What efforts have been made to reduce cardiovascular disease through equity lenses?
Efforts to reduce cardiovascular disease through equity lenses have been reviewed in a 2010 paper by Beauchamp et al. titled 'Best Practice for Prevention and Treatment of Cardiovascular Disease through an Equity Lens: A Review'. This paper discussed the role of the built environment, selected risk factors, and major cardiovascular disease outcomes. Additionally, a 2017 paper by Billioux et al. titled 'Standardized Screening for Health-Related Social Needs in Clinical Settings: The Accountable Health Communities Screening Tool' discussed the development of a screening tool to identify health-related social needs in clinical settings. Additionally, a 2010 report by Morgenstern et al. titled 'Report from the Strategic Planning Advisory Panel on Health Disparities: Report of the NINDS Advisory Panel on Health Disparities Research' discussed the role of identifying and addressing health disparities. Finally, AHRQ Health Literacy Universal Precautions Toolkit was developed to help healthcare providers recognize and address areas of potential health literacy challenges.
