Study Notes

Health Components and Diseases

  • Holistic health includes physical, mental, emotional, social, spiritual, and environmental well-being.
  • Disease is defined as a condition that impairs normal functioning and is typically characterized by specific signs and symptoms.
  • An acute illness is a condition that arises suddenly and lasts for a short period, such as influenza.

Epidemiology and Prevention

  • Prevalence refers to the number of people with an illness relative to a specific population at a given time.
  • Tertiary prevention focuses on specific medical or surgical therapies in acute care settings to manage existing diseases.
  • Leading cause of injury to women is often domestic violence.

Health Promotion and Information Sources

  • The most effective way to combat health problems is through education and preventive measures.
  • Reliable sources of health-related information include government health websites and reputable medical organizations.
  • The leading cause of death in young children in America is unintentional injuries, such as drowning or car accidents.

Lifestyle and Risk Factors

  • Lifestyle factors that can be controlled include diet, exercise, and smoking.
  • A non-preventable risk factor might be a genetic predisposition to a medical condition.
  • Adults should engage in at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity per week.

Nutrition and Health Conditions

  • Major components of a healthy diet include fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins.
  • Smoking can cause or aggravate conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and lung cancer.
  • Benign tumors are characterized by slow growth and non-invasive behavior, while malignant tumors are aggressive and can metastasize.

Health Definitions and Models

  • According to the World Health Organization (WHO), health is defined as a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, not merely the absence of disease.
  • Morbidity refers to the incidence of illness, while mortality pertains to the incidence of death.
  • The wellness-illness continuum emphasizes the dynamic relationship between wellness and illness, similar to Maslow's hierarchy of needs, which prioritizes basic health needs before self-actualization.

Health Risks and Concerns Across Age Groups

  • Using cocaine or crack during pregnancy can lead to low birth weight and developmental delays.
  • Common health concerns for mature adults (ages 40-65) include cardiovascular disease and diabetes.
  • A major cause of death in older adults (≥65 years) is heart disease.

Disease Classifications

  • Organic diseases are caused by identifiable biological factors, while functional diseases lack identifiable physical causes.
  • Deficiency diseases are the result of a lack of essential nutrients in the diet.

Matching Learning Objectives and Definitions

  • Matching exercises may include identifying terms and their definitions, categories of health deviations, and corresponding health concepts.
  • Assessing health risks often involves linking lifestyle choices to potential health conditions and their consequences.
