Why Pen Digital
Limited Evidence on Digital vs. WHO PEN Care for NCDs
Digital health platforms are increasingly utilized and accepted. However, there is limited evidence comparing the impact of digital interventions to established WHO PEN standard care. Most existing studies focus on single disease areas rather than holistic prevention of non-communicable diseases (NCDs). Additionally, there is little multi-sife research capturing both urban and semi-urban populations in india.
Our study will examine diabetes and cardiovascular diseases, with a focus on the behavioural modification component foth both digital and WHO interventions.
