Overweight and Medical Condition in US : 3 Factors that affect Childhood obe...Sumit Roy
Obesity and the risk of being overweight, leads to not only chronic medical condition, but also makes an individual susceptible to many kinds of conditions. The paper from American heart foundation. shares numbers that are quite frightning
Studies have shown that up to 90 percent of diabetes, 80 percent of cardiovascular disease and 60 percent of cancers can be prevented through weight loss and other life style intervention with existing knowledge! The only problem is that we do not adequately train our physicians and other health care providers in dealing with the complex issues that lead to weight gain! Therefore, most physicians have nothing to offer their overweight or obese patients to lose weight other than simply say "lose weight" or hand out a diet sheet. This is not useful for most patients as obesity needs a more thorough and structured approach.
Here are 8 amazing health benefits of losing weight as reported by the US Surgeon General and adapted for this presentation.
If you are overweight or obese, and need help losing weight with health insurance, consider W8MD (pronounced w'eight'MD) Medical Weight Loss Centers unique insurance physician weight loss and wellness programs in New York City, Greater Philadelphia and other places!
Lose weight, sleep better and live longer!
Taking account of research around the relationship between genetics and our new ‘food environment’, Dr Robyn Toomath (endocrinologist and Clinical Director Wellington Hospital) argues that we are in the middle of an obesity epidemic which impacts widely on public health. She advocates for new approaches to obesity based not on blame or impossible personal goals, but on outcomes. She argues it is the responsibility of all to become informed and active (personally and politically), in working for change to present health policies and gives examples of what can be done.

Using Data in Public and Community Health
What is Public Health?
What is Public Health?
The fulfillment of society’s interest in assuring the conditions in which people can be healthy.
Organized community efforts aimed at the prevention of disease and the promotion of health.
See videos on Moodle
Public Health vs. Medical Care
In medicine, the patient is the individual; in public health, the patient is the community
Public health diagnoses the health of the community using public health sciences
Treatment of the community involves new policies and interventions
Goal of medicine is cure; goal of public health is prevention of disease and disability
Public Health: Science and Politics
Science is how we understand threats to health, determine what interventions might work, and evaluate whether the interventions worked
Politics is how we as a society make decisions about what policies to implement
Public Health Disciplines
Epidemiology
Statistics
Biomedical Sciences
Environmental Health Science
Social and Behavioral Sciences
Health Policy and Management
Epidemiology
The basic science of public health
The study of epidemics
Aims to control spread of infectious diseases
Seeks causes of chronic disease and ways to limit harmful exposures.
Statistics
Collection of data on the population
These numbers are diagnostic tools for the health of the community
The science of statistics is used to calculate risks and benefits
Biomedical Sciences
Infectious diseases – pathogens
Chronic diseases
Genetics
Environmental Health Science
Health effects of environmental exposures
Air quality
Water quality
Solid and hazardous wastes
Safe food and drugs
Global environmental change
Social and Behavioral Sciences
Behavior is now the leading factor in affecting people’s health
Theories of health behavior: social environment affects people’s behavior
Major health threats: tobacco, poor diet and physical inactivity, injuries
Maternal and child health – a social issue
Health Policy and Management
Role of medical care in public health
Cost of medical care in U.S. is out of control
U.S. has a high percentage of population without health insurance – these people often lack access to medical care
Quality of medical care can be measured, and is often questionable
Public Health: Prevention and Intervention
Primary prevention
Secondary prevention
Tertiary prevention
Public Health Approach
Define the health problem
Identify risk factors associated with the problem
Develop and test community-level interventions to control or prevent the cause of the problem
Implement interventions to improve the health of the population.
Monitor interventions to assess their effectiveness.
Key Findings
Most people are concerned about their health—very concerned (31%) or somewhat concerned (31%)
Key Findings
Americans do not see a single most important cause of individuals’ health problems.

ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.drhasanrajab
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.
These lecture slides, by Dr Sidra Arshad, offer a quick overview of the physiological basis of a normal electrocardiogram.
Learning objectives:
1. Define an electrocardiogram (ECG) and electrocardiography
2. Describe how dipoles generated by the heart produce the waveforms of the ECG
3. Describe the components of a normal electrocardiogram of a typical bipolar lead (limb II)
4. Differentiate between intervals and segments
5. Enlist some common indications for obtaining an ECG
6. Describe the flow of current around the heart during the cardiac cycle
7. Discuss the placement and polarity of the leads of electrocardiograph
8. Describe the normal electrocardiograms recorded from the limb leads and explain the physiological basis of the different records that are obtained
9. Define mean electrical vector (axis) of the heart and give the normal range
10. Define the mean QRS vector
11. Describe the axes of leads (hexagonal reference system)
12. Comprehend the vectorial analysis of the normal ECG
13. Determine the mean electrical axis of the ventricular QRS and appreciate the mean axis deviation
14. Explain the concepts of current of injury, J point, and their significance

2. CAROL M. WHITE FEDERAL GRANT
OR THE P.E.P.
(PHYSICAL EDUCATION FOR PROGRESS)
GRANT
To increase physical activity before, during and
after school
To improve nutrition education
To provide professional development for physical
educators
3. Why would the federal government grant almost
one million dollars ($$$) to Traverse City, Michigan??
4. Michigan is the second fattest state in the nation
Michigan children show elevated levels of high blood
pressure, cholesterol, Type II diabetes
Traverse City Area Schools showed 40% of K-6
students to be obese or at risk of being obese,
according to BMI
40% of students randomly selected for cardio scores
K-12 were below grade level
5. For the first time in the history of the USA, our children’s
life expectancy is lower than their ours….and…
Of children born in the year 2000 or after, 1 out of 3 will
be diabetic; one out of two African-Americans will be
diabetic
8. Through the grant, we have the opportunity to:
Provide additional opportunities for physical activities
before, during and after the school day (“Lunch Bunch” at
the elem level, NAP at the secondary, intramurals)
The ability to open facilities on Saturdays and offer
programming to both students and families
Equipment (climbing walls, heart rate monitors)
Professional development for PE staff
Partner with groups within the community who have
a common vision: Let’s Get Moving; YMCA; Great Lakes Children’s
Museum; Michigan Land Use Institute; Munson Hospital
9. Ultimately, this is not about TCAPS or Munson or
Rotary or the Chamber. This is about all of us, coming together,
to leave a legacy for our children of healthy lifestyle.
We owe them that.

28. Health Risks Associated with Obesity
• Premature death
• Type 2 diabetes
• Heart disease
• Stroke
• Gallbladder disease
• Osteoarthritis
• Sleep apnea
• Asthma
• Breathing problems
• High cholesterol
• Surgical risk
• Cancer (endometrial, colon, kidney,
gallbladder, post-menopausal breast cancer)
29. Consider This
•Health care costs are currently astoundingly
high.
•Imagine the economic reality when our
overweight, inactive adolescents reach the
workplace.
30. We need to be in this together…
The whole community
Every Step Counts
Let’s Get Moving
Munson, TCAPS, Rotary, Chamber
Families
39. What has been done?
• Through ESC grant programming, physical
activity has been increased at all levels
through NAP, Lunch Bunch, extended day
programming, intramurals, special events
• K-6 BMI (Body Mass Index) has decreased,
an almost unheard of phenomena!!
• Cardiorespiratory fitness testing has
improved at almost every grade level
40. •NAP at all secondary buildings has been successful, particularly at
those schools with closed campus. West Senior High has recorded
numbers of over 400 students per day participating in extreme 4
square, basketball, dancedance revolution, swing dance and ping
pong.
• Training has been done with extended day programs and summer
camp programs, providing increased activity and encouraging
creative play.
• Special events have included Rene Bibaub, world champion
jump roper, who has performed at many area elementaries,
high schools, Rotary and Chamber gatherings, as well as providing
Inservice training for TCAPS PE staff; Rob Sweetgall,
walking guru, who did a community walk, made appearances at
schools and promoted the use of pedometers and walking as an
affordable fitness activity; Friday Night Live appearances and
Promotion through jumprope marathon and ddr
41. Professional Development
• Physical educators have a captive audience.
Quality PE CAN and DOES make a
difference in fitness and lifestyle choices.
• What was your experience with PE?
• High school graduation requirements will
seriously impact PE. Will our district and
state DEMAND that health is a priority?
42. How About Nutrition?
• TCAPS has hired a part-time nutritionist who has
provided nutrition analysis of all TCAPS lunches
available on TCAPS website
• Many changes have been made within the lunch
program, including whole wheat wraps, breads,
pizza crusts, improved salad bars with mixed
greens and veggies
• Farm-to-School program has been implemented at
several sites
43. Nutrition
• TCAPS food service has created the first
online bid service in the state for local
farmers to try to purchase and use local,
fresh food in school cafeterias
• Vending machines have been stocked with
water and flavored waters, reducing the
opportunities for purchasing soda
44. Stuffee Program
• In partnership with the Great Lakes
Children Museum, ESC purchased literacy
bags and offered this program to every first
grade class in the TCAPS district
• Program teaches about internal organs,
healthy food choices, simple recipes for
families to use and asks child to write about
their experience with Stuffee
45. How to Sustain ESC?
• The grant will end as
of September 30
• What can this
community do to
sustain the good of the
grant?
• Do we value our
health and that of our
children enough to
figure this out?
46. If you don’t take care of your body, where will you live?
Once you lose your health, nothing else matters.
47. Here is the challenge!
• Our children are dying from obesity, lack of
activity, lack of creative play!
• Our state needs to wake up and do something for
the children!
• The Traverse City community MUST step up and
provide a model community in regards to healthy
lifestyle. We must DEMAND that health is a
priority in the schools and community. We have
the chance. We have the choice. We have the
responsibility.
