“With The Patients, For The Patients: Achieving Health Equity In Primary Care”

AprilIssue

6-9 June 2014 (Friday-Monday)

The Hong Kong College of Family Physicians is honored to host and organize the 4th Hong Kong Primary Care Conference (HKPCC) and 4-Party General Practice/Family Medicine Conference (Hong Kong, Macau, Mainland China, and Taiwan) to be held on 6-9 June 2014.

This year, the Organizing Committee has chosen “With the Patients, For the Patients - Achieving Health Equity in Primary Care” as the theme of the conference, highlighting the importance in aspiring to achieve health equity in healthcare delivery at both personal and structural levels. As health equity is a relatively new yet complex concept, it is essential that the communities and health professionals across different sectors become aware of the issues and engage in defining it in their own terms in order to establish key priorities towards making progress. Arguably family doctors and frontline professionals have a role to advocate for our patients to address issues contributing to health disparities. This conference serves as an exciting platform for bringing together policymakers, clinicians and healthcare professionals in addressing present and future challenges in achieving health equity as a key goal.

This conference will provide an excellent opportunity for family doctors in the region to network and learn from each others’ clinical experience and showcase exciting blends of plenary sessions, workshops, seminars, poster, oral and clinical case presentations. As we will also be hosting the 4-Party General Practice/Family Medicine Conference in 2014, there will be parallel sessions conducted in English or Mandarin. Furthermore, site visits to HKWC Tsan Yuk CHC network model (including the Nurse & Allied Health Clinic

and Risk Assessment & Management Clinic) and Family Medicine & Primary Care Centre in Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital will also be arranged to add more insights into recent primary care developments in Hong Kong.

Election to the IOM is considered one of the highest honours in the fields of health and medicine and Albert is the first foreign associate elected from Hong Kong.

Apart from his current post as Professor (Clinical) of the School of Public Health and Primary Care and the Founding Director of Centre for Health Education and Health Promotion, and former Head of Division of Family Medicine and Primary Care of the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK); he also holds Honorary/Adjunct/Visiting professorship in many local and international well known Institutions.

He was a Visiting Fellow at the Division of Geographical Medicine and Infectious Diseases, Tufts-New England Medical Center, Boston, USA.

He is currently the Fellow of Royal Colleges of Physicians of London and Edinburgh.

He has published more than 110 international peer reviewed original articles, including research articles in the Lancet and the Clinical Infectious Diseases.

The WHO in 2008 has stated the need of conjugate vaccines for adults, however, pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCV) adopting the latest conjugate technology is only being used in NIP for children and has not been included in the government subsidy program for adults aged 65 years old and above. Whilst the US CDC Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) has recommended the use of conjugate vaccine prior to polysaccharide vaccine in immunocompromised patients, new country guidelines are also being established globally and locally in the Asia region. The provision of a better option should be considered to achieve equity in patients. This forum aims to provide a platform to interactively discuss and to seek advice on the need of new guidelines on the prevention of pneumococcal disease in adults from the panels in different perspectives as well as from the audience.

SATELLITE SEMINAR II

Using Basal Insulin In Patients with Type 2 Diabetes

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with insulin resistance and slowly progressive beta-cell failure. Patients with T2DM often need insulin therapy at some point after diagnosis. Insulin therapy may be initiated as supplementation or as replacement. Besides the exact treatment goals, the choice of insulin regimen highly depends on individual patients’ aspirations. For most of the patients, starting with once daily intermediate- or long-acting insulin as basal insulin is a more readily acceptable method. The goal of basal insulin is to suppress hepatic glucose production and improve fasting hyperglycemia. Clinical trials show that the use of insulin analogue regimen enable glycaemic targets to be achieved with potentially less risk of hypoglycaemia. In an retrospectively analysis of medical records using Hospital Authority electronic medical records database, use of insulin glargine is associated with statistically significantly reductions in mean HbA1c after 12 months (1.2%; p<0.05). Fasting blood glucose was reduced by 2.9 mmol/L (p<0.05). 26% of T2DM patients were able to reach an HbA1c goal of less than 7%. T2DM who were insulin-naive experienced greater HbA1c reduction (1.7%; p<0.05) than patients who have received once daily NPH or basal-bolus insulin (0.7%; p<0.05 and 0.2%; NS respectively). The improvement in glycemic control was achieved without any significant change in insulin dose and weight. Insulin Glargine was very well tolerated with only 4% of the patients who discontinued glargine after 12 months of therapy.

Dr Chi Kin YEUNG is currently associate consultant in the Department of Medicine, Tseung Kwan O Hospital. He is a

specialist of endocrinology and a certified clinical densitometrist. Dr Yeung obtained his medical degree from the University

of Hong Kong and is currently the Fellow of Hong Kong College of Physicians and Hong Kong Academy of Medicine

(Medicine) and member of the Royal College of Physicians.
