Great to see as I do my daily review on the invisible risk survey replies that 11% of responses are from our colleagues in Ireland. 94% of all respondent have served between 20-40 years. 10% at diagnosis sit in the age group 20-30. 11% of replies indicate blood cancers. For staff still serving 40% feel the service, organisation could do more. 22% of replies stated they were BA instructors 74% of respondents felt they would possibly have benefitted from mental health support. 23% felt unsupported by their GP/ Doctor, that seems poor to me but does reflect my own experience, one doctor saying to me on my prostate cancer, “it’s the one to have” 68% have not heard of the SNOMED codes, clearly much more needs to be done to ensure these are used and all the NHS use them, not just Some areas. Finally for today,85% indicated in reply either by yes or maybe that early screening would have benefitted them.

🌟 November is Men’s Health Month! 🌟 This month, we focus on the unique health challenges men face, particularly in cancer awareness and prevention. Prostate, lung, and colorectal cancers remain some of the most common cancers affecting men. Awareness, routine screenings, and early intervention are essential to improving outcomes and quality of life. 🩺 The Importance of Screening: Regular screenings for prostate and colorectal cancer, as well as lung cancer for those at high risk, can catch these cancers early when they’re most treatable. If you notice any unusual symptoms, don’t wait—speak to your healthcare provider. ✨ Mental Health Matters Too: Men’s health isn’t just physical. Seeking help for mental health concerns is a strong, essential step toward a healthier, balanced life. Take charge of your health this November and beyond. Prioritize screening, know the signs, and remember: early action can save lives! #MensHealthMonth #CancerAwareness #ScreeningSavesLives #MensHealthMatters #EarlyDetection

A recent World Heart Federation study unveils a disquieting truth: cardiovascular disease (CVD) claims the lives of 1 in 3 women each year, solidifying its position as the leading cause of death among this demographic. However, the gravity of the situation extends even further: - The Disparity: A staggering 35% of female deaths are attributed to CVD – surpassing all cancers combined. - Lack of Awareness: While breast cancer receives significant attention, CVD silently claims three times more female lives through complications. A Missed Diagnosis: Despite these alarming statistics, CVD in women remains understudied, under-recognized, and under-treated. CVD symptoms often manifest differently in women. Atypical presentations, often mistaken for anxiety, lead to misdiagnosis and dismissal of women's concerns. Additionally, high blood pressure, a major CVD risk factor, can go undetected in women, further hindering timely intervention. The Power of Prevention: Up to 80% of heart attacks and strokes in women are preventable through early intervention. This is where our mission aligns. At Ai Health Highway, we are driven by a resolute mission: to reduce premature deaths due to non-communicable diseases (NCDs) by 25% by 2025. A core focus of this mission lies in the early detection and prediction of heart and lung disorders.

Movember is an annual campaign that raises awareness about men’s health issues, including prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and mental health challenges. The movement encourages open conversations and promotes early detection, intervention, and support for men worldwide. 💙🧔🏻 Did you know that suicide rates among men are three to four times higher than among women, according to the World Health Organization (WHO)? Prostate cancer also impacts over 1.4 million men annually, making it the second most common cancer in men globally. These alarming statistics highlight the need for better access to healthcare and mental health support. At RP-DCT, we believe Decentralized Clinical Trials can help address these issues by making care more accessible. Let’s use this month to raise awareness and inspire action—because men’s health matters every day of the year. 💙 #Movember2024 #MensHealthAwareness #DecentralizedCare For getting information about our DCT activities, visit 👉https://lnkd.in/giFeHCYj
