Prevention Strategies

Successful cancer prevention strategies must be tailored to support usability. In this article, we will focus on cancer prevention strategies in populations that differ by race and ethnicity, place and location, sexual orientation and gender identity, and age by providing examples of effective approaches. An individual may belong to none of these categories, to all of these categories, or to some. This intersectionality of belonging characterizes individuals and shapes their experiences. Even within a category, broad diversity exists. Effective cancer prevention strategies comprehensively engage the community at multiple levels of influence and may effectively include lay health workers and faith-based cancer education interventions. Health system efforts that integrate cancer health with other health promotion activities show promise. At the individual physician level, culturally literate approaches have demonstrated success. For example, when discussing cancer screening tests with older adults, clinicians should indicate whether any data suggest that the screening test improves quality or quantity of life and the lag time to benefit from the screening test. This will allow older adults to make an informed cancer screening decision based on a realistic understanding of the potential benefits and risks and their values and preferences. Addressing individual and health system bias remains a challenge. Quality improvement strategies can address gaps in quality of care with respect to timeliness of care, coordination of care, and patient experience. The time is ripe for research on effective and interdisciplinary prevention strategies that harness expertise from preventive medicine, behavioral medicine, implementation science, e-health, telemedicine, and other diverse fields of health promotion.

Background: Cancer is among leading cause of death (8.8 million) worldwide. Around 14.2 million new cases were recorded in 2012 and increasing each year. On the other hand there are about 2.8 billion users of different social media platforms (i.e., 37% of the world population). This tremendous power of social media can be used for disseminating effective information and communication on cancer prevention more efficiently (i.e., in less time to more people) to create awareness against the disease. Tobacco, alcohol and food industry have been using social media for aggressive advertising and marketing of their products. There is an urgent need to maximally use this medium of communication for advancing cancer prevention globally. Aim: To assess the role of social media in implementing effective health promotion strategies to advance cancer prevention. Methods: Extensive Web search has been done on the way social media (e.g., Facebook) is used for advancing public health communication and how it has been leveraged in the field of cancer prevention. Several Facebook pages and groups, YouTube channels were analyzed thoroughly. Various reports and articles on social media have been reviewed and analyzed. Results: Social media has been found very effective in terms of engaging greater number of population globally. Many Facebook pages and groups are available that provide information regarding specific cancer or provide support for cancer survivors. Several informative videos related to cancer prevention and survivors' stories are broadcast on various YouTube channels run by individuals, government, and nongovernment organizations. There have been many Instagram accounts on cancer but many of them don't provide relevant information on cancer prevention. However, genuine and relevant information are available through several Twitter handles. These social media platforms have very high penetration power. Facebook, YouTube, Instagram and Twitter have monthly reach to more than 1871, 1000, 500 and 263 million users respectively. This large number of user base can become a great source of spreading information on various aspects of cancer prevention through a comprehensive social media campaign. Conclusion: Social media platforms improve outreach and can also help carrying the relevant preventive health messages on cancer prevention, not only for the cancer patient but the public at large. Social media will help in amplifying the messages to the global mass while motivating prevention and health promotion to achieve public health objectives.

The Healthy Indonesia Program aims to improve health status through health efforts and equitable health services. The positive side of the success of health development is the increasing life expectancy. But it has a negative impact, namely the increasing incidence of degenerative diseases, one of which is hypertension. Hypertension is often called the "silent killer" because it can appear without symptoms or warning signs, so many do not realize it so that the prevalence of hypertension increases. The breadth of the work area and the lack of health workers, can lead to a lack of public access to health services, so the elderly who have hypertension are less able to control the condition of the disease. Cadres of Non-Communicable Diseases Posyandu (PTM) can be the first line in reaching the community, when health workers are not available. Posyand cadres can also be an extension of their hands in increasing people's knowledge and understanding of hypertension, even cadres can carry out blood pressure checks independently. The purpose of community service is IbM activities for Posyandu cadres of PTM, especially in Kelurahan Bantarsari in the form of counseling about hypertension and training in blood pressure measurement. The population and sample in this service were 24 cadres in Bantarsari village. Data was collected using a questionnaire in the form of questions to find out the knowledge of participants before and after training and a checklist to measure skills. Data analysis using the Paired-Samples T Test. The material used is a blood pressure measuring device, the OMRON brand digital sphygmomanometer using a new battery. The results of this activity are all female cadres, with a age range of 21-45 years. Educational background for cadres is 79.16% of high school graduates and 20.84% ​​of junior high school graduates. The results of the Paired-Samples T Test analysis obtained p value 0,000 which means that there is an influence of counseling and training conducted on cadre knowledge about blood pressure measurement. In conclusion, counseling and training for cadres has a good influence in increasing their knowledge, so it is expected to reduce the incidence of hypertension in their target areas.

The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that 15% - 20% of pregnant women experience complications. If this problem does not receive adequate treatment, pregnancy complications can contribute to maternal mortality, therefore detecting from the beginning the presence of abnormalities, complications, and complications of pregnancy must be carried out proactively by both health workers and the community, one of them by the health cadres. This study aims to determine the relationship between motivation, supervision, education and training on the ability of the health cadres in the promotion of health of pregnant women. The study was conducted on 7 February to 6 May 2016. This research was an explanatory study with quantitative research methods using a cross-sectional approach. The number of samples was 269 active health cadres. The sampling technique is multi-stage cluster random sampling. Independent variables include motivation, supervision, education and training. The dependent variable is the ability of the health cadres to promote the health of pregnant women. Data collection using a questionnaire, data analysis using Path Analysis. Factors related to the ability of the health cadres in the promotion of health promotion for pregnant women include: motivation (b = 0.68, 95% CI = 0.16 to 1.42, p = 0.01); supervision (b = 1.11, CI 95% = 0.58 to 1.65, p = <0.001), education and training (b = 0.88, 95% CI = 0.36 to 1.21, p = <0.001). Factors related with motivation include: supervision (b = 0.61. 95% CI = 0.13 to 1.11, p = 0.01); education and training: (b = -0.04, 95% CI = -0.52 to 0.44, p = 0.86). df = 1; AIC = 707.81; BIC=732.29. There is a relationship between motivation, supervision, education and training with the ability of health cadres to promote the health of pregnant women. Supervision is the most related factor. Supervision is related to motivation, good supervision will increase the motivation of health cadres, while education and training relate to motivation, health cadres with good education and training, reduce motivation in health promotion, but not statistically significant.

ObjectivesUndertake a systematic scoping review to determine how a research evidence base, in the form of existing systematic reviews in the field of mobile health (mHealth), constitutes education and training for community health workers (CHWs) who use mobile technologies in everyday work. The review was informed by the following research questions: does educational theory inform the design of the education and training component of mHealth interventions? How is education and training with mobile technology by CHWs in low-income and middle-income countries categorised by existing systematic reviews? What is the basis for this categorisation?SettingThe review explored the literature from 2000 to 2017 to investigate how mHealth interventions have been positioned within the available evidence base in relation to their use of formal theories of learning.ResultsThe scoping review found 24 primary studies that were categorised by 16 systematic reviews as supporting CHWs’ education and training using mobile technologies. However, when formal theories of learning from educational research were used to recategorise these 24 primary studies, only four could be coded as such. This identifies a problem with how CHWs’ education and training using mobile technologies is understood and categorised within the existing evidence base. This is because there is no agreed on, theoretically informed understanding of what counts as learning.ConclusionThe claims made by mHealth researchers and practitioners regarding the learning benefits of mobile technology are not based on research results that are underpinned by formal theories of learning. mHealth suffers from a reductionist view of learning that underestimates the complexities of the relationship between pedagogy and technology. This has resulted in miscategorisations of what constitutes CHWs’ education and training within the existing evidence base. This can be overcome by informed collaboration between the health and education communities.

Purpose. To determine if a mailed health promotion program reduced outpatient visits while improving health status. Design. Randomized controlled trial. Setting. A midsized, group practice model, managed care organization in Ohio. Subjects. Members invited (N = 3214) were high utilizers, 18 to 64 years old, with hypertension, diabetes, or arthritis (or all). A total of 886 members agreed to participate, and 593 members returned the initial questionnaires. The 593 members were randomized to the following groups: 99 into arthritis treatment and 100 into arthritis control, 94 into blood pressure treatment and 92 into blood pressure control, and 104 into diabetes treatment and 104 into diabetes control. Measures. Outpatient utilization, health status, and self-efficacy were followed over 30 months. Interventions. Health risk appraisal questionnaires were mailed to treatment and control groups before randomization and at 1 year. The treatment group received three additional condition-specific (arthritis, diabetes, or hypertension) questionnaires and a health information handbook. The treatment group also received written health education materials and an individualized feedback letter after each returned questionnaire. The control group received condition-specific written health education materials and reimbursement for exercise equipment or fitness club membership after returning the 1-year end of the study questionnaire. Results. Changes in visit rates were disease specific. Parameter estimates were calculated from a Poisson regression model. For intervention vs. controls, the arthritis group decreased visits 4.84 per 30 months (p < 0.00), the diabetes group had no significant change, and the hypertension group increased visits 2.89 per 30 months (p < 0.05), the overall health status improved significantly (−6.5 vs. 2.3, p < 0.01) for the arthritis group but showed no significant change for the other two groups, and coronary artery disease and cancer risk scores did not change significantly for any group individually. Overall self-efficacy for intervention group completers improved by −8.6 points (p < 0.03) for the arthritis group, and the other groups showed no significant change. Conclusions. This study demonstrated that in a population of 18 to 64 years with chronic conditions, mailed health promotion programs might only benefit people with certain conditions.
