Implementing guidelines to prevent chronic disease in the community

澳大利亚的慢性病负担使预防慢性病成为澳大利亚卫生系统的重要优先事项。预防慢性病的高质量证据是存在的；然而，这种做法缺乏证据。寻找方法落实预防慢性病的证据是国家的迫切需要。本研究旨在将慢性病预防的证据应用于实践。它将生成数据并验证如何有效地提高从业人员和消费者对指南的理解的模型。该项目对国家和社区都有好处，因为它将使预防慢性病的潜力得以实现。

The burden of chronic disease in Australia has resulted in prevention of chronic disease being an important priority for the Australian health system. High quality evidence for preventing chronic disease exists; however the practice falls short of the evidence. Finding ways to implement the evidence for preventing chronic disease is an urgent national need. This study aims to apply the evidence for preventing chronic disease in practice. It will generate data and validate a model on how to effectively improve the uptake of guidelines by both practitioners and consumers. This project is of national and community benefit because it will enable the potential of preventing chronic disease to be realised.
