![]() Since its inception, Hello Alfred has raised a total of $63.5 million in funding over 5 rounds. The data that is gathered is used for the sole purpose of providing better recommendations for each resident and is analyzed on an aggregate level to discern macro trends that will help shape the Alfred service offering. Communications happen via the Alfred app and face to face, and the experience each user has is unique to them. Sapone explained to me that they consider being invited into someone’s home to be a great privilege, and always seek to put the resident first and build a relationship that is not transactional. Hello Alfred has sought, since the very beginning, to be one of the most trusted companies in the world. Our aspiration is to provide other services such as hardware and to build tech into the buildings we operate in.” This integrates with the property management software the building owners use, and in Sapone’s own words is “a power cord to leapfrog the traditional ERPs–on the back end we are taking everything that relates to residents and providing a resident user experience. They have built an extensive suite of proprietary software which manages the resident interaction from the day they sign their lease to the moment they decide to renew or move out. Hello Alfred boasts 300 staff in 20 locations, and claim to be adding a building and a person to the business each day. Alfred’s goal is to solve all problems that busy city dwellers face.īehind this deceptively simple proposition lie some pretty complex operations. Pets are walked, gifts are arranged for, and cleaning services are provided according to the residents’ needs. They can expect their groceries to be put away in the fridge, the dry cleaning neatly stored in the closet. Each resident (Hello Alfred used to provide their services to individual apartments, but have since chosen to focus on multifamily buildings) can count on a dedicated home manager that acts as a PA for them. Sapone explained to me that they are building a community to take on day to day life in every Alfred building. With 80% of Americans expected to live in cities by 2030 and many of these in rental accommodation, they have positioned themselves in a fast-growing market, and claim to be the only company to have cracked the formula for that trust. ![]() New York-based PropTech startup Hello Alfred was set up in 2014 by co-founders Jessica Beck and Marcela Sapone to address this need and change the way people live in cities.

One major advantage of clear aligners is that you can eat and drink whatever you want without fear of damaging your braces or getting food stuck in them. Whether you’re giving a presentation at work or out on a first date, no one has to know that you’re wearing clear aligners! So if being self-conscious about traditional metal braces has been holding you back from getting the smile you’ve always wanted, consider switching over to clear aligner therapy instead. They’re designed to blend in seamlessly with your natural tooth color, making them nearly impossible to spot unless someone is looking very closely. The aligners themselves are made from a transparent plastic material that’s custom-molded to fit your teeth perfectly. This makes them an excellent option for adults who don’t want to draw attention to their orthodontic treatment in professional or social situations. Luckily, clear aligners offer a solution to this common problem!Ĭlear aligners are practically invisible, meaning you can straighten your teeth without anyone even noticing. ![]() One of the biggest concerns people have when considering orthodontic treatment is how noticeable their braces will be.

The problem is, many of them misunderstood what the correct context for small talk is and when someone who was mildly irritated called in with an issue the person in India would interject with lots of "The weather has been fine" and "Are you looking forward to the World Cup next year?", which it turns out makes people even more annoyed than just being said: Apparently the company that offshored the call center (I think it was a bank) wanted their Indian employees to understand culture from other countries, so they put them all through cultural training which included how to do small talk.

![]() Avoid using a mix of cement and gravel as it will crack with time and cause leakages. Polyurethane caulk is best for fixing the gap between your patio and house. What are the suitable materials for filling up concrete joints?Įpoxy foam backing is one of the best materials you can use when you want to fill holes or gaps in concrete expansion joints. Some signs that you may be experiencing if the house has a potential problem include cracked bricks, stuck windows, noises when the house is settling, and drywall cracks. If you have a poor foundation, ensure it’s reworked to ensure your house doesn’t get ruined. Ensure all the cracks in the walls or window frames and walls are properly re-sealed. Your best approach is to re-seal your foundation. If the ground on which your house sits can easily allow it to sink, you may have serious foundation issues. Caulk the crack carefully by placing the caulk gun down along the crack and smoothing the caulking over the area. Cracks that are only 14 inches wide can be sealed completely without using a backer rod. Caulk the small cracks in the walls and floor that are narrow. Step Six: Level the sealant evenly in the gap.Buy the right caulking material, and you’re good to get started. It’s an easy DIY project that you can handle without too much difficulty. How Do You Fill a Large Gap in a Concrete Patio?Ĭaulking is the most effective way of sealing the gap between your patio and house. You need to accurately mark the depth and width of the joint that will be added before you cut it to get it right. This method of creating expansion joints requires you to cut through the concrete slab using a concrete saw. Thirdly, you can choose to add expansion joints on top of a concrete slab that was already poured and cured using a concrete saw. That is why the second option is suitable for narrow surfaces such as sidewalks. The expansion and contraction of your slab will still happen due to the space above your slab. The disadvantage of this option is that it does not allow you to install a concrete expansion joint fully on the entire thickness of the concrete slab. When you pour your slab, create a slight space between the slab sections by using a joint trowel. A second method is to use a joint trowel to extend the width of your slab to allow it to expand. Multivariable regression analyses were then performed to examine the independent association between loading dose and composite failure as well as loading dose and nephrotoxicity. ![]() Categorical variables were compared using the χ 2 or Fisher’s exact test while continuous variables were compared using the Student’s t test or Mann–Whitney U test. In the primary analysis, a series of bivariate analyses were performed to compare outcomes between exposure groups, determine factors associated with the primary outcome of composite failure, and determine factors associated with nephrotoxicity. All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS v.24.0 (Armonk, NY, USA). For all analyses, a P value ≤ 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Concomitant nephrotoxins assessed included aminoglycosides, colistin, acyclovir, intravenous (IV) contrast dye, amphotericin, tacrolimus, loop diuretics, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin II receptor blockers.Ī sample size of 272 patients, 136 matched pairs, was required to detect a 15% difference in the primary endpoint using an alpha of 0.05 and power of 80%. Vancomycin trough concentration assessment included only initial trough concentrations drawn at steady-state of the maintenance regimen (prior to the 4th or 5th dose). Baseline SCr was the creatinine value immediately preceding the first dose of vancomycin. ![]() Nephrotoxicity was defined as an increase in serum creatinine (SCr) of greater than 0.5 mg/dL or at least a 50% increase from baseline on two consecutive measurements as per the vancomycin dosing and monitoring guidelines, and was assessed starting from the first dose of vancomycin to 72 h after the final dose. Secondary outcomes included duration of bacteremia, length of stay post-bacteremia onset, and nephrotoxicity. Patients not meeting criteria for composite failure were considered to be a treatment success. The primary outcome of this study was composite treatment failure defined as the presence of at least one of the following: 30-day mortality (from index culture), bacteremia duration ≥ 7 days after vancomycin initiation, persistent signs and symptoms of infection ≥ 7 days after vancomycin initiation, or switch to an alternative anti-MRSA antimicrobial agent due to treatment failure as determined by treating physician documentation. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of administering a one-time, weight-based vancomycin loading dose on clinical outcomes in patients with MRSA bacteremia. ĭue to the relative paucity of evidence demonstrating advantages to vancomycin loading doses, combined with the concern for increasing the risk for toxic events, continued evaluation of this practice is necessary. However, this is likely due to resultant supratherapeutic vancomycin exposures in these patients, and there are currently few data to demonstrate an association between vancomycin loading doses and nephrotoxicity. Conversely, given previous findings of higher total daily doses being correlated with higher incidence of nephrotoxicity, hypothetical concerns of increased vancomycin-associated nephrotoxicity persist with the weight-based loading dose approach, especially in obese patients. Although published data demonstrate that achievement of PD targets during the first 48 h of infection improves outcomes, clinical data showing a direct benefit of vancomycin loading doses are lacking. ![]() ![]() By increasing the likelihood of pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) target attainment early in therapy, this would theoretically improve outcomes in those patients at highest risk of mortality. To facilitate rapid attainment of goal concentrations, the guidelines recommend a one-time loading dose of 25–30 mg/kg based off total body weight (TBW) for seriously ill patients. The vancomycin guidelines recommend targeting trough concentrations of 15–20 mg/L for patients with Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia, endocarditis, osteomyelitis, meningitis, or hospital-acquired pneumonia and dosing regimens are designed to achieve these target serum exposures at steady-state.ĭepending on a patient’s renal function, it may take anywhere from 24 to 72 h, or longer, to reach steady-state. Various guidelines have suggested different vancomycin dosing and monitoring strategies and it was not until 2009 that the first consensus guideline for the therapeutic monitoring of vancomycin was published. ![]() Split by every "n" page: if you set the number 3, it will mean splitting PDF every 3 pages.Split after the following page number: type the page numbers you want to split and add a comma between them, such as 2,6,7,11.Split after option: choose Every Page, Even Pages (2,4,6, etc.), and Odd pages (1,3,5,etc.).In the Settings tab, you can decide the appearance, behavior, workspace, output preferences as you like.
