Dr. Harsh Vardhan, Union Health Minister of Family Welfare
today presided over the foundation day celebrations and launch of the decadal
year of the Indian Council of Medial Research - National Centre
for Disease Informatics and Research (ICMR-NCDIR),
Bengaluru through a video conference.
The Union Health Minister also released results from the
largest comprehensive national survey on risk factors and health systems
preparedness of Non-communicable Diseases (NCD) along with the framework on use
of telemedicine for cancer, diabetes, heart diseases and stroke.
At the outset, Dr. Harsh Vardhan shared his deep gratitude
on behalf of the whole country to the scientists of ICMR for their immeasurable
contribution in controlling the pandemic. He said, “The year 2020 brings back
memories of gloom due to COVID. Yet, it has also sowed Hope. It was also the
year of Science and Scientists. They not only eased the pressure on testing
kits by developing indigenous kits but reversed the position completely with
indigenous testing kits now being exported worldwide. ICMR was one of the first
organizations worldwide to have isolated the virus as well as the mutant strain
and has contributed in creating a biorepository of potential drug targets.” “
Expressing his elation at the release of theNational
Non-communicable Disease Monitoring Survey (NNMS)across
The Minister was apprised on the key findings and
attributes of the study.(NNMS) was conducted during the period of 2017 – 18.
The purpose of the survey was to collect reliable baseline data on key
indicators (risk factors, select NCDs and health systems response) related to
the National NCD monitoring framework and NCD Action Plan. This is the first of
its kind of a comprehensive survey on NCDs using standardised tools and
methods, covering the age groups of 15-69 years, males and females residing in
urban and rural areas of the country.The survey covered a national sample of
600 primary sampling units from 348 districts in 28 States in collaboration
with eleven reputed institutions across the country.
The results show that, one in every three adults and more
than one-fourth proportion of men used any form of tobacco and consumed alcohol
in past 12 months respectively; average daily intake of salt was 8gms; more
than two in five adults and one in four adolescents were doing insufficient
physical activity; more than one in every four adults and 6.2% adolescents were
overweight or obese; almost three out of ten adults had raised blood pressure
and 9.3% had raised blood glucose; two in five adults had three or more risk
factors for NCDs. The status of health system in responding to the NCD burden
was also underscored.
Dr. Harsh Vardhan noted, “The survey was undertaken to
provide baseline information on NCD risk factors and it highlights the need to
improve comprehensive multi-sectoral approaches focussed on both prevention and
management of NCDs. Regular surveillance of NCDs is critical to monitor the
trends and to guide the interventions.”
He also released the Framework for Telemedicine use in
Management of Cancer, Diabetes, Cardiovascular Disease and Stroke in Indiaand
said, “Telemedicine with its components of tele-consultation, tele-monitoring,
tele-triage can be integrated to build continuum of care model for major NCDs.
The increasing burden of NCDs in
Dr. Harsh Vardhan also highlighted the need for stronger
collaborative efforts: “AIIMS Jhajjar has become a centre for excellent Cancer
Care. Co-operation between health practitioners and researchers is the way
forward and the mode of video-conferences, which has surfaced in the times of
COVID, should be utilized to the maximum.”
The Union Health Minister ended the meeting on a note of
caution. “A WHO survey some years back found that 45% of NCDs are a result of
physical inactivity. The Fit India Movement has gained significant momentum in
generating awareness regarding this which needs to be further amplified. More
gyms and exercise centers will invariably lessen the need for hospital
infrastructure.”
Prof. Balram Bhargava, Secretary (Health Research) and
Director General, ICMR, Mrs. Anu Nagar, Jt. Secretary (Health Research), Dr
R.S. Dhaliwal, Director, Division of NCD(ICMR), Dr Samiran Panda, Director,
Division of ECD (ICMR), Dr Rajni Kant, Director, Division of RMPCC (ICMR) were
present physically. Dr. Prashant Mathur, Director ICMR-NCDIR officiated the
event.
