WHO list of priority medical devices for management of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes by Anonim Pdf

The final goal of this publication is to guide on the selection of medical devices. This increases access to medical devices required to prevent, diagnose and treat cardiovascular diseases (including stroke) and diabetes, especially in low and middle resource settings. This publication is intended for Ministries of Health, public health planners, health technology managers, disease managers, researchers, policy-makers, funding and procurement agencies, and support and advocacy groups for patients suffering from cardiac diseases, stroke and diabetes. It serves to inform policy-makers and technical decision-makers on the selection of medical devices required for the package of benefits and interventions for a target population in the context of universal health coverage.

Noncommunicable Diseases by Nick Banatvala,Pascal Bovet Pdf

Noncommunicable Diseases: A Compendium introduces readers to noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) – what they are, their burden, their determinants and how they can be prevented and controlled. Focusing on cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer and chronic respiratory disease and their five shared main risk factors (tobacco use, harmful use of alcohol, unhealthy diet, physical inactivity and air pollution) as defined by the United Nations, this book provides a synopsis of one of the world’s biggest challenges of the 21st century. NCDs prematurely claim the lives of millions of people across the world every year, with untold suffering to hundreds of millions more, trapping many people in poverty and curtailing economic growth and sustainable development. While resources between and within countries largely differ, the key principles of surveillance, prevention and management apply to all countries, as does the need to focus resources on the most cost-effective and affordable interventions and the need for strong political will, sufficient resources, and sustained and broad partnerships. This compendium consists of 59 short and accessible chapters in six sections: (i) describing and measuring the burden and impact of NCDs; (ii) the burden, epidemiology and priority interventions for individual NCDs; (iii) social determinants and risk factors for NCDs and priority interventions; (iv) global policy; (v) cross-cutting issues; and (vi) stakeholder action. Drawing on the expertise of a large and diverse team of internationally renowned policy and academic experts, the book describes the key epidemiologic features of NCDs and evidence-based interventions in a concise manner that will be useful for policymakers across all parts of society, as well as for public health and clinical practitioners.

Report on the technical expert meeting on selection and prioritization of noncommunicable disease primary care facility-based indicators, 9 February, 1-4 March 2022 by World Health Organization Pdf

On 9 February and 1–4 March 2022, the World Health Organization convened experts to review proposed indicators and prioritize the most technically sound, feasible facility-based indicators for strengthening noncommunicable disease patient and programme monitoring systems at national and subnational levels for evidence-informed management of asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, diabetes, hypertension and cancers such as breast cancer, cervical cancer, childhood cancers and general cancers in primary care delivery settings. This technical report captures the meeting proceedings, conclusions, and recommendations and proposes the following actions to improve validity and feasibility indicators: 1. development of clearer, operationalized definitions of numerators and denominators of indicators for consistent measurement, 2. contextualization of indicators according to varying modalities in service delivery and infrastructure in countries, 3. engagement of stakeholders in setting the target for each indicator, 4. establishment of effective coordination mechanisms among health providers at different levels of care, and 5. strengthening of routine health information systems for individual tracking and programme management using appropriate technologies.

OECD Health Policy Studies Securing Medical Supply Chains in a Post-Pandemic World by OECD Pdf

This report offers insights into the risks and vulnerabilities of the supply chains of medicines and medical devices. Policy options to anticipate and mitigate risks of shortages of medicines and medical devices, both routinely and in the context of severe crises, are analysed. Most importantly, the report shows that strengthening the long-term resilience of medical supply chains requires collaborative approaches that balance measures best undertaken by the private sector with those more appropriately managed by governments or supranationally.

Global Report on Diabetes by Gojka Roglic Pdf

"On the occasion of World Health Day 2016, WHO issues a call for action on diabetes, drawing attention to the need to step up prevention and treatment of the disease. The first WHO Global report on diabetes demonstrates that the number of adults living with diabetes has almost quadrupled since 1980 to 422 million adults. This dramatic rise is largely due to the rise in type 2 diabetes and factors driving it include overweight and obesity. In 2012 alone diabetes caused 1.5 million deaths. Its complications can lead to heart attack, stroke, blindness, kidney failure and lower limb amputation. The new report calls upon governments to ensure that people are able to make healthy choices and that health systems are able to diagnose, treat and care for people with diabetes. It encourages us all as individuals to eat healthily, be physically active, and avoid excessive weight gain."--Publisher's description.
