NHS Choices Launches Heart Disease Pathway

Date:3/12/2008

LONDON, March 12 /PRNewswire/ -- NHS Choices (http://www.nhs.uk), the digital 'front door' to the NHS, launches a new guide aimed to help people understand the different stages of coronary heart disease (CHD) - from avoiding CHD right through to living with the condition.

Based on NHS accredited information, the information pathway (http://www.nhs.uk/pathways/coronaryheartdisease/Pages/Landing.aspx) enables users to learn more about CHD in seconds. It provides them with clinically approved guidance to help them either change their lifestyle and lower their risk of getting the disease, or - for those diagnosed with CHD - become an expert on its management. This pathway is the latest addition to the NHS Choices' extensive Health A-Z index.

"Pathways are a new aggregating tool designed to present all relevant content in one place and give users even easier access to quality health information both on NHS Choices and from other trusted sources," said a spokesman.
