Empowering patients: Harnessing mnemonics for non-communicable disease management

A BSTRACT The epidemiological transition caused a significant non-communicable disease burden in all countries, including India. It can be tackled appropriately by integrating pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions. The outcome of the disease or control status related to the disease condition depends significantly on patient education. Mnemonics is already an accepted way of improving cognition. The newer learning theories talk about different types of mnemonics and their role in imparting knowledge. We developed three mnemonics regarding essential information related to hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and obesity. It will help achieve better control status in those diseases by improving cognition.
