Non-communicable Diseases And Interventions to minimize it
- 2. The study of the distribution and determinants of health-related states in specified populations, and the application of this study to control health problems
- 3. Distribution: occurrence of cases by time, place and person Eg: according to study of deaths in country X in 2008, 1034 cervical cancer deaths occurred among women between the ages of 45-54
- 4. Determinants: All the causes and risk factors for the occurrence of a disease, including physical, biological, social, cultural, and behavioral factors Eg: Smoking was a risk factor or determinant for the greater number of cancer deaths among women ages 45-54
- 5. Health related states: Diagnosis of specific disease or cause of death Eg: according to study of deaths in country X in 2008, 1034 cervical cancer deaths occurred among women between the ages of 45-54
- 6. Specified population: A measurable group, defined by location, time, demographics, and other characteristics Eg: women aged 45-54 living in a rural village in country X from 2001 through 2009
- 7. Application: analysis, conclusion, distribution, and timely use of epidemiologic information to protect the health of the population. Eg: As a result of the country X study, free cervical cancer screening programs were implemented. They targeted women living in remote areas in hopes of finding women with cervical cancer at an earlier stage of cancer in order to prevent death Application :
- 8. To measure frequency of disease To asses distribution of disease - who is getting disease? - where is disease occurring? - when is disease occuring? To form hypotheses about causes and preventive factors To identify determinants of disease Purpose of epidemiology
- 9. Approach/ Consideration Clinical Medicine Epidemiolgy Focus Individuals populations Main goal Diagnosis and treatment Prevention and control Questions What is wrong with this patient? What are the leading causes death or disability in this population? Risk factor? Treatment What treatment is appropriate? What can be done to reduce or prevent disease or risk factors? Who is involved? Physician, laboratorian, nurse, and others Epidemiologists, statisticians, and others from diverse disciplines Approaches in Medicine vs Epidemiology
- 10. Descriptive epidemiology - Studies the pattern of health events and their frequency in populations in terms of: place, person, time - Purpose: to identify problems for further study. To plan, provide and evaluate health services Analytic epidemiology - Studies the association between risk factors and disease - Purpose: to determine why disease rates are high in a particular group Approaches to epidemiology
- 11. Public health surveillance Investigation Data analysis Intervention Evaluation Communication Management and team work Function of Epidemiology
- 13. Not communicable, especially with reference to a disease that is NOT transmitted through contact with an infected or afflicted person (not infectious) • Non-communicable diseases (NCDs), also known as chronic diseases. • Long duration and generally slow progression. • Random genetic abnormalities, heredity, lifestyle or environment can cause non-communicable diseases, such as cancer, diabetes, asthma, hypertension and osteoporosis. • Autoimmune diseases, trauma, fractures, mental disorders, malnutrition, poisoning and hormonal conditions are in the category of non- communicable diseases.

- 30. Arthritis was the most common non-communicable disease (NCD), followed by HBP, diabetes, asthma and CHD. Older females were more likely than males to have arthritis and HBP, but males were more likely to have asthma. Diabetes and CHD were most prevalent among Indians, while arthritis and HBP were most prevalent among the Indigenous groups. Older people were more likely to report poor health if they suffered from NCD, especially CHD. Chinese that had HBP were more likely to report poor health compared to other ethnic groups with the same disease. Among those with arthritis, Indians were more likely to report poor health.
