Q

Health Risk Assesment

A
  1. Typically a questionnaire or computer program to elicit and evaluate information concerning individuals.
  2. The assessed person received information about their life expectancy with recommended interventions that may have a positive impact on their health and longevity
  3. Risk factors are combined from various epidemiologic studies with mortality statistics
  4. This information is then applied toward the assessment of an individuals risk of mortality
  5. •The individuals’ information is compared to one with the lowest possible risk factors to encourage positive behavior change.
17
Q

What is the process of Health Risk Assesment?

A
  1. The top leading causes of death for an individuals age-sex-race group of which The 10 year expected risk of mortality for each leading cause of death is calculated.
  2. This is then summed by computer algorithm to determine an overall 10 year expected risk of mortality, which is then compared to an overall risk for the general population for the individuals age-sex-group – Risk Age
18
Q

What is the typical data collected for a risk assesment?

A
  • Height
  • Weight
  • Blood Pressure
  • Cholesterol
  • Past Medical History
  • Family History
19
Q

What are the Critiques of the HRA?

A
  • Lack of information of the individuals entering the data
  • Validating the predictions

Q

What are the strengths of the HRA?

22
Q

40 year old man with a risk age of 35 years means?

A

?

23
Q

A

Increase risk of dying

24
Q

If the risk age is less than the chronilogical age, what does that mean?

A

Lower risk of dying than someone else the same chronological age

25
Q

TRANSTHEORTICAL MODEL –STAGES OF CHANGE

A
  1. Pre-contemplation: no intention on changing behavior

Health Belief Model

A
  1. THE DESIRE TO AVOID ILLNESS, OR CONVERSELY GET WELL IF ALREADY ILL; AND,
  2. THE BELIEF THAT A SPECIFIC HEALTH ACTION WILL PREVENT, OR CURE, ILLNESS. ULTIMATELY, AN INDIVIDUAL’S COURSE OF ACTION OFTEN DEPENDS ON THE PERSON’S PERCEPTIONS OF THE BENEFITS AND BARRIERS RELATED TO HEALTH BEHAVIOR.

The HBM is more descriptive than explanatory, and does not suggest a strategy for changing health-related actions.

For the most effective use of the model it should be integrated with other models that account for the environmental context and suggest strategies for change.

33
Q

What should be included in a successful Health Risk assessment counseling session?

A

provider introduction and orientation to the session

  • identify risk (HRA and patient comments)
  • identify patient’s readiness to change
  • identify patient’s goal(s)
  • identify patient’s incentives and barriers to changing now
  • design a detailed plan ahead
  • state any needed follow up or referrals
  • briefly summarize and close the session with patient agreement
