In 2016, the government of Saudi Arabia launched the National Transformation Program to ensure the realisation of Kingdom's Vision 2030. One of the strategic objectives is Health Promotion against Health Risks (Public Health System and Health Disasters Management). The new Institutional Transformation and Health Care Model involves actions focusing on diseases prevention and strengthening the primary health care system. Success of the new Health Care Model in Saudi Arabia is only possible when considering assessment of factors influencing national prevalence of health risk factors and early detection of chronic diseases. This notion mandates availability of national screening programs that are able to identify individuals at risk or asymptomatically suffering from chronic diseases. This review is aiming to provide an overall overview of current governmental national screening programs in Saudi Arabia, to assess utilisation and outcomes of screening services in Saudi Arabia and assessment of effectiveness of current national screening programs.
2016 年,沙特阿拉伯政府启动了国家转型计划,以确保实现王国的 2030 愿景。战略目标之一是促进健康以应对健康风险(公共卫生系统和卫生灾害管理)。新的体制转型和医疗保健模式涉及注重疾病预防和加强初级卫生保健系统的行动。只有考虑到评估影响国家健康风险因素流行率和早期发现慢性病的因素,沙特阿拉伯的新医疗保健模式才能取得成功。这一概念要求提供国家筛查计划,以识别有风险或无症状患有慢性病的个人。本综述旨在全面概述沙特阿拉伯目前的政府国家筛查计划,评估沙特阿拉伯筛查服务的利用情况和结果,并评估当前国家筛查计划的效果。
