Social, Political & Environmental Issues in CHD Healthcare Report

This report delves into the multifaceted challenges of Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) within the realm of international healthcare. It begins by outlining key risk factors and features of CHD, encompassing its etiology, diagnosis, and disease management, while also linking health concepts to the progression of this chronic disease. The report then examines the impact of international economic, environmental, and political factors on CHD diagnosis, prevalence, and management, specifically within the context of a developed country like the UK. Furthermore, it explores the aetiology and prevalence of CHD in both developed and developing countries (UK and Spain), comparing their diagnostic and management approaches. The report also discusses the strengths and weaknesses of global strategies, particularly those put forth by the WHO, in addressing the global burden of CHD, culminating in a reflection on the learning gained throughout the research and analysis.
