- Chronic disease requires daily self-management for optimal health
outcomes and quality of life
- Expertise at self-management results from an ongoing process of
learning and skill development, self-care behaviour integration,
and ongoing support
- Key responsibility of health care providers is assessing
self-care skills and behaviour, providing appropriate
interventions, and evaluating outcomes
- The American Association of Diabetes Educators (AADE) has
introduced a framework known as the AADE7™ Self-Care Behaviors
- Patient-centric approach aligns the deliverers, settings,
interventions and outcomes
- Online system presented to demonstrate standardization of
nomenclature as foundation for discussion of practice, outcome
measurement, research and policymaking

- Priority is overwhelmingly given to cure and care
- Expectation that prevention should be cost-saving is wrong
and unrealistic
- Expected health and economic benefits of prevention are large but
we know little about cost of equally effective interventions
- Evidence of cost-effective primary preventive interventions
- Market failure: private returns to non-clinical prevention are lower
than social returns - A clear efficiency case for more government
action both in research and intervention to prevent chronic disease
- Case for scaling up preventive efforts in Europe, backed up by solid
epidemiological and economic research

- In Western countries, economically active populations are
shrinking as a result of demographic change
- Chronic ill health reduces further the economic potential of
a country
- A whole population approach to prevention of chronic ill health
is needed to reduce the burden on health care systems and
provide economic benefits
- Countries should consider the potential for economic growth in
deciding how much to spend on management of chronic disease
