Rehabilitation/Physical Therapy.
Reduce Consequence

Any harmul deviation from organism’s or human’s norman or functional state.
Diseases or Health Problems
Types of Disease
- Communicable Disease
- Non-Communicable Disease
- Inury or Trauma
- Mental Health
- Spread from one person to another
- infectious
Communicable or Infectious Disease
- Lifestyle Disease
Non-Communicable Disease
- Emotional and Physical response to a terrible event.
- Physical Injury, fractures; emotional response to a terrible or traumatic event.
Trauma or Injury
- A state of well being where individuals realize their abilities to cope and contribute to the community.
- State of mental or cognitive health
Mental Health
Personal, Social, Economic, and environmental factors that influence health status.
Health Determinants
- policies at the local state, and federal level affect individual and population health
- Laws and Policies
Policy Making
- Reflect the________ and physical conditions of the environment in which people are born, live, learn, play, work and age.
- Living conditions of an individual
Social Factors
- More access to __________ to treat disease
- Both access to _________and the quality of _________ can impact health.
Health Services
healthy or unhealthy behavior
Individiual Behavior
Age and Sex
Biology and Genetics
Types of Health Determinants
- Policy Making
- Social Factors
- Health Services
- Individual Behavior
- Biology and Genetic
The extent of the area or subject matter that something deals with or to which it is relevant.
Scope of Prevention and Control
Immunization or vaccination, health education, chemoprophylaxis or chemopreventeion
Individual
Provision of safe water/proper excreta disposal, health projects and programs
Community-wide
Scope of Prevention and Control Objective:
Elimination and Eradication
Causes of disease no longer exist but one or more factors important in its occurence still persist.
Elimination
Cases of disease and the agent of disease have been elaminate; transmission of the causative agent have stopeed in irreversible manner.
Eradication
A course a disease takes in individuals from the start (pathological onset) until its eventual resolution.
Natural History of Disease
Under epidemiological triad
Disease Causation Model
States that an external agent can cause diseases in a susceptible host when there is a conducive environment.
Epidemiological Triad
Necessary Factor?
Agent
No transmission of disease
Non-Agent
Recognize the __________ (high risk group)
Focus of infection
Types of Prevention
- Knowledge of causation
- Dynamics of Transmission
- Identification of risk factors and risks group
- Availability of prophylactic or early detection and treatment
measures - An organization for applying these measures to appropriate
persons or groups. - Continuous evaluation of and development of procedures
applied.
Risk =
Hazard + Behavior
Availability of ________ or early detection and treatment measures
Prophylactic
An organization for applying these ____ to appropriate persons or groups.
Measures
Continuous _________ of and ________ of procedures applied.
Evaluation
Development
Stages of Natural History of Disease
- Stage of Susceptibility
- Stage of Subclinical Disease
- Stage of Clinical Disease
- Stage of Recovery or Death
Process begins with the appropriate exposure to or accumulation of factors sufficient for the disease process to begin in susceptible host.
Stage of Susceptibility
Individual becomes more prone to develop a disease brought about by various factors due to a higher rate of exposure from the pathogen
Stage of susceptibility
- Porportion of exposed individuals who are infected.
- In this stage, the patient is still asymptomtic
- Determining how many among the exposed should isolate or quarantine in order to limit the exposure of a disease.
Infectivity
- Proportion of infected individuals who develop clinically apparent disease
- There are clinical manisfestations or symptoms present.
Pathogenicity
