Q
  1. Population growth rate (%)
A
  • Average exponential rate
    of growth of the population over a given period. It is
    calculated as ln(Pt/P0)/t where t is the length of the

Q
  1. Crude birth rate (per 1000)
A

Number of births over
a given period divided by the person-years lived by the
population over that period. It is expressed as number of
births per 1000 population.

no of births /no of people in pop. in given area at given time x 1000

= birth rate per mil

ireland had a baby boom

uk has high birth rate

for long term predictions the fertility rate is prefered

Q
  1. Infant mortality rate (per 1000)
A

no of deaths of infants
dying between birth and exact age 1. in a given period/ 1000 live births in the same period

useful for indicationg quality of h.c services

factors influencing IMR

  • qual and access to h.c
  • age of mother = below 20 and 40-49 have higher IMR a
  • decreases after 2nd and increases after 3rd
  • larger birrth interval min 2 ideal is 4
  • living conditions

divded into

  • prenatal: till birth
  • post natal: after birth
    • neonatal 0-28
      • early0-7 late8-28
    • postneonatal 28 days-1yr
  • perinatal22weeks gestation-7 day

causes of neonatal mortality (high in bg)

  • low bw, premature birth, difficult labour
  • birth trauma, congenital anamolies, h.lytic disease

causes of postneonatal mortality

  • diarrhoeal diseases
  • acute respiratory infections
  • malnutrition
  • accidentss

Q
  1. Crude death rate (per 1000)
A
  • Number of deaths
    over a given period divided by the person-years lived by
    the population over that period. It is expressed as
    number of deaths per 1000.

no of deaths /no of people in pop. in given area at given time

x 1000

= death rate per mil

  • age related: infant mortality rate & fetal losses
  • cause relates: diseases, injuries, suicide, homicide
  • life expectancy ( sex and age related)

in europe highest is in Eastern europe. lowest is in turkey d/2 young population

factors influencing death rate

  1. standard of living
  2. quality and access to health care
  3. age & gender

Q
  1. Natural increase
A
  • The difference between the number
    of live born children and the number of deaths for a
    given area in the calendar year.

doesn’t take migration into account unlike total increase.

negative natural increase is compensated for by positive migration

Q

What is
prevalence?

A
17
Q

What is
incidence?

A

Prevalence of cases with temp. disability = number of
cases with temporary inability for work (number of only
primary list)/number of health provided.

-Prevalence of days with temp. disability= number of days
with temporary inability for work(sum of all hospital lists)/
number of health provided people * 10

18
Q
  1. What are the
    Indices relevant to
    the Dispensary
    Method?
A

Relative part of early discovered ill people = number of these
people/ number of all new ill people * 100

Relative part of regularly observed ill people =
number of these people / number of all dispensarisated
people *100

Relative part of regularly treated people = number of these
people / number of all dispensarisated people *100

Timeliness of dispensary method =
number of dispensarisated for the first time people / number
of discovered for the first time ill people *100

Relative part of people with improvement =
number of these people / number of all dispensarisated
people *100

Relative part of people without improvement =
number of these people/ number of all dispensarisated people
*100

Relative part of people with change for worse=
number of these people / Number of all dispensarisated
people *100

Relative part of people who died =
number of these people / Number of all dispensarisated
people *100

Medium temporary incapacity for work =
General number of sick leave days / Number of all
dispensarisated people *100

19
Q

Indices measuring
hospital activities?

A

Quantitative indicators – they describe how the hospital
beds are utilized.

Qualitative indicators – such as hospital case-fatality rate,
postoperative complications, etc.

Data necessary to calculate statistical indicators:

  1. Total number of beds
  2. Total number of patients passed through the facility = it is calculated as sum of patients admitted and discharged divided by 2, at particular clinic from other clinics also are taken into account.
  3. Total number of patient days.

INDICES

  • ​​ Average length of stay is the total number of patient days per year counting the day of admission but not the day of discharge, / by the total number of patients who passed through the facility.
  • Average bed occupancy rate is total number of patient days / by the number of beds.
  • Bed turnover is total number of patients who passed through the facility /by the total number of beds.
  • Case-fatality rate is calculated as the number of deaths in a hospital / by the number of admitted patients

multiplied by 100.

20
Q

fresh incidence

A

number of new found diseases / the population at risk x10n

21
Q

indicatros for quality of public health and prevention

A
  1. crude death rate( easist to use d/2 available resources)
  2. infant mortality rate
  3. life expectancy
22
Q

life expectancy

A
  • increased by 10 years for both men and women in the EU in the last 50 years
  • contributes to aging factor in EU along w/ decline in fertility
  • average life expectancy: has a gender gap
    • M: 77.9
    • F: 83.3
23
Q

Demographic balancing
equation

A

Starting population + (Births – Deaths) +
(Immigration – Emigration) =
= Starting population + (Natural increase) + (Net
migration) = Ending population

24
Q
