近年来的情况表明,复杂的紧急情况和自然灾害对健康造成了破坏性后果,从而突出表明,必须采取全面和协作的办法来应对人道主义反应和减少风险。与此同时,非传染性疾病现在被认为是对人口健康和发展的一个真实的和日益严重的威胁;这种威胁在紧急情况下和紧急情况期间被放大。然而,非传染性疾病在灾害和紧急反应的急性阶段仍然很少得到人道主义组织的关注。该文件呼吁所有部门认识到并应对非传染性疾病在紧急情况和灾害情况下带来的具体健康挑战。本出版物旨在强调需要:加强对紧急情况期间和之后非传染性疾病导致的发病率和死亡率模式的研究;通过加强对紧急情况期间和之后非传染性疾病问题和挑战的宣传提高认识;将非传染性疾病纳入现有的紧急情况相关政策、标准和资源;制定关于紧急情况下非传染性疾病临床管理的技术准则;在紧急情况期间和之后加强提供保健服务的一体化和协调;将非传染性疾病纳入对紧急工作人员和应急协调员的实际和学术培训。
Recent years have demonstrated the devastating health consequences of complex emergencies and natural disasters and thereby highlighted the importance of comprehensive and collaborative approaches to humanitarian responses and risk reduction. Simultaneously, noncommunicable diseases are now recognised as a real and growing threat to population health and development; a threat that is magnified by and during emergencies. Noncommunicable diseases, however, continue to receive little attention from humanitarian organisations in the acute phase of disaster and emergency response. This paper calls on all sectors to recognise and address the specific health challenges posed by noncommunicable diseases in emergencies and disaster situations. This publication aims to highlight the need for: Increased research on morbidity and mortality patterns due to noncommunicable diseases during and following emergencies; Raised awareness through greater advocacy for the issue and challenges of noncommunicable diseases during and following emergencies; Incorporation of noncommunicable diseases into existing emergency-related policies, standards, and resources; Development of technical guidelines on the clinical management of noncommunicable diseases in emergencies; Greater integration and coordination in health service provision during and following emergencies; Integrating noncommunicable diseases into practical and academic training of emergency workers and emergency-response coordinators.
