSING AD. IT NOW REQUIRES BIOMARKER EVIDENCE OF AD-TYPE PATHOLOGY FOR DIAGNOSIS WHILE ALSO DETERMINING THAT BIOMARKER TESTS SHOULD NOT BE ORDERED OR INTERPRETED IN THE ABSENCE OF CLINICAL CONTEXT. THIS NEW PATH FOR DIAGNOSING AND TREATING AD INTENSIFIES THE NEED TO EASE THE EARLY, ACCURATE, AND ACCESSIBLE IDENTIFICATION OF THE PATIENTS WHO SHOULD UNDERGO AD BIOMARKER TESTING. UNFORTUNATELY, TODAY’S TECHNIQUES FOR EVALUATING COGNITIVE STATUS AND INDICATING THE APPROPRIATENESS OF AD BIOMARKER TESTING DO NOT MEET THE CLINICAL NEED. THESE WEAKNESSES HINDER PROPER DIAGNOSIS OF COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT, THEREBY LIMITING IDENTIFICATION OF CANDIDATES FOR AD BIOMARKER TESTING AND TREATMENT OF AD. TO ADDRESS THESE PROBLEMS, SPARK NEURO IS DEVELOPING SPARK SCAN, A STANDARDIZED, OBJECTIVE, NON-INVASIVE, AND COST-EFFECTIVE DIAGNOSTIC TOOL CAPABLE OF IDENTIFYING AND STAGING COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT THAT IS HIGHLY SENSITIVE TO THE PRESENCE OF AD. IN THE PROPOSED PHASE II SBIR PROJECT, SPARK NEURO WILL BUILD UPON FINDINGS FROM A SUCCESSFUL PHASE I IN PREPARATION FOR AN FDA DE NOVO SUBMISSION AND EVENTUAL COMMERCIALIZATION. THIS EFFORT WILL INCLUDE A PIVOTAL CLINICAL STUDY (N=200) THAT WILL VALIDATE ALGORITHM PERFORMANCE (AIM 1). FOLLOWING THIS VALIDATION, SPARK NEURO WILL FINALIZE PRODUCT SOFTWARE AND CLOUD-BASED INFRASTRUCTURE, COMPLETING VERIFICATION AND VALIDATION (“V&V) (AIM 2).

DEVELOPING A NOVEL EEG-BASED INDEX FOR EVALUATING AMYLOID AND TAU BURDEN IN ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE - PROJECT SUMMARY ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE (AD) IS A PROGRESSIVE, NEURODEGENERATIVE CONDITION THAT IMPACTS 44 MILLION PEOPLE GLOBALLY. IT IS THE MOST COMMON CAUSE OF DEMENTIA—ACCOUNTING FOR 80% OF ALL DEMENTIA DIAGNOSES—AND PREDOMINANTLY AFFECTS OLDER PEOPLE. TO DATE, AD HAS NO CURE. THUS, IT IS IMPERATIVE TO DIAGNOSE PATIENTS AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE TO MAXIMIZE THE EFFICACY OF SYMPTOM MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES. HOWEVER, EXISTING AD DIAGNOSTIC AND MONITORING OPTIONS REMAIN SUBPAR, LEAVING URGENT NEED FOR SENSITIVE, RELIABLE, AND CONVENIENT METHODS TO MEASURE AD. NEW RESEARCH SUGGESTS THAT ELECTROENCEPHALOGRAPHY (EEG) -BASED BIOMARKERS CAN ASSESS NEURAL DEGENERATION CAUSED BY AD LONG BEFORE TISSUE LOSS OR BEHAVIORAL SYMPTOMS APPEAR. SPARK NEURO AIMS TO UNLOCK THE FULL POTENTIAL OF EEG THROUGH A NOVEL SOFTWARE PLATFORM: SPARK SCAN. COMBINING EEG WITH THE CAPABILITIES OF MACHINE LEARNING, SPARK SCAN BETTER ASSESSES COGNITIVE HEALTH AND NEURODEGENERATION, AIDING THE DIAGNOSIS OF AD. IN THE PROPOSED DIRECT-TO-PHASE II SBIR PROJECT, THE COMPANY WILL ENHANCE THE EXISTING SPARK PLATFORM BY DEVELOPING A NOVEL ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE PATHOLOGY INDEX THAT TRACKS PATIENT AMYLOID AND TAU BURDEN. DEVELOPED WITH CSF DATA COLLECTED FROM JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY, THE PATHOLOGY INDEX WILL BE A CONTINUOUS SCORE THAT CORRESPONDS TO A PATIENT’S PATHOLOGICAL DISEASE BURDEN. AFTER UPDATING THE SOFTWARE, THE SPARK TEAM WILL EMPLOY HUMAN FACTORS TESTING TO ENHANCE THE USABILITY AND UTILITY OF THE UPDATED PLATFORM AND CLINICAL REPORT BEFORE SUBMITTING FINDINGS FOR FDA DE NOVO APPROVAL. THIS WORK WILL PROGRESS THE SPARK PLATFORM BY PROVIDING A GRANULAR MEASURE OF AD-RELATED PATHOLOGY, EXTENDING BEYOND CURRENT CAPABILITIES.

DELIVERING TRANSCUTANEOUS AURICULAR NEUROSTIMULATION AS AN ADJUNCT TREATMENT FOR NEONATAL OPIOID WITHDRAWAL SYNDROME - NEONATAL OPIOID WITHDRAWAL SYNDROME (NOWS) IS A CONDITION IN WHICH INFANTS UNDERGO WITHDRAWAL AFTER EXPOSURE TO PRESCRIPTION OR NON-PRESCRIPTION OPIOIDS SUCH AS METHADONE OR HEROIN IN UTERO. NOWS BABIES EXHIBIT HYPERIRRITABILITY OF THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM AND RESPIRATORY, GASTROINTESTINAL, AND AUTONOMIC SYMPTOMS. THESE SYMPTOMS USUALLY APPEAR WITHIN 48 TO 72 HOURS AFTER BIRTH. AS OF 2012, AN INFANT WITH NOWS WAS BORN EVERY 25 MINUTES IN THE US, ACCOUNTING FOR MORE THAN $1.5 BILLION IN NATIONAL HEALTHCARE EXPENDITURES. BETWEEN 2000– 2012, NATIONAL RATES OF NOWS INCREASED 383% FROM 1.2 PER 1000 BIRTHS TO 5.8 PER 1000 BIRTHS. THESE INFANTS FREQUENTLY REQUIRE HOSPITAL STAY IN A NEONATAL INTENSIVE CARE UNIT (NICU) WITH AN AVERAGE HOSPITAL STAY OF 25 DAYS AT AN AVERAGE TREATMENT COST OF $66K. CURRENTLY, NO NATIONWIDE STANDARD OF CARE EXISTS FOR MANAGING NOWS. TREATMENT OF NOWS USUALLY FOLLOWS A MULTIMODAL REGIME CENTERED ON CONTROLLED WITHDRAWAL AND REPLACEMENT DRUG THERAPY WITH ORAL MORPHINE. HOWEVER, TREATMENTS THAT REDUCE THE NEED FOR NEUROTOXIC OPIOIDS ARE A HIGH PRIORITY IN THIS VULNERABLE POPULATION. IN FACT, A LARGE MULTICENTER RANDOMIZED STUDY OF 898 INFANTS DEMONSTRATED THAT, ALTHOUGH MORPHINE IS EFFECTIVE IN DECREASING CLINICAL SIGNS OF PAIN, IT CAN CAUSE SIGNIFICANT ACUTE ADVERSE EFFECTS SUCH AS CHANGES IN HEART AND RESPIRATORY RATE, HYPOTENSION, NASOGASTRIC FEEDS, AND NEED FOR INTRAVENOUS SUPPLEMENTAL NUTRITION. BASED ON THE VULNERABILITY OF THE POPULATION AND THE POTENTIAL FOR ADVERSE EFFECTS, MORPHINE SHOULD BE USED JUDICIOUSLY AND CAUTIOUSLY. THE AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICS RECOMMENDS ATTEMPTING THE USE OF NON-PHARMACOLOGIC TREATMENT, WHICH INCLUDES PLACING THE INFANT IN A DARK AND QUIET ENVIRONMENT, SWADDLING, ROCKING, BREASTFEEDING, AND PROVIDING HIGH-CALORIE NUTRITION IN FREQUENT SMALL FEEDINGS (KNOWN AS EAT, SLEEP, CONSOLE OR ESC), AMONG OTHER TECHNIQUES. WHEN USED APPROPRIATELY, SUCH NON-PHARMACOLOGICAL INTERVENTIONS HAVE RESULTED IN A REDUCTION IN LENGTH OF STAY, LENGTH OF TREATMENT (LOT), AND PERCENTAGE OF INFANTS REQUIRING PHARMACOTHERAPY. WITH NOWS BABIES ALREADY UNDER STRESS FROM OPIOID WITHDRAWAL, A NON-PHARMACOLOGICAL TREATMENT MAY GREATLY BENEFIT THESE PATIENTS, LOWERING THE NEED FOR ADDITIONAL MEDICATIONS AND POTENTIALLY REDUCING THEIR HOSPITAL STAY. OUR PHASE I EFFORT WAS THE FIRST STUDY INVESTIGATING THE EFFECTS OF TRANSCUTANEOUS AURICULAR NEUROSTIMULATION (TAN), AS AN ADJUNCT THERAPY TO ORAL MORPHINE, IN THE REDUCTION OF THE OPIOID WITHDRAWAL SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS IN NEWBORNS WITH NOWS. ACROSS ALL STUDY PARTICIPANTS, TAN WAS SHOWN TO BE SAFE, WELL-TOLERATED, AND FACILITATE THE RAPID WEANING OF ORAL MORPHINE. IF PROVEN SAFE AND EFFECTIVE IN FUTURE TRIALS, TAN MAY EXPAND NON-PHARMACOLOGICAL TREATMENT OPTIONS FOR THESE INFANTS. BUILDING ON OUR PHASE I SUCCESS, WE PROPOSE TO USE OUR ROO™ TAN SYSTEM AS AN ADJUNCT THERAPY TO REDUCE THE SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS ASSOCIATED WITH NOWS.

THE PROPOSED PROJECT AIMS TO ADDRESS AN UNPRECEDENTED CHILDREN’S MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS IN WASHINGTON STATE THROUGH THREE OBJECTIVES: (1) EXPANDING THE EXISTING BRIDGE OF HOPE COLLABORATIVE CARE MODEL (COCM) WITHIN FOUR PEDIATRIC CLINICS IN PIERCE AND KING COUNTIES; (2) ADDING THE BRIDGE OF HOPE MODEL WITHIN TWO NEW CLINICS IN THE STATE OF WASHINGTON; AND (3) EXPANDING INFANT AND EARLY CHILDHOOD MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES FOR CHILDREN FROM BIRTH TO SIX YEARS OLD WITHIN EXISTING SITES. THE BRIDGE OF HOPE MODEL HAS RECEIVED STATEWIDE AND NATIONAL ATTENTION DUE TO ITS POSITIVE OUTCOMES THAT ARE REVERSING THE DECADES-LONG TRENDS OF POOR MENTAL HEALTH OUTCOMES IN WASHINGTON STATE. BRIDGE OF HOPE USES THE COCM DEVELOPED BY THE UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON, ADVANCED INTEGRATED MENTAL HEALTH SOLUTIONS (AIMS) CENTER, AND EVIDENCE-BASED TREATMENTS CALLED FIRST APPROACH SKILLS TRAINING (FAST) DEVELOPED BY SEATTLE CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL THAT ARE DESIGNED TO UPSTREAM MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES TO CHILDREN AND FAMILIES AS EARLY IN LIFE AS POSSIBLE THROUGH A PREVENTION LENS AND FULLY INTEGRATED INTO PRIMARY CARE. THE POPULATION OF FOCUS IS CHILDREN AND YOUNG ADULTS FROM BIRTH TO AGE TWENTY-ONE; HOWEVER, THE EXACT AGE RANGE SERVED AT EACH SITE WILL DEPEND ON THEIR STAGE OF IMPLEMENTATION. THE GEOGRAPHICAL CATCHMENT AREA FOR THE EXISTING SITES IS PIERCE COUNTY, SOUTH KING COUNTY, AND THE GREATER PUGET SOUND, BUT NEW SITES MAY BE IN ANY COUNTY IN THE STATE. HOPESPARKS SERVES UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS IN URBAN AND RURAL AREAS AND PATIENTS WITH MEDICAID AS WELL AS THOSE WITH COMMERCIAL INSURANCE. ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS OF THIS PEDIATRIC COCM INCLUDE, (1) A MULTIDISCIPLINARY, PATIENT-CENTERED CARE TEAM THAT INCLUDES A PRIMARY CARE PROVIDER (PCP), PEDIATRIC INTEGRATED THERAPISTS, A PSYCHIATRIC CONSULTANT, THE PATIENT’S FAMILY/CAREGIVERS, AND SOMETIMES THE PATIENT’S SCHOOL OR OTHER COMMUNITY AGENCIES; (2) POPULATION-BASED ELEMENTS, WHICH INCLUDE SYSTEMATIC SCREENING, LONGITUDINAL OUTCOMES MEASUREMENT, STEPPED APPROACH TO CARE, AND COLLABORATION FOR REFERRALS FOR THE PATIENT AND/OR THEIR FAMILIES; (3) MEASUREMENT-BASED TREATMENT, SCHEDULED SYSTEMATIC CASELOAD REVIEW MEETINGS, AND TIMELY TREATMENT ADJUSTMENTS THROUGH REGULAR REVIEW BY A PSYCHIATRIC CONSULTANT; (4) EVIDENCE-BASED TREATMENTS WHEREIN PCPS ARE TRAINED TO PROVIDE BRIEF BEHAVIORAL INTERVENTIONS APPROPRIATE FOR PEDIATRICS AND TO USE PSYCHIATRIC MEDICATIONS; AND (5) ACCOUNTABLE ORGANIZATIONS IN WHICH PRACTICE- AND PROVIDER-LEVEL PERFORMANCE METRICS DRIVE QUALITY IMPROVEMENT, AND FAMILY ADVOCATES PROVIDE INPUT ON PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT AND QUALITY IMPROVEMENT. THE PROPOSED PROJECT WILL EXPAND ACCESS TO THIS HIGH-QUALITY, INTEGRATED COCM WITHIN FOUR EXISTING SITES AND TWO NEW SITES, IMPACTING CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES THROUGHOUT THE PROJECT YEAR. ON MARCH 26, 2021, GOVERNOR JAY INSLEE ISSUED AN EMERGENCY PROCLAMATION REGARDING THE CHILD AND YOUTH MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS IN WASHINGTON STATE. WASHINGTON FACES A SEVERE SHORTAGE OF MENTAL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS, AND THE MOST VULNERABLE POPULATIONS, SUCH AS CHILDREN AND YOUTH OF COLOR, LQBTQIA+ CHILDREN AND YOUTH, CHILDREN LIVING IN RURAL AREAS, AND CHILDREN AND YOUTH WITH INTELLECTUAL AND/OR DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES, MAY BE AT INCREASED RISK OF MENTAL HEALTH CONCERNS DUE TO SYSTEMIC RACISM, SEXISM, HOMOPHOBIA, AND OTHER TYPES OF OPPRESSION AND MARGINALIZATION. HOPESPARKS WILL ADDRESS SEVERAL ESTABLISHED NEEDS FOR CHILDREN IN THE STATE OF WASHINGTON, SPECIFICALLY ACCESS TO MENTAL HEALTH CARE AND GAPS IN SERVICES, AS WELL AS OPERATIONAL BARRIERS THAT PREVENT PROVIDERS FROM IMPLEMENTING INTEGRATED CARE MODELS.

DELIVERING TRANSCUTANEOUS AURICULAR NEUROSTIMULATION TO IMPROVE TREATMENT RETENTION IN OPIOID USE DISORDER - CURRENTLY, THE UNITED STATES IS EXPERIENCING AN OPIOID EPIDEMIC IN THE USE OF PRESCRIPTION AND NON-PRESCRIPTION DRUGS THAT HAS CONTINUED TO RISE SINCE THE 1990’S. IN 2005, THERE WERE AN ESTIMATED 10 MILLION CHRONIC PAIN PARTICIPANTS RECEIVING DAILY, LONG-TERM TREATMENT WITH OPIOIDS. THE CONTINUING INCREASE IN OPIOID CONSUMPTION FROM 2005 TO 2017 SUGGESTS THAT THE NUMBER MAY NOW EXCEED 11 MILLION. UNFORTUNATELY, THE NEED FOR SAFE AND EFFECTIVE OPIOID WITHDRAWAL TREATMENT IS DEMANDING AND LARGELY UNMET. A PRIMARY CONSTRAINT ON THE OVERALL PERCENTAGE OF PHARMACOTHERAPY TREATMENT RECIPIENTS IS THE LIMITED AVAILABILITY OF LICENSED PHYSICIANS THAT CAN PRESCRIBE OPIOID-BASED PHARMACOTHERAPIES. PRESCRIPTION OPIOIDS POSE A VARIABLE LEVEL OF RISK ON RESPIRATORY DEPRESSION AND ABNORMAL CARDIAC ACTIVITY AND CAN ONLY BE OBTAINED FROM LICENSED OPIOID TREATMENT PROGRAMS. IN CONTRAST, NON-OPIOID PHARMACOTHERAPIES (LOFEXIDINE AND NALTREXONE) DO NOT REQUIRE A LICENSE, AND HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BE MORE WIDELY ADMINISTERED. HOWEVER, THE TREATMENT EFFICACY AND RETENTION OF THESE MEDICATIONS ARE LIMITED, THUS SIGNIFICANTLY FEWER PATIENTS UTILIZE NON-OPIOID VS OPIOID PHARMACOTHERAPIES. DUE TO INADEQUATE AND SCARCE TREATMENT OPTIONS FINDING AN EFFECTIVE, NON-PHARMACOLOGICAL APPROACH THAT WOULD: 1) REQUIRE MINIMAL TRAINING, 2) BE READILY AVAILABLE TO PHYSICIANS AND ADVANCED CARE PROVIDERS, 3) HAVE A MINIMAL SIDE EFFECTS PROFILE, 4) PREVENT OR ELIMINATE THE USE OF OPIOIDS, AND 5) REMOVE THE FEAR OF EXPERIENCING ACUTE/PRECIPITATED WITHDRAWAL WOULD BE CRITICAL IN IMPROVING AND EXPANDING TREATMENT FOR OPIOID ADDICTION. ABUNDANT CLINICAL EVIDENCE EXISTS FOR THE RAPID AND EFFECTIVE REDUCTION OF SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS ASSOCIATED WITH OPIOID WITHDRAWAL THROUGH VARIOUS APPROACHES OF NON-INVASIVE NEUROSTIMULATION. WE PROPOSE USING TRANSCUTANEOUS AURICULAR NEUROSTIMULATION (TANTM) AS AN ADJUVANT TO NON-OPIOID PHARMACOTHERAPIES TO IMPROVE TREATMENT RETENTION BY FURTHER REDUCING OPIOID WITHDRAWAL SYMPTOMS AND CRAVINGS. SPARK BIOMEDICAL INC., HAS DEVELOPED A TAN SYSTEM, THAT REMOVES THE LIMITATIONS OF PERCUTANEOUS NEUROSTIMULATION SYSTEMS. SPARK’S SPARROWTM THERAPY SYSTEM UTILIZES A FLEXIBLE EARPIECE WITH EMBEDDED HYDROGEL ELECTRODES THAT ADHERE TO THE SKIN, THE EARPIECE IS DISPOSABLE AFTER USE, AND DELIVERS A MORE COMFORTABLE AND PRACTICAL THERAPY. ADDITIONALLY, THIS SYSTEM IS CAPABLE OF FULLY CUSTOMIZING STIMULATION PARAMETERS TO MATCH EACH PARTICIPANTS’ THERAPEUTIC REQUIREMENTS. IT WAS HYPOTHESIZED THAT ACTIVATING AURICULAR CRANIAL NERVE BRANCHES VIA TAN WOULD CONFER A SIMILAR REDUCTION IN OPIOID WITHDRAWAL SYMPTOMS, MINUS THE DRAWBACKS OF PERCUTANEOUS NEUROSTIMULATION. THE SPARROW SYSTEM IS A WEARABLE, BATTERY-OPERATED, NEUROSTIMULATION DEVICE INTENDED TO TRANSCUTANEOUSLY STIMULATE NERVES IN AND/OR AROUND THE EAR. THE SPARROW IS CURRENTLY INDICATED AS A TRANSCUTANEOUS NERVE STIMULATOR THAT AIDS IN THE REDUCTION OF OPIOID WITHDRAWAL SYMPTOMS. THE GOAL OF THIS PROPOSED EFFORT IS TO EXPAND THE USE OF OUR SPARROW SYSTEM FOR THE REDUCTION IN OPIOID CRAVINGS AND LESSEN THE CHANCE OF RELAPSE.

THE RENO-SPARKS INDIAN COLONY IS A SELF-GOVERNANCE TRIBE OPERATING ALL THE HEALTH PROGRAMS FORMERLY MANAGED BY THE INDIAN HEALTH SERVICE, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE OFFICE OF ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH AND ENGINEERING. FOR THE PAST SIX YEARS, THE TRIBE OPERATED THE METH & SUICIDE PREVENTION INITIATIVE (MSPI) PILOT GRANT. THE BENEFIT TO THE SUICIDE PREVENTION PROGRAM IS THE AVAILABILITY OF WRAP-AROUND SERVICES FOR THE PATIENT, INCLUDING BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, MEDICAL, PHARMACY, DIABETES, RESIDENTIAL SUBSTANCE ABUSE TREATMENT, SPECIALTY CARE AND ALL OTHER HEALTH SERVICES. THE RENO-SPARKS INDIAN COLONY IS EXPERIENCING RATES OF SUICIDAL BEHAVIORS THAT ARE 30% TO 40% HIGHER THAN THAT OF OTHER PEOPLE IN NEVADA AND THE NATION. OVER THE PAST TEN YEARS THE RENO-SPARKS INDIAN COLONY HAS WORKED TO PLAN AND DEVELOP RESPONSES TO THESE ISSUES BY IMPLEMENTING PROGRAMS FOR BOTH YOUTH AND ADULTS. EXISTING ADULT PROGRAMS INCLUDE OUTPATIENT ALCOHOL/DRUG AND MENTAL HEALTH CARE, FAMILY ADVOCATE SERVICES, AND LIMITED REFERRAL TO RESIDENTIAL CARE. CURRENT YOUTH PROGRAMS FOCUS ON PREVENTION/INTERVENTION AND INCLUDE YOUTH ALCOHOL/DRUG SUPPORT GROUPS, VIOLENCE INTERVENTION, LATCH KEY GROUPS, MENTORING, A YOUTH INTERN PROGRAM AND LIMITED ACCESS TO OUTPATIENT COUNSELING. THE PROPOSED PREVENTION PROJECT WILL BUILD ON THESE EXISTING RESOURCES. THE PROJECT IS PROPOSED FOR A FIVE YEAR PERIOD TO SERVE 4,562 NATIVE AMERICANS ON AN ANNUAL BUDGET OF $300,000.

SBIR PHASE II: LARGE-SCALE CREATIVE THINKING ASSESSMENT FOR THE WORKFORCE

PURPOSE: THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) PROGRAM PROVIDES ANNUAL GRANTS ON A FORMULA BASIS TO STATES, CITIES, AND COUNTIES TO DEVELOP VIABLE URBAN COMMUNITIES BY PROVIDING DECENT HOUSING AND A SUITABLE LIVING ENVIRONMENT, AND BY EXPANDING ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES, PRINCIPALLY FOR LOW- AND MODERATE-INCOME PERSONS. THE PROGRAM IS AUTHORIZED UNDER TITLE 1 OF THE HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACT OF 1974, PUBLIC LAW 93-383, AS AMENDED 42 U.S.C. 5301 ET SEQ. THE CDBG PROGRAM COVERS FOUR DISTINCT PROGRAMS, EACH WITH THEIR OWN SET OF GOVERNING REGULATIONS: CDBG ENTITLEMENT, CDBG NON-ENTITLED COUNTIES IN HAWAII, CDBG INSULAR AREAS, AND STATE CDBG. IN THE CDBG ENTITLEMENT PROGRAM, HUD AWARDS GRANTS TO ENTITLEMENT COMMUNITY GRANTEES TO CARRY OUT A WIDE RANGE OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES. ENTITLEMENT COMMUNITIES DEVELOP THEIR OWN PROGRAMS AND FUNDING PRIORITIES. IN THE CDBG NON-ENTITLED COUNTIES IN HAWAII PROGRAM, THREE COUNTIES QUALIFY: HAWAII, KAUAI, AND MAUI. THE FY 2004 APPROPRIATIONS ACT REQUIRED THE GOVERNOR OF HAWAII TO DECIDE IF THE STATE WISHED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM BY JULY 31, 2004. THE STATE MADE THE DECISION NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN THE PROGRAM. AS A RESULT OF THIS DECISION HUD'S HONOLULU FIELD OFFICE ADMINISTERS THE NON-ENTITLED GRANTS IN HAWAII. FUNDS ARE ALLOCATED USING A FORMULA BASED ON POPULATION, POVERTY, AND HOUSING OVERCROWDING, WITH THE POVERTY FACTOR CARRYING A DOUBLE WEIGHT. FOR THE CDBG INSULAR AREAS PROGRAM, HUD ANNUALLY ALLOCATES CDBG GRANTS TO FOUR DESIGNATED AREAS: AMERICAN SAMOA; GUAM; NORTHERN MARIANA ISLANDS; AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS.

UNDER THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM, STATES PASS THROUGH CDBG GRANTS TO UNITS OF GENERAL LOCAL GOVERNMENT. ANNUALLY, EACH STATE DEVELOPS FUNDING PRIORITIES AND CRITERIA FOR SELECTING PROJECTS. SINCE STATES ARE IN THE BEST POSITION TO KNOW, AND TO RESPOND TO, THE NEEDS OF LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, CONGRESS AMENDED THE HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACT OF 1974 (HCD ACT) IN 1981 TO GIVE EACH STATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO ADMINISTER CDBG FUNDS FOR NON-ENTITLEMENT AREAS.

DEVELOPMENT OF A MACHINE LEARNING ALGORITHM TO DETECT OPIOID WITHDRAWAL AND CRAVINGS TO INCREASE TREATMENT RETENTION - ABSTRACT THE USE OF OPIOIDS IN THE UNITED STATES HAS CREATED AN OPIOID CRISIS THAT KILLED OVER 80,816 PEOPLE IN 2021. AN ESTIMATED 136 PEOPLE DIE IN THE USA EACH DAY DUE TO OVERDOSE INVOLVING AN OPIOID. DISCONTINUATION OF OPIOID USE OFTEN RESULTS IN SEVERE OPIOID WITHDRAWAL SYMPTOMS (OWS), CREATING A BARRIER TO OPIOID CESSATION AND OUD TREATMENT RETENTION. WITHOUT ADEQUATE TREATMENT DURING OPIOID DETOXIFICATION, MANY PATIENTS ARE UNABLE TO DISCONTINUE OPIOID USE AND STAY IN TREATMENT, PUTTING THEM AT HIGHER RISK FOR OPIOID-RELATED OVERDOSE. THERE IS A NEED TO EXPAND TREATMENT OPTIONS THAT CAN BE USED SAFELY AND EFFECTIVELY IN THE OUTPATIENT OPIOID DETOX SETTING TO INCREASE TREATMENT RETENTION AND REDUCE RATES OF OPIOID OVERDOSE. PHARMACOTHERAPIES FOR OWS INVOLVE FULL-AGONIST TREATMENT WITH METHADONE, PARTIAL-AGONIST WITH BUPRENORPHINE, AND ALPHA(2)-AGONIST WITH LOFEXIDINE. HOWEVER, IN 2019, ONLY 1.02M (14%) OF THE 7.6M AMERICANS WITH OUD NEEDING TREATMENT RECEIVED PHARMACOTHERAPY TREATMENT. THERE ARE CURRENTLY FDA-CLEARED MEDICAL DEVICES ON THE MARKET DESIGNED TO REDUCE OWS, INCLUDING NON-INVASIVE NEUROSTIMULATION. THERE ARE CURRENTLY NO WEARABLE CLOSED-LOOP DEVICES ON THE MARKET DESIGNED TO MONITOR AND TREAT OWS AND CRAVINGS. THERE IS A NEED TO EXPAND TREATMENT OPTIONS TO EFFECTIVE DEVICES THAT PROVIDE TAILORED, TARGETED THERAPY BY BOTH MONITORING AND TREATING PATIENTS WITH OWS TO INCREASE TREATMENT RETENTION AND PREVENT RELAPSE. WE PROPOSE THE COMBINATION OF PHYSIOLOGIC SENSING AND NEUROSTIMULATION TO DELIVER TAILORED, CLOSED-LOOP OPIOID WITHDRAWAL TREATMENT. SPARK BIOMEDICAL HAS DEVELOPED A WEARABLE TRANSCUTANEOUS AURICULAR NEUROSTIMULATION (TANTM) SYSTEM, SPARROW ASCENT. SPARROW ASCENT IS INTENDED TO TRANSCUTANEOUSLY STIMULATE BRANCHES OF THE VAGUS AND TRIGEMINAL NERVES ON AND/OR AROUND THE EAR. SPARROW ASCENT IS BASED ON THE SPARROW THERAPY SYSTEM, WHICH WAS FDA-CLEARED IN 2021 (K201873) AND INDICATED FOR USE AS A TRANSCUTANEOUS NERVE STIMULATOR THAT AIDS IN THE REDUCTION OR PREVENTION OF OWS. A RANDOMIZED-CONTROLLED TRIAL SHOWS SPARROW CAN REDUCE OWS BY 46% AFTER 60-MIN DURING ACUTE DETOX. SPARK PARTNERED WITH BATTELLE MEMORIAL INSTITUTE TO INTEGRATE A CLOSED- LOOP OPIOID WITHDRAWAL AND CRAVINGS DETECTION ALGORITHM WITH THE NEUROHUB PLATFORM. NEUROHUB COUPLES WEARABLE SENSORS TO MEASURE HEART RATE, HEART RATE VARIABILITY, CORTISOL LEVELS, ACCELEROMETRY, TEMPERATURE AND ELECTRODERMAL ACTIVITY. NEUROHUB USES A CLOUD-BASED APPLICATION PROGRAMMING INTERFACE (API) AND MACHINE LEARNING (ML) TO CREATE THE DECISION TREE FOR AUTOMATED DETECTION OF OWS AND CRAVINGS BASED ON SENSOR FEEDBACK TO SELECTIVELY TRIGGER TAN TREATMENT IN A CLOSED-LOOP SYSTEM. IN THIS PHASE I, WE PROPOSE TO DEVELOP AN OPIOID WITHDRAWAL DETECTION AND CRAVINGS ALGORITHM USING WEARABLE PHYSIOLOGIC SENSORS. THE LONG-TERM GOAL FOR THIS ALGORITHM IS TO ENABLE PATIENT MONITORING AND INFORM THE CLOSED-LOOP DELIVERY OF TAN THERAPY TO REDUCE OWS AND CRAVINGS TO INCREASE TREATMENT RETENTION.

THE OBJECTIVE OF THE PROJECT IS FOR THE RENO-SPARKS INDIAN COLONY TO PLAN, DEVELOP AND ESTABLISH AN ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION PROGRAM THROUGH OUTREA

STUDY OF TRANSCUTANEOUS AURICULAR NEUROSTIMULATION AS A TREATMENT FOR ALCOHOL USE DISORDER - PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT ALCOHOL USE DISORDER (AUD) IS A MAJOR HEALTH PROBLEM IN THE UNITED STATES, OFTEN ATTRIBUTED TO FACTORS IMPACTING THE MESOLIMBIC AND CORTICO-STRIATAL SYSTEMS IN THE BRAIN. CURRENTLY, THERE IS A PRESSING NEED FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF BOTH THERAPEUTIC INTERVENTIONS AND EFFECTIVE BIOMARKERS FOR ALCOHOL WITHDRAWAL SYNDROME (AWS) AND ALCOHOL- RELATED PSYCHIATRIC SYMPTOMS. ONE PROMISING NON-PHARMACOLOGICAL APPROACH IS TRANSCUTANEOUS AURICULAR NEUROSTIMULATION (TAN), A NON- INVASIVE NEUROSTIMULATION TECHNIQUE THAT STIMULATES NEUROTRANSMITTER SYSTEMS. TAN COMBINES VAGUS NERVE STIMULATION (VNS) AND TRIGEMINAL NERVE STIMULATION (TNS). OUR STUDY HAS SHOWN THAT TAN IS A SAFE AND EFFECTIVE NON-INVASIVE TREATMENT FOR REDUCING SUBSTANCE WITHDRAWAL SYMPTOMS, PARTICULARLY THOSE FROM OPIOIDS, SUGGESTING ITS POTENTIAL AS A THERAPEUTIC TOOL FOR IMPROVING AWS. THE AIM IS TO LOWER A PATIENT’S DESIRE FOR ALCOHOL USE AND LESSEN THE CHANCE OF RELAPSE. FURTHERMORE, ANOTHER PROMISING AVENUE IS THE INTEGRATION OF NEUROIMAGING WITH CLINICAL OUTCOMES, AIMING TO ESTABLISH AN FMRI-BASED OBJECTIVE BIOMARKER FOR AUD. INCORPORATING TAN INTO THIS FRAMEWORK ALLOWS US TO GO BEYOND MERE BIOMARKER DEVELOPMENT, OFFERING A UNIQUE AND QUANTIFIABLE THERAPEUTIC STRATEGY. THE PROPOSED RESEARCH ENDEAVORS TO COMPREHENSIVELY INVESTIGATE THE EFFICACY OF TAN AS A TREATMENT FOR AWS AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEUROIMAGING BIOMARKERS IN PATIENTS WITH AUD. THIS RESEARCH INITIATIVE AIMS TO PROVIDE A COMPREHENSIVE CLINICAL PACKAGE, OFFERING A VALUABLE THERAPEUTIC TOOL. ULTIMATELY, THIS WORK NOT ONLY ADVANCES THE APPLICATION OF TAN IN CLINICAL SETTINGS BUT ALSO CONTRIBUTES SIGNIFICANTLY TO THE BROADER FIELD OF TRANSLATIONAL MEDICAL RESEARCH.

RENO-SPARKS INDIAN COLONY TRIBAL RESPONSE PROGRAM - THE RENO-SPARKS INDIAN COLONY (RSIC) AIMS TO ADDRESS THE OPIOID CRISIS AND STIMULANT USE AND MISUSE DISORDERS, BY IMPLEMENTING A SYSTEMIC COLLABORATIVE CLINICAL SERVICES MODEL OF CARE TO ENHANCE PROGRAMMING FOR AT-RISK TRIBAL POPULATIONS THROUGH RENO-SPARKS TRIBAL HEALTH CENTER (RSTHC). THE RSTHC IS IDEALLY SITUATED TO PROVIDE FOCUSED AND CULTURALLY COMPETENT SERVICES TO THIS TARGET POPULATION. BY INCREASING ACCESS TO CULTURALLY APPROPRIATE AND EVIDENCE-BASED TREATMENT, INCLUDING MEDICATION-ASSISTED TREATMENT (MAT) USING FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION (FDA)-APPROVED MEDICATIONS FOR THE TREATMENT OF OPIOID USE DISORDER (OUD) THROUGH CONTRACTING MAT SERVICES WITHIN THE RENO/SPARKS AREA. IN ADDITION TO FOCUSING ON OUD AND/OR SUD. THE INTENT IS TO REDUCE UNMET TREATMENT NEED AND OPIOID AND/OR STIMULANT RELATED OVERDOSE DEATHS THROUGH THE PROVISION OF PREVENTION, TREATMENT, AND RECOVERY SUPPORT SERVICES FOR OUD AND/OR SUD. TO IMPROVE SERVICES TARGETING OPIOID USE AND STIMULANT USE DISORDERS BASED ON EVIDENCED-BASED MODALITIES AS ADAPTED FOR AMERICAN INDIAN/ALASKAN NATIVE (AI/AN) POPULATIONS USING COMPONENTS OF THE NATIONAL TRIBAL BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AGENDA (TBHA) AND ALASKA NATIVE CULTURAL WISDOM DECLARATION (CWD), WHICH ELEVATES THE IMPORTANCE OF TRIBAL IDENTITIES, CULTURE, SPIRITUAL BELIEFS, AND PRACTICES FOR IMPROVING WELL-BEING. BY ENHANCING THE CURRENT INFRASTRUCTURE OF RSTHC, THE TRIBE WILL BE ABLE TO MOBILIZE EXISTING RESOURCES AND MAXIMIZE PATIENT CARE AS IT RELATES TO THIS TARGET POPULATION. THE PROGRAM WILL UTILIZE THE CURRENT TOR PROJECT DIRECTOR/CLINICAL PROGRAM PLANNER, TO ASSIST WITH DATA COLLECTION AND SERVICE MANAGEMENT. FOCUS OF IMPROVEMENTS INCLUDES ENHANCED WRAP AROUND SERVICES WITHIN THE CLINIC UTILIZING SYSTEMIC CARE MODEL INVOLVING CULTURALLY HEIGHTENED PROCESSES TO IMPROVE WELL-BEING AND OVERALL HEALTH. - PURPOSE: THE PURPOSE OF THE PROJECT IS TO PROVIDE SUPPLEMENTAL PROGRAMMING AND EDUCATE CURRENT STAFF TO IMPROVE EXISTING CLINICAL CARE FOCUSED ON REDUCING THE IMPACT OF OPIOID AND/OR STIMULANT USE DISORDERS AND BY REDUCING PREMATURE DEATH ASSOCIATED WITH USE. - GOALS: THE GOAL OF THE PROJECT IS TO REDUCE OPIOID USE AND/OR STIMULANT USE DISORDER, THIS INCLUDE USE OF HIGH-RISK ADDICTIVE MEDICATION FOR THE TREATMENT OF CHRONIC PAIN MANAGEMENT AMONG AI/ANS IN NORTHERN NEVADA. THE SECONDARY GOAL IS TO IMPROVE THE DATA COLLECTION TO BE ABLE TO FORECAST TRENDS AND IDENTIFY GAPS IN SERVICES RELATED TO OPIOID AND/OR STIMULANT USE DISORDERS. IN ADDITION TO IMPROVING THE MANAGEMENT OF HIGH-RISK ADDICTIVE MEDICATION FOR THE TREATMENT OF CHRONIC PAIN. - OBJECTIVES 1. TO ENHANCE CLINICAL SERVICES BY PROVIDING INTEGRATED TREATMENT FOR PATIENTS WITH OPIOID USE AND/OR STIMULANT USE DISORDERS, AND MONITORING IMPROVEMENTS FOR MEDICATION MANAGEMENT FOR CHRONIC PAIN (TARGETING 30 PER YEAR), BY THE END OF THE FIRST YEAR OF FUNDING; 2. TO DECREASE THE NUMBER OF PATIENTS DIAGNOSED WITH SUDS, CHRONIC, AND/OR CO-OCCURRING MENTAL DISORDERS, BY 25% BY THE END OF THE PROJECT PERIOD. 3. TO INCREASE THE CAPACITY OF THE TRIBE TO PROJECT PROGRAM NEEDS BY IMPROVING DATA COLLECTION, TRACKING TREATMENT SUCCESS, IDENTIFYING GAPS IN SERVICE AND PLANNING FOR SUSTAINABILITY. 4. BY THE 12TH MONTH OF THE GRANT PERIOD, PROJECT DIRECTOR/CLINICAL PROGRAM PLANNER WILL PROVIDE EDUCATION/AWARENESS AND PREVENTION SERVICES RELATED TO THE NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF OPIOID AND/OR STIMULANT USE; KNOWLEDGE REGARDING THE NEGATIVE IMPACTS OF OPIOID AND/OR STIMULANT USE WILL HAVE INCREASED BY 30% AS EVIDENCED BY PRE- AND POST-TEST DATA 5. BY THE 12TH MONTH OF THE GRANT YEAR, MULTIPLE DEPARTMENTS WILL NETWORK AND PROVIDE SYSTEMIC CULTURALLY BASED PROGRAM THAT INCLUDES EDUCATION/AWARENESS/PREVENTION SERVICES TO REDUCE USE OF HIGH-RISK MEDICATIONS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO CO-MORBIDITIES, BY 35%.

IMPROVING AN EEG-BASED NEURODIAGNOSTIC SOFTWARE PLATFORM TO DETECT ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE IN MCI PATIENTS - PROJECT SUMMARY ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE (AD) IS A PROGRESSIVE, NEURODEGENERATIVE CONDITION AND THE MOST COMMON CAUSE OF DEMENTIA. IN THE UNITED STATES, AN ESTIMATED 6.2 MILLION PEOPLE OVER THE AGE OF 65 ARE LIVING WITH AD, 72% OF WHOM ARE OVER 75 YEARS OLD. GIVEN THE COUNTRY’S AGING POPULATION, THIS NUMBER IS EXPECTED TO MORE THAN TRIPLE BY 2050, COSTING THE UNITED STATES AN ANNUAL $600 BILLION IN ASSOCIATED HEALTHCARE COSTS. EARLY DIAGNOSIS IS CRUCIAL TO AD TREATMENT BECAUSE IT ALLOWS CLINICIANS MORE TIME TO FIND AND INITIATE TREATMENT PATHWAYS, WHICH DECREASES DISEASE PROGRESSION AND PRESERVES MENTAL CAPACITY. NEW RESEARCH SUGGESTS THAT BIOMARKERS CAN HELP DIAGNOSE AD YEARS BEFORE SYMPTOMS APPEAR. DESPITE RECENT TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCEMENTS, MANY TOOLS AND TECHNOLOGIES THAT MEASURE BIOMARKERS ARE INVASIVE, EXPENSIVE, AND NOT SENSITIVE OR SPECIFIC ENOUGH, PARTICULARLY WHEN DETECTING THE DISEASE AT EARLIER STAGES, LIMITING THEIR USABILITY. WHEN COMBINED WITH ADVANCED MACHINE LEARNING TECHNIQUES, ELECTROENCEPHALOGRAPHY (EEG) HAS BEEN SHOWN TO ADDRESS MANY OF THE EXISTING ISSUES RELATED TO AD BIOMARKERS. AT SPARK NEURO, WE AIM TO UNLOCK THE FULL POTENTIAL OF EEG THROUGH A NOVEL SOFTWARE PLATFORM. COMBINING EEG WITH THE CAPABILITIES OF MACHINE LEARNING, OUR MODEL BETTER ASSESSES COGNITIVE HEALTH AND NEURODEGENERATION, AIDING THE DIAGNOSIS OF AD. SPARK’S NEUROANALYTIC PLATFORM WILL BE A STANDARDIZED, OBJECTIVE, NON-INVASIVE, COST-EFFECTIVE DIAGNOSTIC TOOL CAPABLE OF HIGHLY SENSITIVE AND SPECIFIC DETECTION OF COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT ACROSS THE ENTIRE DISEASE CONTINUUM. OUR PLATFORM WOULD VASTLY EXPAND AD SCREENING INITIATIVES AND PROVIDE NEUROLOGICAL INSIGHTS TO AID IN THE DIAGNOSIS AND TRACKING OF DISEASE PROGRESSION. DURING THE PROPOSED PHASE I RESEARCH, WE WILL WORK IN COLLABORATION WITH MAYO CLINIC TO EXTEND OUR CURRENT ALGORITHM TO ASSESS AND DIFFERENTIATE PATIENTS IN THE EARLIER, MILD COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT STAGE OF THE DISEASE, AND PROVIDE HIGHLY USEFUL AND USABLE REPORTS TO CLINICIANS. FIRST, WE WILL OPTIMIZE THE ALGORITHM BY INCORPORATING EEG DATA COLLECTED FROM MAYO CLINIC PATIENTS. NEXT, WE WILL FOCUS ON IMPROVING THE USER EXPERIENCE OF BOTH EEG DATA ACQUISITION AND CLINICAL REPORTING. WE WILL ENHANCE END-USER SATISFACTION AND OPTIMIZE THE TECHNOLOGY TO FIT WITHIN CURRENT CLINICAL WORKFLOWS. PARTICIPATING MAYO CLINIC EEG TECHNICIANS WILL PROVIDE FEEDBACK. ONCE OPTIMIZED, SPARK’S APPROACH WILL CONSTITUTE THE FIRST IN-OFFICE EEG-BASED NEURODIAGNOSTIC TOOL SPECIFICALLY FOR DIAGNOSING AND TRACKING AD. OUR NON-INVASIVE SOLUTION HAS THE POTENTIAL TO ACCELERATE AD SCREENING PROGRAMS, DETECT PATHOLOGICAL AD AT EARLIER STAGES, AND PROVIDE INDIVIDUALIZED DISEASE PROGRESSION INSIGHTS.

THIS PROJECT WILL DEVELOP THE ORGANIZATIONAL AND REGULATORY CAPACITY NECESSARY FOR THE TUA, INCLUDING TRANSACTIONAL CODES FOR UTILITY DISTRIBUTION, AND EXPLORE ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE OPTIONS FOR THE NEW RENO GOVERNMENT COMPLEX.RSIC IS MOTIVATED TO IMPLEMENT THE BUSINESS AND REGULATORY FRAMEWORK PROPOSED IN THIS APPLICATION FOR MANY REASONS. THE HUNGRY VALLEY RSIC COMMUNITY IS AN ENERGY ISLAND WITH UNIQUE ENERGY NEEDS, AND THE RENO COMMUNITY IS EXPANDING ITS INFRASTRUCTURE AND WANTS TO DO SO IN AN ENERGY CONSCIOUS MANNER. ADDITIONALLY, IN APRIL 2019 THE NEVADA LEGISLATURE PASSED A BILL THAT REQUIRES 50 OF ELECTRICITY IN THE STATE TO BE GENERATED FROM RENEWABLE SOURCES BY 2030, AND 100 OF ITS POWER FROM CARBON FREE SOURCES BY 2050. THUS, THE TRIBE WANTS TO GAIN GOVERNANCE SURROUNDING ENERGY AND UTILITIES TO ADVOCATE FOR THE DIVERSE AND UNIQUE NEEDS OF THE TRIBE AND ITS MEMBERS IN BOTH THE RURAL HUNGRY VALLEY AND URBAN RENO COMMUNITIES.THIS PROJECT AIMS TO MAKE RSIC MORE ENERGY INDEPENDENT, WHILE IMPROVING THE COST AND RELIABILITY OF ENERGY IN THE COMMUNITY AS WELL AS EXPLORING RENEWABLE ENERGY OPTIONS. RSIC WANTS TO IMPROVE ENERGY CAPACITY FOR BOTH ITS RURAL HUNGRY VALLEY AND URBAN RENO COMMUNITIES SO IT CAN PROVIDE MORE RELIABLE UTILITY SERVICES AT MORE AFFORDABLE COSTS TO ITS TRIBAL MEMBERS, WHILE ALSO GAINING ENERGY INDEPENDENCE AND ASSERTING TRIBAL SOVEREIGNTY. TO MEET THIS GOAL, THIS PROJECT WILL DELIVER (1) A CLEAR PICTURE OF RSICS CURRENT ENERGY, LEGAL REGULATORY, ORGANIZATIONAL, AND FINANCIAL CAPACITY, INCLUDING MAPS OF TRIBAL UTILITIES (WHERE APPLICABLE) (2) A DRAFT TRANSACTIONAL CODE ORDINANCE FOR ADOPTION BY THE RSIC TRIBAL COUNCIL (3) A VISION FOR THE RSIC TRIBAL UTILITY AUTHORITY AND ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE FOR THE NEW RENO GOVERNMENT COMPLEX (4) IF DEEMED FEASIBLE, A NEWLY CHARTED TRIBAL ENTITY IN THE FORM OF A TRIBAL UTILITY AUTHORITY WITH THE POWERS TO ENGAGE WITH SURROUNDING UTILITIES, FEDERAL AND STATE AGENCIES, AND THE RSIC COMMUNITY (5) A ROADMAP AND BUSINESS PLAN FOR ADDRESSING CAPACITY GAPS, INCLUDING POLICIES, REGULATIONS, AND CODES AND (6) A FINAL REPORT AND PRESENTATION (IN POWERPOINT FORMAT) SUMMARIZING THE FINDINGS OF THE FEASIBILITY STUDY CONDUCTED UNDER THIS PROPOSED PROJECT AS WELL AS THE ROADMAP AND BUSINESS PLAN.
