Integrating noncommunicable disease care in a public primary health care facility in North Lebanon
Integrated care for non-communicable diseases (NCDs) may enhance care delivery, clinical impact, user-satisfaction, and access. However, evidence on integrated NCD care in humanitarian settings remains scarce. This qualitative study accompanied the first year of implementation (March 2023 to March 2024) of an integrated care programme at an International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC)-supported, Ministry of Public Health-affiliated primary hea…
Implementation strategies to improve outcomes in patients with established cardiovascular disease in sub-Saharan Africa
Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is experiencing an epidemic of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Despite numerous evidence-based therapies and management guidelines for patients with acute or established CVD, significant gaps persist in their implementation in SSA. This systematic review aims to describe, synthesise and identify key gaps in the implementation strategies of evidence-based approaches that can improve clinical outcomes for patients with acute …
Evaluation of a peer support group programme for vulnerable host population and refugees living with diabetes and/or hypertension in Lebanon
Our study showed mixed results. In terms of reach, over 50% of those approached consented to participate. Regarding the impact on PROMs, we observed improvements in most outcomes; however we found some statistical evidence only for some. We did not find strong statistical evidence of improvement in clinical outcomes compared to the control group. Differences between the two waves may be due to differences in the populations, the way the intervent…
Implementing (and evaluating) peer support with people living with noncommunicable diseases in humanitarian settings
In line with the peer reviewers comments, the authors have added highlights in stead of an abstract. It was felt that it was better able to capture the findings and is more in line with the paper's target audience
Implementing and evaluating integrated care models for non-communicable diseases in fragile and humanitarian settings
In this commentary, we advocate for the wider implementation of integrated care models for NCDs within humanitarian preparedness, response, and resilience efforts. Since experience and evidence on integrated NCD care in humanitarian settings is limited, we discuss potential benefits, key lessons learned from other settings, and lessons from the integration of other conditions that may be useful for stakeholders considering an integrated model of …
