Global Community Health Screening and Educational Intervention for Early Detection of Cardiometabolic Renal Disease
The global burden of cardiometabolic renal disease is increasing, particularly in underserved communities. Twinepidemic Inc.'s Galvanize Healthy Living program conducts community screenings, risk assessments, and educational interventions globally. We screened 1209 subjects for cardiovascular-k...

| 520 | |a The global burden of cardiometabolic renal disease is increasing, particularly in underserved communities. Twinepidemic Inc.'s Galvanize Healthy Living program conducts community screenings, risk assessments, and educational interventions globally. We screened 1209 subjects for cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome, assessing their disease knowledge and self-confidence. Mean age was 50, with 65% females and 35% males. Imaging post-risk assessment revealed abnormalities: EKG (16%), echocardiogram (10%), carotid plaque (9%), ABI (2.5%), and eye exam (3.6%, including 8 retinopathies, 14 cataracts). New onset DM was found in 8%, prediabetes in 18.5%, High LDL in 4.2%, low HDL in 40.2%, high triglycerides in 13.1%, and abnormal BP in 38%. In addition, 18.2% were reclassified to a higher category of risk levels after imaging. Significant improvements in knowledge and self-empowerment (all p < 0.001) were seen after educational interventions. This study underscores early risk assessment's potential to enhance health outcomes globally for underserved populations, validating POC imaging and emphasizing the role of accessible care and education in patient engagement and empowerment. | ||
