到2050年，全球预计将有1.39亿痴呆症患者，其中约68%将来自低收入和中等收入国家。1.许多此类国家的卫生系统支离破碎，未能做好预防、诊断和管理迅速老龄化人口中痴呆症及其共病患病率上升的准备。2新冠肺炎疫情极大地损害了低收入国家的医疗服务提供和医疗安全，特别是在被边缘化的群体中，进一步加深了先前存在的不平等。3为痴呆症和合并症患者使用移动健康的创新(IMPACT)是一个为期4年的项目，由英国国家健康与护理研究所资助。该项目的目标是：(1)评估卫生系统为痴呆症患者及其照顾者提供护理的准备情况；(2)开发和实施社区卫生工作者发现痴呆症病例的数字平台；(3)调整和确定移动健康(称为mHealth)提供和社区卫生工作者支持的干预措施的可行性，以改善痴呆症患者及其照顾者与健康相关的生活质量；以及(4)估计痴呆症的经济负担和评估发现病例的成本效益。该项目最近在受新冠肺炎大流行影响严重的秘鲁启动。Impact的研究活动，连同广泛的能力建设和社区参与方案，将在四个地理和文化不同的地区实施：拥有1000多万居民的特大城市利马；该国北部半城镇化的沿海地区通布斯；海拔3200米的安第斯山脉城市环卡约
By 2050, low-income and middleincome countries will be home to about 68% of the projected 139 million people with dementia worldwide. 1 The fragmented health systems of many such countries are ill-prepared to prevent, diagnose, and manage this increase in prevalence of dementia and its comorbidities in their rapidly ageing populations. 2 The COVID-19 pandemic has drastically compromised healthcare delivery and health security in low-income countries, especially among marginalised groups, further deepening pre-existing inequities. 3 Innovations using mHealth for people with dementia and comorbidities (IMPACT) is a 4-year project, funded by the UK National Institute for Health and Care Research. The project’s objectives are:(1) to evaluate the readiness of the health system to provide care for people with dementia and their carers;(2) to develop and implement a digital platform for dementia case-finding by community health workers;(3) to adapt and identify the feasibility of a mobile health (known as mHealth)-delivered and community health worker-supported intervention to improve health-related quality of life for people with dementia and their carers; and (4) to estimate the economic burden of dementia and assess the cost-effectiveness of case-finding.The project has recently been launched in Peru, a country severely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. IMPACT’s research activities, alongside an extensive capacity-building and community engagement programme, will be implemented across four geographically and culturally diverse regions: Lima, a megacity of over 10 million inhabitants; Tumbes, a semi-urban coastal region in the north of the country; Huancayo, an Andean city at 3200 m above sea
