Over the coming weeks, PHN teams across Queensland are engaging general practice to support participation in PHASES. These visits will focus on: Supporting whole-of-practice engagement Building confidence using Primary Sense Reducing workload barriers Improving data and strengthening practice processes. PHN teams will also be sharing a new suite of PHASES factsheets, covering: CVD Risk Factors […]

This study aims to better understand how CVD risk impacts hospitalisation rates and assess the accuracy of the new CVD risk prediction equation in identifying high-risk individuals within Queensland’s population.
The project will:
Running in parallel with the PHASES project, PHASES Linkage highlights the power of data-driven insights to improve cardiovascular outcomes and reduce hospitalisations.
