Background Vietnam is in the process of an epidemiological transition, with cardiovascular disease (CVD) now ranked as leading cause death. The burden CVD will continue to rise unless effective interventions for addressing its underlying risk factors are put place. Objectives To assess costs, health effects and cost-effectiveness a set personal non-personal prevention strategies reduce Vietnam, including mass media campaigns reducing consumption salt tobacco, drugs lowering blood pressure or...
Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam, is political, economic, cultural, and social center, converging all factors to develop tourism into a key economic sector. Human resources (HR) are basic factor in promoting sustainable development. In previous studies, three aspects development enterprises financial performance, environmental cost performance both affected by green human management, GHRM (Yusoff et al., 2018; Longoni 2016; Zaid 2018). Therefore, article focuses on determining effect friendly...
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the leading causes morbidity and mortality in Vietnam hypertension (HTN) an important prevalent risk factor for CVD adult Vietnamese population. Despite increasing prevalence HTN this country, information about awareness, treatment, control limited. The objectives study were to describe prevalence, HTN, factors associated with these endpoints, residents a mountainous province Vietnam.Data from 2,368 adults (age≥25 years) participating population-based...
Introduction Vietnam is experiencing an epidemiologic transition with increased prevalence of non-communicable diseases. The country needs novel, large-scale, and sustainable interventions to improve hypertension control. We report the 12 month follow-up results a cluster randomized feasibility trial in Hung Yen province, Vietnam, which evaluated acceptability two community-based control: "storytelling" didactic intervention. Methods storytelling intervention included stories patients' own...
BackgroundNon-communicable diseases (NCDs) are reaching epidemic proportions worldwide and present an unprecedented challenge to economic social development globally. In Southeast Asia, the challenges exacerbated by vastly differing levels of health systems funding availability. addressing burden NCDs, ASEAN nations need fundamentally re-examine how care services structured delivered discover new models as undiscerning application from other geographies with different cultures resources will...
Background Cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes morbidity and mortality in Vietnam. We conducted a pilot study Hanoi residents hospitalized with first acute myocardial infarction (AMI) at Vietnam National Heart Institute for purposes describing prevalence cardiovascular (CVD) non-CVD comorbidities their impact on hospital management, in-hospital clinical complications, short-term these patients. Methods The population consisted 302 AMI largest tertiary care medical center...
Vietnam is experiencing an epidemiologic transition with increased prevalence of non-communicable diseases. Novel, large-scale, effective, and sustainable interventions to control hypertension in are needed. We report the results a cluster-randomized feasibility trial at 3 months follow-up conducted Hung Yen province, Vietnam, designed evaluate acceptability two community-based improve control: "storytelling" intervention, "We Talk about Our Hypertension," didactic intervention. The...
Vietnam is experiencing an epidemiologic transition with increased prevalence of non-communicable diseases. At present, the major risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) are either on rise or at alarming levels in Vietnam; inasmuch, burden CVD will continue to increase this country unless effective prevention and control measures put place. A national survey 2008 found that hypertension (HTN) was approximately 25 % among Vietnamese adults it advancing age. Therefore, novel,...

We conducted a pilot study Hanoi residents hospitalized with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) at Vietnam National Heart Institute Hanoi. The objectives this observational were to examine sex differences clinical characteristics, hospital management, in-hospital complications, patients an initial AMI. Methods population consisted 302 first AMI largest tertiary care medical center 2010. Results...
Background Vietnam is experiencing an increasing prevalence of hypertension in its adult population. In addition to medical therapy, modifying adverse lifestyle practices important for effective blood pressure control. There are limited data on unhealthy patients with chronic diseases, however, particularly among hypertensive living rural Vietnam. Our study objectives were examine the and associated factors Vietnamese adults uncontrolled hypertension. Methods Data from baseline survey a...
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a profound worldwide impact. Vietnam, lower middle-income country with limited resources, successfully slowed this pandemic. objectives of report are to explore the impact on research activities an ongoing hypertension trial using storytelling intervention in Vietnam. Data were collected mixed-methods study among 86 patients and 10 health care workers participating clinical designed improve control. Several questions related patient's daily adherence...
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, but implementation evidence-based interventions for risk factors such as hypertension is lacking, particularly in low middle income countries (LMICs). Building research capacity LMICs required to overcome this gap. Members Global Research on Implementation Translation Science (GRIT) Consortium have been collaborating recent years establish a training infrastructure dissemination improve care. GRIT includes...
Abstract Background Vietnam has been experiencing an epidemiologic transition to that of a lower-middle income country with increasing prevalence non-communicable diseases. The key risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) are either on the rise or at alarming levels in Vietnam, particularly hypertension (HTN). Inasmuch, burden CVD will continue increase Vietnamese population unless effective prevention and control measures put place. objectives proposed project evaluate implementation...

Despite this, little known about how climate change adaptation at household level differs across countries this geographic region. This cross-country study investigated factors influencing adopting three practices: growing climate-tolerant crops, intercropping, and switching to cash crops some selected provinces Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia. Based on survey data from 1017 farm households these countries, paper found that...
We tested an adapted version of effective U.S.-based peer-texting intervention to promote Quitline use and smoking cessation among rural participants in Vietnam.
Between 2010 and 2011, stakeholders implemented a multi-faceted community-based intervention in response to the escalating issue of uncontrolled hypertension Hung Yen province, Vietnam. This initiative integrated expanded community health worker services, home blood pressure self-monitoring, unique "storytelling intervention" into routine clinical care. From limited societal perspective, our study evaluates cost-effectiveness this using Markov model with one-year cycle over lifetime horizon....
