Cardiovascular disease risk reduction interventions for Indigenous women: An umbrella review
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention strategies are predominantly informed by studies conducted in men from the general population, which can disadvantage women—particularly Indigenous women—whose CVD needs differ in terms of symptom presentation, healthcare access, receipt of guideline-recommended care and sociocultural roles. This review aims to summarize the effectiveness of CVD prevention interventions in Indigenous women in the USA, Canad…
Yorga Moorditj Koort: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women’s perspectives about heart health on Noongar Boodjar

Health of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and their grandparents: A Western Australian retrospective cohort study
Aboriginal children with healthy grandparents had better health and lower health service use. If this relationship is causal, healthy ageing and strong family connections must be supported to improve child health. Even if the relationship is not causal, healthy ageing, a family-centred approach to health care, and social support may help families experiencing poor health in multiple generations simultaneously
The Physical and Mental Health of Mothers of Aboriginal Children in Out‐of‐Home Care in Western Australia
There is a need to better understand the physical and mental health of mothers of Aboriginal children who enter out‐of‐home care to prevent removals. Evidence suggests that families involved in child protection systems often experience significant needs that may culminate in child removals. For Aboriginal families, these are compounded by the inter‐generational trauma from colonisation which has resulted in health issues, poverty and family viole…
A Qualitative Study of Aboriginal Peoples' Health Care Experiences With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Aboriginal Australians experience a high prevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), with high rates of potentially preventable hospitalisations. However, little is known about Aboriginal peoples' experiences of living with COPD and how they navigate health care systems. This study used thematic analysis and Aboriginal methodology to explore Aboriginal peoples' lived experiences of COPD, their health care journey from receiving a …
Indigenous Spirituality, Health, and Well-Being in the Young: Yarns With the Victorian Aboriginal Community
The extant literature has scant detail about everyday spiritual practices that aid Indigenous young people. This paper systematically explores Indigenous Spirituality, health, and well-being through Elder-governed yarns conducted via Zoom with 44 Aboriginal Elders, Healers, and Senior and Junior people involved in health and well-being of the Victorian Aboriginal community. These yarns were analyzed through an innovative, constructivist, multi-pe…
Intersectoral collaboration for supporting the health and wellbeing of Aboriginal families and children in out-of-home care: Perspectives from Western Australian Aboriginal Community Controlled Health…
Introduction: Western Australia has one of the highest rates of Aboriginal children entering out-of-home care in Australia. Kinship care is the preferred culturally safe out-of-home care option for Aboriginal children, yet all jurisdictions, including Western Australia, are far from meeting best-practice national standards. Intersectoral collaboration is a key primary healthcare principle and internationally recognized for improving health system…
Culture, Health and Wellbeing: Yarning with the Victorian Indigenous community
Indigenous young people around the world suffer poorer mental health outcomes than their non-Indigenous counterparts. Currently, how culture matters for health, what cultural practices are used in community to support health and wellbeing, and how culture is passed on in Aboriginal contemporary life in south east Australia – a region most affected by settler-colonisation – is not well understood. This paper presents findings from yarns with a rep…

Questioning the ethics of evidence-based practice for Indigenous health and social settings in Australia
Australian government planning promotes evidence-based action as the overarching goal to achieving health equality for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander populations. However, an inequitable distribution of power and resources in the conduct of evidence-based practice produces a policy environment counterintuitive to this goal. This context of contemporary evidence-based practice gives legitimacy to ‘expert practitioners’ located in Australian…

The future growth and spatial shift of Australia's Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population, 2016–2051
The Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population more than doubled in size between 1996 and 2016. Growth was highest in urban areas and lower in rural and remote areas. An important contributor to growth was identification change, whereby individuals report their Aboriginal status differently over time. Official population projections in Australia currently do not incorporate this phenomenon, leading to underestimation of future po…

P2-252 Short- and long-term mortality of aboriginal people after hospital admission for ischaemic heart disease: A data linkage study in New South Wales, Australia
Introduction The health of Australian Aboriginal people is worse than that of non-Aboriginal people across every conceivable indicator. Ischaemic heart disease (IHD) is a leading cause of premature death. We aimed to determine whether short- and long-term mortality after hospitalisation for IHD was higher for Aboriginal than non-Aboriginal patients, in order to guide interventions to reduce the mortality gap. Method New South Wales hospital data …
Mortality after admission for acute myocardial infarction in Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people in New South Wales, Australia: A multilevel data linkage study
