The term Non-communicable diseases is a well-known within the medical community however to the greater population the term is not. As mentioned by Allen & Feigl (2017)the current term of Non-communicable diseases is ambiguous however not useless. Within the larger medical community, government departments, non-governmental organisations, and academic units use Non-communicable diseases in their own names and programme titles.

There is little documented evidence into the terms of Non-communicable diseases and / or socially transmitted conditions. That could be as the term socially transmitted conditions is a new term that was suggested by Allen & Feigl (2017). By using a new terminology there is the potential for barriers to inhibit the uptake process. Kahn et al. (2014)mention a lack of standardised terminology can become a barrier to data reporting of impacts of disease due to differing terms being utilised for the same disease(s). The use of well-characterised terminology allows for an understanding of common meaning and supports data reuse and integration. A common terminology allows for data collection to build upon previous findings and to reuse data collection tools and data management processes.

However, the implementation of a new term for chronic diseases may reduce some of the stigma surrounding non communicable chronic diseases. Does anyone have any thoughts on the stigma surrounding non communicable chronic diseases?
