Disease: basic details on chronic disease management
$9.47
Chronic diseases are a growing concern worldwide, with an estimated 41 million deaths each year due to chronic disease associated causes. Chronic diseases are long-term, persistent medical conditions that often require ongoing treatment and management. They are often associated with older age, but can also affect people of all ages, including children and young adults. Unlike acute illnesses, such as the common cold, which have a short duration and can be easily treated, chronic diseases have a prolonged course, lasting for months or even years. These diseases generally progress slowly and symptoms may not be immediately apparent. Examples of chronic diseases include heart disease, stroke, cancer, diabetes, and arthritis. One of the main characteristics of chronic diseases is their high prevalence and significant impact on individuals, families, and communities. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), chronic diseases are responsible for 71% of all deaths globally, with cardiovascular diseases being the leading cause.
