Preventive Healthcare Services

1.8K
Preventive healthcare services keep people healthy via frequent check-ups, screening, and counseling. They primarily aid in disease prevention rather than treating an acute or chronic illness. Preventive treatment also keeps individuals productive and energetic, allowing them to work well into their retirement years. Examples of preventive care services include:

Levels of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention01:26

Levels of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention

14.1K
Health promotion allows a person to control the determinants of health, resulting in an improved health status. It enhances the quality of life and reduces premature deaths. Health promotion and illness prevention programs help people make beneficial choices to reduce the risk of disease and disabilities. There are three health promotion and illness prevention levels: primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention.
In primary prevention, actions taken before disease onset prevent the disease from...

Healthcare Associated Infections II: Preventive Measures

3.6K
Essential infection prevention measures are based on the knowledge of the infection chain, the modes of transmission in healthcare settings, and the use of the best practices in all healthcare settings. Compulsory public reporting of healthcare-associated infection rates is needed to allow individuals and the community to make informed choices regarding selecting a healthcare facility.
The best practices for preventing healthcare-associated infections include hand hygiene, patient risk...

Effective preventive measures for coronary artery disease (CAD) focus on controlling modifiable risk factors, including cholesterol abnormalities and lifestyle changes.Cholesterol ManagementFirst, the Mediterranean diet and the American Heart Association advocate for maintaining low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels below 100 mg/dL, with a more stringent recommendation of below 70 mg/dL for individuals at high risk. LDL cholesterol, often termed "bad cholesterol," can lead to the...

Models of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention II

2.0K
The person's health status fluctuates continually, varying from being in good health to becoming ill and returning to being healthy. To understand the concept of illness prevention, there are two models. First, the health-illness continuum model is a graphic representation of an individual's wellness. It states that a person is considered healthy in the absence of physical disease and the presence of good emotional health.
The agent-host-environment model states that disease results...

Models of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention I

2.7K
A model is a theoretical way to understand a concept or an idea. Models can overcome barriers to health regardless of diverse economic and cultural backgrounds. In addition, models make the task easier by providing different ways to approach complex issues. There are two major health promotion models: the health belief model and the health promotion model.
The health belief model (HBM) attempts to predict health-related behavior in specific belief patterns. According to the HBM, a person's...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Cardiology
  • Preventive Medicine

Background:

  • Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a major cause of mortality and disability globally, with high prevalence in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE).
  • Significant disparities in CVD risk exist across countries, necessitating targeted prevention programs.
  • Modifiable risk factors are key targets for effective CVD prevention strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Introduce the European Program for Prevention (EPP) by the International Lipid Expert Panel (ILEP).
  • Enhance awareness of validated preventive healthcare solutions in CEE countries.
  • Evaluate adaptability of successful programs and showcase regional innovation potential.

Main Methods:

  • Aligns with EU Cardiovascular Health Plan, World Heart Federation (WHF), and World Health Organization (WHO) initiatives.
  • Promotes best practices, early detection, integrated prevention, training, and policy development.
  • Advocates for a shift towards pre-disease prevention and proposes an optimal CVD prevention system.

Main Results:

  • The EPP supports initiatives promoting best practices and early CVD detection.
  • It advocates for integrated prevention frameworks and policy development.
  • The program proposes mandatory health education, familial hypercholesterolemia screening, universal Lp(a) screening, and comprehensive check-ups.

Conclusions:

  • The EPP aims to reduce the burden of CVD and improve cardiovascular health outcomes in Europe and beyond.
  • Leveraging existing programs and fostering collaboration are key to the EPP's success.
  • Shifting healthcare priorities to pre-disease prevention is crucial for reducing reliance on costly treatments.
