DESCRIPTION:Beginning in 2016\, the nation’s attention focused on the unusu
 al health incidents reported byU.S. and other partner government personnel
  and their family members in Havana\,Cuba. Affected individuals of what th
 e U.S. government today calls Anomalous HealthIncidents (AHI)\, also somet
 imes referred to as “Havana syndrome\,” report that these incidentsoften i
 nvolve a combination of sudden head pressure\, dizziness\, slowed thinking
 \, ear pain\, anddisturbing sensory events. AHI-affected individuals may a
 lso experience chronic brain traumaand disability\, among other long-term 
 health concerns. In February 2022\, the Secretary of Wardirected the estab
 lishment of the AHI Cross-Functional Team (AHI CFT)\, which is required by
 section 910 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2022
 . The CFT’s missionis to lead the Department’s efforts related to identify
 ing AHI causation\, attribution\, mitigation\,identification\, and treatme
 nt\, and any other AHI-related issues. Based on ongoing Departmentof War (
 DoW) efforts led by the CFT\, the scientific community is developing new u
 nderstandingof AHI and the associated risk to the Joint Force and others. 
 This presentation will focus on themedical facets of identification\, comp
 rehensive assessment including focused history\,appropriate physical exami
 nation and diagnostic evaluation\, as well as treatmentrecommendations rel
 ated to AHI. We will outline how doctrine and training must be adapted toi
 ncorporate our understanding of this trauma in the appropriate notificatio
 n to the chain ofcommand and our flyaway teams for response to events. We 
 will also highlight the need forstandardized scope of practice and assessm
 ent. In addition\, the presentation will focus oneducation of providers fr
 om the patient perspective with three cases presented directly by thepatie
 nt or a surrogate actor if the patient is unable to speak due to their inj
 uries. These caseswill quickly capture the audience’s attention with the p
 oint of injury experience. The patientswill walk the audience through thei
 r daily lives as they build understanding of the associatedtrauma to ensur
 e awareness of the immediate effects and the chronicity of the symptomolog

TRANSP:OPAQUE
X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Beginning in 2016\, the nation’s attention 
 focused on the unusual health incidents reported byU.S. and other partner 
 government personnel and their family members in Havana\,Cuba. Affected in
 dividuals of what the U.S. government today calls Anomalous HealthIncident
 s (AHI)\, also sometimes referred to as “Havana syndrome\,” report that th
 ese incidentsoften involve a combination of sudden head pressure\, dizzine
 ss\, slowed thinking\, ear pain\, anddisturbing sensory events. AHI-affect
 ed individuals may also experience chronic brain traumaand disability\, am
 ong other long-term health concerns. In February 2022\, the Secretary of W
 ardirected the establishment of the AHI Cross-Functional Team (AHI CFT)\, 
 which is required bysection 910 of the National Defense Authorization Act 
 for Fiscal Year 2022. The CFT’s missionis to lead the Department’s efforts
  related to identifying AHI causation\, attribution\, mitigation\,identifi
 cation\, and treatment\, and any other AHI-related issues. Based on ongoin
 g Departmentof War (DoW) efforts led by the CFT\, the scientific community
  is developing new understandingof AHI and the associated risk to the Join
 t Force and others. This presentation will focus on themedical facets of i
 dentification\, comprehensive assessment including focused history\,approp
 riate physical examination and diagnostic evaluation\, as well as treatmen
 trecommendations related to AHI. We will outline how doctrine and training
  must be adapted toincorporate our understanding of this trauma in the app
 ropriate notification to the chain ofcommand and our flyaway teams for res
 ponse to events. We will also highlight the need forstandardized scope of 
 practice and assessment. In addition\, the presentation will focus oneduca
 tion of providers from the patient perspective with three cases presented 
 directly by thepatient or a surrogate actor if the patient is unable to sp
 eak due to their injuries. These caseswill quickly capture the audience’s 
 attention with the point of injury experience. The patientswill walk the a
 udience through their daily lives as they build understanding of the assoc
