Pages : 241
Book Description
The ESC Handbook of Preventive Cardiology is a 'how-to' manual for busy healthcare professionals. Complementing the 2012 Joint European Guidelines on cardiovascular disease prevention and in line with recommendations from the European Association of Cardiac Prevention and Rehabilitation, it is an invaluable source of tools and skills to assist with the delivery of effective cardiovascular disease prevention. While acknowledging that cardiovascular disease prevention efforts must be complemented by societal and community based strategies, this handbook focuses on practical strategies that can be used in clinical settings. Concise and easily accessible, it guides readers through the patient and family pathway - from patient identification, recruitment of the patient and family, assessing lifestyle and risk factors, to managing lifestyle change, reducing risk factors, and compliance with cardio-protective drug therapies. Information on how to deliver a health promotion workshop programme and run a supervised exercise programme is also included. Previously published as Preventive Cardiology: A practical manual and now fully revised and updated and packed with checklists and diagrams, such as risk estimation charts, The ESC Handbook of Preventive Cardiology helps health workers contribute in real and practical ways to the prevention of artherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

Book Description
The Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs (ASD(HA)) and the three Uniform Service Surgeons General (Army, Navy, Air Force) endorsed the U.S. Public Health Service Put Prevention Into Practice (PPIP) Campaign in 1994. Working from different templates, each service is implementing various efforts to promote the PPIP initiative. This paper examines how the ASD(HA) has facilitated the implementation of PPIP, and has articulated the goal and process of using PPIP in the Military Health Service System (MHSS). The paper will demonstrate that to improve the delivery of preventive health care services through the PPIP initiative, the ASD(HA) should provide prescriptive direction and oversight to the uniform services. This type of management will reduce duplication of effort, enhance standardization of practices, and encourage service interaction. Examples are offered to demonstrate the value of collaboration and continued emphasis on disease prevention and health promotion activities; all working toward a healthier and more productive MHSS. The ASD(HA) has a unique opportunity to not only improve the delivery of clinical preventive services with implementation of the PPIP initiative, but also serve as a role model of health-promoting behaviors for other health care systems around the country.
