Health Services >
There is growing evidence that health services are unattainable in the next 10 to
20 years unless radical change is implemented. In many parts of the world, the average
population is getting older and the number of healthcare professionals is not increasing
in sufficient numbers to provide the necessary care. Citizens rightly demand a high
standard of service from their healthcare providers. However, for any reasonable
standard of care to be achieved we must enable the patient to take greater involvement
in the management of their health, provide the healthcare professionals with more
efficient tools through technology to assist their patients and health services
to achieve a high standard of healthcare in the most efficient way possible.
The dabl system uses internationally recognised protocols,
established through evidenced based research to provide the medical team with the
necessary information to make an initial diagnosis and provide ongoing management
of the patient. Ongoing use of the dabl system, especially
in a shared care environment, enables the medical team to manage and easily monitor
the program of care of the patient in accordance with best practice. This process
has shown significant improvements in outcomes, clinically, humanistically and economically.
The dabl Shared Care
ONLINE System enables Health Services on a local, regional and national
level to deliver the highest standard of chronic disease management. No other system
provides the level of expertise and knowledgebase to medical teams and national
health services for the day to day PREVENTION and MANAGEMENT of patients.
New Health Report Exposes Serious Social and Economic Implications of Emerging Global High Blood Pressure Crisis
The rate of uncontrolled high blood pressure may increase by 60 percent over the next two decades (1,2) and potentially trigger a global epidemic of cardiovascular disease, according to a report released today by three international health experts and endorsed or supported by 12 leading medical groups from around the world. High blood pressure can severely damage major organ systems and lead to fatal heart attacks, stroke, kidney disease and dementia.
The report, High Blood Pressure and Health Policy: Where We Are and Where We Need to Go Next, launched at the European Parliament, calls for all levels of government and healthcare policy-makers to take action to manage the threat of high blood pressure through targeted education, better management strategies, enhanced medical collaboration, and improved medications.
