A multi-faceted electronic health intervention to prevent and manage vascular disease in Australia

心脏病和中风是澳大利亚死亡和残疾的主要原因，土著和托雷斯海峡岛民的发病率要高得多；然而，大多数都是可以预防的。医学专业人员可以获得预防心脏病发作和中风的医学指南，但很少有人充分利用它们的潜力。我的研究揭示了一种新的健康干预措施，它将广泛提高初级保健人员预防和管理心脏病和中风的能力。

Heart disease and stroke are the leading cause of death and disability in Australia with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people experiencing it at a far greater rate; however most can be prevented. Medical guidelines to prevent heart attacks and strokes are available to medical professionals, but they’re rarely used to their full potential. My research uncovers a new health intervention that will broadly improve the ability of primary care staff to prevent and manage heart disease and stroke.
