This description provides risk notifications for a geographic region to inform patients and effect behavior changes to prevent rescue events and exacerbations from occurring. A risk analysis for a geographic region is based on data gathered from a population of patients who may experience respiratory events within the geographic region. Rescue medication events, environmental conditions relevant to the rescue medication events, and other contextually relevant information are detected by sensors associated with a population of patients' medicament device/s and are collected from other sources, respectively, to provide a basis to determine a risk score. This data is analyzed to determine the severity of the risk of a respiratory event occurring within a geographical region and accordingly sending a notification to patients within that geographical region.

Devices and methods for tissue and graft procedures are provided that are designed to fail under a certain amount of force, providing sensory feedback that a particular activity may be providing too much stress on a surgical implant. For example, a surgical implant can include a sacrificial element in the form of a filament designed to break when a certain threshold value of force is met or exceeded, while a second filament that has the ability to withstand higher values of force, is able to maintain the repair after the first filament fails. In other embodiments, the sacrificial element includes a filament engagement mechanism associated with a suture anchor configured to fail at a threshold value of force, and a second filament engagement mechanism of the anchor can maintain the repair after the first one fails. Many implants configurations are provided, as are various surgical methods incorporating sacrificial elements.
