Lessons from scaling the Philippines Healthy Hearts Programme
This advocacy resource from Resolve to Save Lives highlights lessons learned and key strategies for improving population-level blood pressure control in the Philippines, which are captured in an upcoming report. The key takeaway: Scaling the Healthy Hearts Programme nationally can avert about half a million premature deaths in the Philippines by 2040 if 50% control rate is achieved and contribute significantly to the WHO Western Pacific Region’s goal of achieving 100 million more people with controlled hypertension by 2030.
