Getting serious about prevention
What can the NHS do?
1. Population level interventions, eg:
• National policy and strategy
• Local action through STP partnerships
2. Support for individual behaviour change, eg:
• NHS Health Check
• Diabetes Prevention Programme
• Social prescribing
3. Early diagnosis and optimal treatment of the high risk conditions
• NHS RightCare Programme
• NHS Health CheckDiabetes Prevention Programme – Early indicators
1. Coverage 75% England
2. On target to enrol 100,000 by 2020
3. Take up 48%
• Half male
• 80% under 75
• More from deprived and BAME communities
4. Retention – TBC

Secondary Prevention
The High Risk conditions for CVD
But late diagnosis and suboptimal treatment are common 15High Risk Conditions: opportunity for improvement
Diagnosed
6 in 10*
High Blood Pressure
Controlled to 140/90 6 in 10*
Known AF and
Atrial Fibrillation on anticoagulant 1 in 2*
at time of stroke
10 year CVD risk
High Cholesterol above 20% and 1 in 2*
on statins
All 8 care processes
1 in 2*
Type 2 Diabetes
All 3 treatment targets
4 in 10*
(*with wide geographical variation)BUT … what about the real (clinical) world? o GPs are overworked and have NO capacity o Pulse and blood pressure checking and counselling about statins is important but is often trumped by other priorities o Patients often bring multiple priorities of their own to consultations o Improvement in secondary prevention will not come from working harder or reading guidelines more often o It will only come from doing things differently …. and by making the system work better for clinicians and their patients
High Impact Interventions
Resources:
• Atrial Fibrillation
• High Blood Pressure
23Improving detection and management of the high
risk conditions for CVD: the key local ingredients
1. Doing things differently – high impact interventions
• Mobilising the wider system to support general practice
• Expanded role for pharmacists in diagnosis, management & adherence
• Self testing and self monitoring
• Shared decision making – eg anticoags and statins
• New technologies eg AliveCor, WatchBP
• Boosting NHS Health Check uptake
2. Local clinical leadership – GP, nurse, consultant, pharmacist, public health,
commissioner, patient
3. Local intelligence – how many local people have high risk conditions that are
undiagnosed or under-treated?
4. Clarity of vision - relentless local focus on the size of the prize - how many
strokes and heart attacks could we prevent by doing better?Stow Health

What can STPs do to improve 2o prevention?
1. Awareness raising
2. Making it easy to get your pulse and BP tested, making it normal to know your
heart numbers, eg
• Mobile units in shops and community centres
• Automatic machines in workplaces and leisure centres
• More people trained to measure BP in routine encounters
o opticians, pharmacy technicians, community workers, firefighters etc
• Increasing uptake of NHS Health Check
3. Supporting maximal roll out of NHS RightCare CVD prevention programme
