Romatizmal kalp hastalığının kontrol ve önlenmesi için maliyet-etkin ve toplum temelli stratejilerinin uygulanması

Year 2013, Volume: 11 Issue: 2, 118 - 120, 28.08.2013

Abstract

Romatizmal kalp hastalığı (RKH), yaşam beklentisinde belirgin azalmaya ve toplumsal ekonomik maliyetlere neden olan yeti kayıpları ile ilişkili akut romatizmal ateşin (ARA) en önemli sekellerinden birisidir. Bu hastalık, gelişmiş ülkelerde neredeyse eradike edilmesine karşın, gelişmekte olan ülkelerde genç bireylerde çoğunlukla kardiyovasküler hastalık ve ölümün bir nedeni olarak önemli bir halk sağlığı sorunu olmaya devam etmektedir. Hastalıktan korunmada ve hastalığın kontrol altına alınmasında farklı güçlükler (dünya çapında kanıtlanmış RKH kontrol stratejilerinin artırılmasındaki gelişmeler; RKH’li hastaların erken tanısı için maliyet etkin tarama yöntemlerinin kullanımı; RKH’de tedavi seçeneklerindeki gelişmeler ve etkili primer koruma stratejileri) tanımlanmıştır. Sosyoekonomik iyileştirmeler, maliyet etkinliği düşük sistematik taramalar ve boğaz ağrılarının tedavisi gibi sınırlılıklar dikkate alındığında, ikincil koruma ARA/RKH kontrolünde başlıca seçenek olmaya devam etmektedir. ARA/RKH prevalansının azaltılması amacıyla sağlık profesyonelleri, sağlık yöneticileri ve politika yapıcıları için çeşitli stratejiler önerilmektedir. Romatizmal ateşte birincil koruma ve ekokardiyografi ile romatizmal kalp hastalığı taraması, şiddetli seyreden romatizmal kalp hastalığı prevalansının azaltılmasında oldukça önemlidir. Yeterli uluslararası fonlarla klinisyenler ve halk sağlığı uygulayıcıları arasında güçlü ilişkilerin kurulmasıyla, ARA ve RKH kolaylıkla kontrol edilebilir

Implementation of cost-effective and community-based strategies for prevention and control of rheumatic heart disease

Year 2013, Volume: 11 Issue: 2, 118 - 120, 28.08.2013

Abstract

Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) is one of the most important sequela of acute rheumatic fever (RF) associated with disabilities that result in substantial reductions of life expectancy and produce economic burdens for society. Although the disease has been almost eradicated from developed nations, it remains a major public health concern in developing nations, where it causes most of the cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in young people. Different challenges (viz. improvement in the uptake of proven RHD control strategies around the world; availability of cost-effective screening methods to identify people with RHD earlier; improvement in the treatment modalities of RHD; and promoting an effective primary prevention strategy) have been identified for the prevention and control of the disease. Considering the limitations associated with bringing about socioeconomic improvements and the poor cost-effectiveness of systematic screening and treatment of sore throats, secondary prophylaxis remains the mainstay of RF/RHD management. Different strategies have been recommended for health professionals, administrators and policy makers towards reducing the prevalence of RF/RHD. Primary prevention of rheumatic fever and screening for rheumatic heart disease with echocardiography has the immense potential to reduce the prevalence of severe rheumatic heart disease. Establishing strong linkages between clinicians and public health infrastructure with adequate international funding, RF and RHD can be easily controlled.
