Inclusion of Polypills for Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease in the 23rd World Health Organization Model List of Essential Medicines: A Significant Step Towards Reducing Global Cardiovascular Morbidity and Mortality.
This commentary describes the potential impact of inclusion of polypills for prevention of cardiovascular disease in the 23rd WHO Model List of Essential Medicines, and provides a roadmap for adoption, implementation, sustainment, and scale-up. The World Health Organization's endorsement of polypills is essential for improving global access, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. The greatest health gains are expected in a primary prevention population which has a significantly higher burden of fatal and non-fatal cardiovascular disease compared with the population of individuals with prevalent cardiovascular disease. A focus on adoption, implementation, sustainment, and scale-up of polypills for prevention of cardiovascular disease is needed including increasing supply of available polypills and incorporating polypills into the World Health Organization HEARTS technical package for integration into primary care systems to realize these benefits for population health. Widespread implementation of polypills for prevention of cardiovascular disease has the potential to equitably reduce the impact of cardiovascular disease globally by simplifying treatment options and expanding accessibility across economic levels, both across and within countries.

期刊介绍:
Global Heart offers a forum for dialogue and education on research, developments, trends, solutions and public health programs related to the prevention and control of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) worldwide, with a special focus on low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Manuscripts should address not only the extent or epidemiology of the problem, but also describe interventions to effectively control and prevent CVDs and the underlying factors. The emphasis should be on approaches applicable in settings with limited resources.
Economic evaluations of successful interventions are particularly welcome. We will also consider negative findings if important. While reports of hospital or clinic-based treatments are not excluded, particularly if they have broad implications for cost-effective disease control or prevention, we give priority to papers addressing community-based activities. We encourage submissions on cardiovascular surveillance and health policies, professional education, ethical issues and technological innovations related to prevention.
Global Heart is particularly interested in publishing data from updated national or regional demographic health surveys, World Health Organization or Global Burden of Disease data, large clinical disease databases or registries. Systematic reviews or meta-analyses on globally relevant topics are welcome. We will also consider clinical research that has special relevance to LMICs, e.g. using validated instruments to assess health-related quality-of-life in patients from LMICs, innovative diagnostic-therapeutic applications, real-world effectiveness clinical trials, research methods (innovative methodologic papers, with emphasis on low-cost research methods or novel application of methods in low resource settings), and papers pertaining to cardiovascular health promotion and policy (quantitative evaluation of health programs.
