In a wordmost of the studies indicated towards the positive outcome in child care.There are several limitations of this review that is the studies were heterogeneous havingvaried definitions interventions, designs and outcome measures. Many of the studies had nocomparison groups making the chance of the confounding bias high. Another limitation is theconfinement of the search strategy to the English language studies. The implication of this study is that, in spite of the presence of a large number of literarysources very little can be known about the comprehensive system of care that provides the scopeof more research. Other areas to be focused on are reduction of the health care costs andintroduction of the new technologies. 2.Citation:Hoy, W.E., Davey, R.L., Sharma, S., Hoy, P.W., Smith, J.M. and Kondalsamy‐Chennakesavan, S., 2010.

The paper also aims to discuss the implications of the findings after thechronic disease management program.Summary: Programs were mainly centered round the health care worker and involved regularscreening of the adults for the presence of any chronic diseases. Rigorous documentations weremade regarding the rates of the hypertension, diabetes and renal diseases. The program was donemainly for the middle age adults. Adherence to the protocols improved after the health careprogram. Individuals were motivated to take part in the screening procedures. Interventionsbrought about better outcomes in the hypertensive patients.Analysis: In the NT communities the rates of diabetes hypertension and renal diseases were calculated. Itwas found that the hypertension and the renal diseases were common in younger age whilediabetes was seen to be appearing in the age old adults. Diabetes was found to be 3 to 8 timeshigher in the aboriginals, 2.5 to 5.3 fold increases in proteinuria and 10 fold increases in diabetes.In the NT communities the compliance with the protocol was found to be increased withtime. The intervention program was associated with the proper diagnosis of the chroniccondition, adherence to the treatment and awareness to the self management of the disease. The implication for this program is that it could show that most of the aboriginals in theremote areas actually need attention by the early or the mid-adult life and that regular screeningis extremely necessary to check the chronic conditions such as diabetes. The program alsoindicated towards the physical, mental and the economical burden caused by the chronic disease.
