Bridging the Gaps through Integrated Care
Integrated care has emerged as a potential solution in advancing post-stroke care. Apart from ensuring the provision of comprehensive care to stroke patients, integrated care also fosters collaboration and coordination among diverse healthcare providers. As such, it is crucial to identify the best evidence of integrated care initiatives in real-world settings to support future care optimization. However, unlike other diseases or population groups…
Social and health service-related factors associated with undiagnosed diabetes mellitus– a population-based survey in a highly urbanized Chinese setting
Compared to individuals without diabetes or IDM cases, economically active males, males without regular check-ups and males with lower household income had a higher risk of UDM. Targeted active DM screening can reduce UDM. However, further research on the benefits of different types of physical activity is needed
Integrated Care for Multimorbidity Population in Asian Countries
Background: The complex needs of patients with multiple chronic diseases call for integrated care (IC). This scoping review examines several published Asian IC programmes and their relevant components and elements in managing multimorbidity patients. Method: A scoping review was conducted by searching electronic databases encompassing Medline, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science. Three key concepts - 1) integrated care, 2) multimorbidity, and 3) A…
Effectiveness of Peri-Discharge Complex Interventions for Reducing 30-Day Readmissions among COPD Patients
Peri-discharge complex interventions may not differ from usual care in reducing 30-day all-cause readmissions among COPD patients but some are more effective for lowering 30-day COPD-related readmission. Thus, complex intervention comprising core components of patient education, self-management, patient-centred discharge instructions, and telephone follow up may be considered for implementation, but further evaluation is warranted
Mindfulness Awareness Is Associated With a Lower Risk of Anxiety and Depressive Symptoms in Older Adults With Neurocognitive Disorders
Background: Apart from depressive disorders, there are great interests in adopting mindfulness based interventions (MBIs) for other mental health conditions. Depression and anxiety are common in people with neurocognitive disorders (NCD). The potential of MBIs as an adjuvant treatment in this cognitively at-risk group should be further explored. Objectives: The current study explored the association between depression and anxiety symptoms with di…
Measuring health-related social deprivation in small areas
Our newly developed SDI is a valid and routinely available measurement of social deprivation in small areas and is useful in resource allocation and policy-making for public health purpose in communities. There is a potential large improvement in cancer mortality by offering relevant policies and interventions to reduce health-related deprivation. Further studies can be done to design strategies to reduce the expanding health inequalities between…
Impact of Covid-19 on loneliness, mental health, and health service utilisation
BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the psychological health and health service utilisation of older adults with multimorbidity, who are particularly vulnerable. AIM: To describe changes in loneliness, mental health problems, and attendance to scheduled medical care before and after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. DESIGN AND SETTING: Telephone survey on a pre-existing cohort of older adults with multimorbidity in primary care. METH…
Combined nicotine patch with gum versus nicotine patch alone in smoking cessation in Hong Kong primary care clinics
NCT03836560 from ClinicalTrial.gov , 9 Feb 2019
Impacts of alcohol duty reductions on cardiovascular mortality among elderly Chinese
BACKGROUND: In March 2007, the Hong Kong Government halved its heavy excise taxes on beer and wine, and 1 year later, it eliminated all duties on these beverages. This study examines the impact of such duty reductions on cardiovascular disease (CVD)-related mortality among the elderly in Hong Kong. METHODS: Box-Jenkins autoregressive integrated moving average intervention time series analyses were applied to monthly morality data from 2001 to 201…
