Three measures of dispersion or variation

range
Co-efficient of variation
Standard deviation

Perfectly

How far of the data in your sample is clustered around them

co efficient of variation

Perfectly

most important and widely used measure of study dispersion

Standard deviation

How well did you know this?

Perfectly

it is a collection of information from there is representative active units in the sample

Sampling

How well did you know this?

Not at all

Perfectly

it is the collection of all the information from all the individuals in a population
Units from population, let’s complete accurate and every 10 years

Census

How well did you know this?

Perfectly

It is used when population is small, homogenous and ready available

Simple, random sampling

How well did you know this?

Perfectly

it is used when population is large homogenous and scattered

Systemic sampling

Perfectly

what is the formula of systemic sampling?

K= total population /
sample size desire

Perfectly

It is used one population is large divide population in two separate groups known as strata. An example is drawn randomly from each stratum.

Stratified sampling

How well did you know this?

Perfectly

Grouping the population first, then surveying the entire population

Cluster sampling

nominal
Ordinal
Interval, or numeric

Single data

Bar diagram

Perfectly

A bar diagram without Doc or no space between the bars blocks different types of data Used to depict quantitive data of continuous type

Histogram

used to compare two or more frequency, distribution Point is marked over the midpoint of the class interval, and connected by straight lines

Frequency polygon

Commonly used to show percentage

pie diagram

Geographic distribution of frequencies

cartogram, or spot map

Popular method of presenting data to man in street

Pictogram

branch of medical science, which treats epidemic

parkin

Science of mass phenomena of infectious disease

Frost

Study of distribution and determinants of health related states in specified population in the application of the study to control health problems

John last

Four principles of epidemiology

exact observation Correct interpretation Rational explanation Scientific construction

it is a cluster of gases occurring during a brief time interval, and affecting a specific population may be on set of an epidemic

Outbreak

it is a word used to refer to a disease that is already presented in the population of a particular area When did you say it's permanently in the population of an area is referred to as Never ending

Endemic

this is that spreads in an area or country suddenly The occurrence of a deceased clearly in excess of normal expectation A temporary prevalence of a disease

Epidemic

Prevalent throughout an entire country continent or the whole world

Pandemic

Scattered incidence of a deceased

Sporadic

Endemic this is occurring in animals

endozootic

Epidemic disease occurring in

Epizootic

this is imported into the country

Exotic

Variables are manipulated at the time the study is conducted

Experimental epidemiology

Two. Basic measurements in epidemiology.

Measure of mortality Measure of morbidity

incidence of death Death in population

Measure of mortality

incidence and prevalence Incidence of you Il health

Measure of morbidity

The proportion of a population with a problem at a designated time

Prevalence

The rate of a new problem during a period of time Also known as communicative incidence New cases

incidence

viewed as the absence of disease

Biomedical

Views, hell is dynamic equilibrium between man and his environment

Ecological

Emphasis on the promotion and protection of health

Holistic

Four fundamental principles of public health

prevention Ethics Teamwork Cost efficiency

six. Main stages of dental health services.

Situation analysis Problem, identification, and formulation of objectives Formulation an analysis of alternative strategies Identification of special efforts Strategy selection Program formulation

Five tools of dental, public health

epidemiology Biostatistics Social sciences Principles of administration Preventive dentistry

it is the prevention of the emergence or development of a risk factor Not yet appeared Main intervention through individual and mass education Receiving special attention in the prevention of chronic diseases

Primordial prevention

action taken prior to the onset of the disease Intervention in the pre-pathogenesis phase Example health, education, plaque control program, diet counseling

primary prevention

action to talk to the progress of a disease in its incipient stages and prevents complication Early diagnosis or screening test an adequate treatment Example, scaling and curettage, simple, restorative treatment prophylaxis

Secondary prevention

disease process has advance Disability, limitation Example root canal pulpotomy extraction implants splinting

Tertiary prevention

Five public health promotion

build healthy public policy Create supportive environment Strengthen community action Re-orient health services Develop personal skill

He is the father of medicine, and first known epidemiologists

Hippocrates

Father of public health

chlora

father of epidemiology

Jon Snow

if a question refers to a Recents bus episode that occurred longer ago may also be reported prior in information by interviewer is known ahead

Telescopic bias

Jumping into conclusions based upon coincidences

Post hook bias of cohort studies

It is the first license dental school

from cost to affect into future, also known as prospective study, or longitudinal study or incident study Forward in time

Cohort study

backwards in time Backwards from effect to cause Also known as retrospective study

Case control study

It is the probability that an individual will develop a specific disease in a given. Period

Risk

Comparison between two numbers with the same unit

ratio

The first identified case of a disease in an outbreak or epidemic

Index case

Father of dental hygiene

dr. fones

First to use Esther as an anesthetic agent

William Morton

Develop the first fluoride varnish

Schmidt

Organization of member agents that have a system of social relationship

Society

A group of members living together, in such a way that the members have a basic conditions of a common life

Community

Group of people united for a specific purpose

Association

Data in its original form

Raw data

Limited study

Pilot study

Measure of dispersion

Range

3 7 10 and 13 years old

fluoride that you can see in toothpaste, or mouthwash us It is 2% topical application

Sodium fluoride

this used as a topical fluoride It has 8% in topical application

Stannous fluoride

it is a synonym as universe

Population

Used referred to a measure of occurrence of certain disease

rate
