Abstract

While there are many opportunities for the prevention or reversal of disease, health care systems worldwide are dominated by people with chronic diseases and conditions. In the USA for example, patients with chronic conditions account for nearly 80% of health care costs. In the UK, neurological damage accounts for 40% of people severely disabled and who require daily help, and for most of those with complex disabilities resulting from a combination of physical, cognitive and behavioural problems. Any health care system is thus confronted on a daily basis with a demand to meet this need from fi nite resources.
