Research directions
[edit]Research funders in the UK, including the Medical Research Council (MRC), the Wellcome Trust and the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) have published the "Cross-funder multimorbidity research framework" which sets out a vision for the research agenda of multiple long-term conditions. The framework aims to drive advances in the understanding of multiple long-term conditions and promote a change in research culture to tackle multimorbidity.[1][2] The NIHR also published its own strategic framework regarding MLTC which aligns with the cross-funder framework.[3]
As rehabilitation usually focuses on a single disease people with multiple long-term conditions are often excluded or not all their conditions are treated during rehabilitation. Researchers are looking for new models of rehabilitation that could be applied to people with multimorbidity.[4][5] For example the PERFORM trial is developing an exercise-based rehabilitation intervention that can be personalised for people with multiple long-term conditions.[6]
