nearly everyone knows smoking is harmful
3
Q
why do 20% of US adults smoke?
A
social acceptability ignorance advertising relaxation handling instruments (having something to do with their hands) oral gratification decreases tension, anxiety, anger weight control family/friends smoke stimulation and increased energy habit does not impair performance like other drugs harmful effects then not to occur until it has been used for years

A
nicotine is an addictive drug
not all smokers become addicted
nicotine addiction= very powerful
affects 80-90% of smokers
5
Q
how nicotine causes addiction
A
strong sensation of pleasure
lack of it causes discomfort (withdrawal)
stimulation craving long after withdrawal
symptoms disappear
6

major components of tobacco
A
nicotine
carbon monoxide
tar
7
Q
nicotine
A
*psychoactive drug can cause physical dependence stimulant and depressant properties takes 7.5 seconds to reach the brain *does what the smoker needs- a stimulant and depressant helps with simple repetitive tasks
8
Q
carbon monoxide
A
*most abundant gas in tobacco smoke
oxygen displacer- interfere with blood’s ability to carry oxygen
*smokers are “out of breath”
9

sticky, dark mixture
total of all solid material that is inhaled
irritate the respiratory tract (smokers cough)
10

lung diseases
After you stop your body can restore itself
14
Q
amount of deaths related to smoking in the US
A
1 in 5
15
Q
lung cancer
A
risk= proportional to smoking amount and duration

tobacco smoke, regardless of its source, that stays within a common source of air
21
Q
health concerns- passive/involuntary smoking
A
side stream smoke=85% of harmful substances
not filtered; more CO, CO2 and nicotine
some experts- smokers and nonsmokers exposed to same smoke
insufficient ventilation
eye irritation, nasal systems, headaches, cough, dislike oder
22
Q
smoking regulations

restructions/bans
u.s. airline industry
children= increased risk for bronchitis, pneumonia, coughing, ear infections

longterm abstinence= enhanced self-esteem and increased sense of control
25
what american president was asked in the early 1960's if smoking was safe
John F. Kennedy
26
anti-smoking announcements started airing in 1962. describe one example of an anti-smoking public service announcement.
2 children imitating their parents- realize smoking works the same way
27
Luther Terry, MD, Surgeon General, released the first government report on smoking and health in 1964. why was it such an important event?
it was the first time smoking was said to have a dramatic effect on health- hit tobacco companies hard- started center studies by Tobacco company
28
the "fairness doctrine" was the legal principle or catalyst used to get cigarette advertising off television. it means that if a station broadcasts one side of controversial issue of public importance, the station must provide some time, not necessarily equal time, of the opposing view. this happened in june 1967, did the committee spend a lot of time discussing the proposal?
no, decision made during a coffee break
29
what was the result of the "fairness doctrine" decision? what did television stations have to air
people had to airing-smoking ads they aired at night after everyone is asleep then they said every 3 tobacco ads an anti ad had to be aired in the same time period
30
the battle was between broadcasters and cigarette advertisers- who wanted cigarette ads to continue and who wanted them to stop?
broadcasters wanted to continue and cigarette advertisers wanted out because they were losing too much money, too hostile an environment- voluntarily withdraw
31
they 1969 cigarette act banned cigarette ads on january 2, 1971. congress left the tobacco industry alone until 1984 and they were asked to
strengthen warning labels- asked to ban all tobacco ads
32
stoping smoking requires
knowledge, recognition, familiarity, belief, certainty
33
quitting
most want to quit= 80% at on time
| cessation programs= 75% failure rate
34
cessation techniques and programs
past 90% of former smokers report they quit on there own
now combination of nicotine replacement and anti depressant meds
other factors increased cigarette taxes and social support- friends, family, co-workers, health car provider
-nicotine fading
-adverse techniques (things that make negative association)
-hypnosis and acupuncture
-relaxation training
-contigency contracting
-nicotine-containing products
-cessation aids (medications/candy/gum)
-church- based programs
-voluntary health agency programs
35
young adults (18-234) likely ways of dying
chances of dying now-relativly low
more likely to die of an injury
injuries=leading cause of death
injuries= 5th leading cause of death among all age groups
cause pain and suffering= victim and friends/family
36
geting real about preventing deaths
risk=behavior and environment
cannot eliminate all injuries
individuals and society= take steps to reduce # and seriousness of injury
37
death by the numbers
75% of deaths among americans 14-24 caused by unintentional injuries, homicides, and suicides
motor vehicle crashes kill more college age persons than all others combined
38
Why do accidents happen?
```
age/developmental phase
alcohol/other psychoactive drugs
stress
situational factors
thrill seeking
```
39
accident causes- age/developmental phase
leading cause of death among young people- more willing to take risks
fatal accident victims= often males in teens and 20s
some believe they are invulnerable
40
accident causes- alcohol/other psychoactive drugs
40% involved in an alcohol- related accident in lifetime
| alcohol=25% of fatal motor vehicle accidents and half of fatal motorcycle crashed
41
accident causes- stress
tense and anxious= we pay less attention
series of mishaps and near misses, then to your lower your stress level
distracted=hard to focus
42
accident causes- situational factors
```
road conditions, car maintenance
weather conditions
unlocked doors
lack of lighting
lower risk when possible
```
43
injury definition
caused by the transfer of energy to tissue; results form exposure for energy:
thermal, mechanical (i.g. a gun), electrical, chemical
44
intentional injuries
injuries that are purposely committed by a person
45
unintentional injuries
injuries that have occurred without anyone intending that had be done
(car crashes, residential injures, recreational injuries)
46
factors contributing to motor vehicle accidents
- distracted driving
- impaired driving
- speeding
- vehicle safety issues
- driver age
47
safety at home
poisoning, falls, fire
48
injuries
```
understandable, predictable, preventable, not an accident
course following unplanned events
preceded by an unsafe act or condition
accompanied by economic loss
interrupt efficient completion of tasks
```
49
3 Es of injury prevention
education, enforcement, engineering,
50
education (injury prevention)
involve the community, not just children or adults
empower
diversity (education and socioeconomic level)
51
enforcement (injury prevention)
advocate for stricter laws
| consistent enforcement of current laws
52
engineering (injury prevention)
new safety devices
| environment changes- i.e. "complete streets"`
53
injury prevention strategies
primary prevention
-prevent injury by removing the hazards or making it inaccessible so that the injury never occurs
secondary prevention
-reducing injury severity (i.e. using proper first aid)
tertiary prevention
-improving injury outcome after the injury occurs
54
active vs. passive prevention
active
-individuals must do something to prevent themselves
passive
-individual is automatically protected (airbags)
55
opposition to enhancing safety laws
government interfering w/individual rights
insignificant # of deaths or injuries
opposition to age criteria
difficulty or unwillingness to enforce laws
public education instead of passing laws
56
how old is old
```
nos data= elderly or seniors are 65+
"young-old" 55-75
"old-old" 75+
75-85- the elderly
85+ the very old or oldest old
```
57
gerontology
study of aging
58
chronological age
legal reasons
| set by arbitrary governmental/legal standards
59
functional age
determined by individual attributes
not consistent with chronological age
varies with environment
60
aging is
developmental
a gift of 20th century science and technology
without a universally accepted theory
61
biological aging
changes in physical appearance
| some physical capabilities diminish
62
pathological aging
result of disease
63
age related physiological changes- the skin
wrinkles
loss of fat. padding=temperature regulation
graying/loss of hair
64
age related physiological changes- skeleton and muscles
osteoporosis= loss of bone mass and height, increased risk of fractures
arthritis
decreased in muscle mass
65
age related physiological changes- the senses
impaired hearing/ vision
slower reaction time
no major declines in learning/ memory
66
age related physiological changes- cardiovascular system
decreased in heart muscle strength and cardiac output
| blood pressure increases with age
67
three types of age bias
age restrictiveness
ageism
age distortion
68
age restrictiveness
set limits on someone else's behavior based of your expectations
"act your age"
69
ageism
holding a negative attitude towards aging ant the age
| can appeal to any age group
70
age distortion
distorting your perceptions based on your exception
| atribute being forgetful to age
71
research on aging attitudes
by 5 or 6 children already have negative attitude regarding aging
age group with least negative attitudes towards aging-adolescents
72
demographics
1900-1 in 25 were 65+ (4%)
200- 1 in 8 were 65+ (12%)
2030- 1 in 5 will be 65+ (20 %)
73
aging population key issues
retirement costs
health care costs
politics
anti-aging gimmicks
74
seniors 65+ Years
use 29% of all money spent on medical care
| see a physician 8 times a year general population only sees them 5 times
75
Keys to living long and well
```
exercise regularly
hobbies
reach out to others
move-get off the couch
manage health conditions
mingle= engaged with family, friends, and community
```
76
thanatology
study of death and dying
77
mortality: past vs. present
increased life expectancy
past vs. present cause of death infection vs. chronic diseases
concentration of death among elderly
illusion of control over death
we fell it is unjust if you die before a certain age
78
how we learn about death
1st= physical/ concrete; older= abstract concepts
move through stages @ different rates
sequence rather than age is important
predictable stages
79
learning about death stage one (less than age 3)
had to study- limited verbal skills
| may experience feelings of grief, even if they can't express it
80
learning about death stage two (age 3-5)
time- view death as temporary
egocentrism- may disregard death
animism- don't understand full meaning of death (don't understand what is living and what isn't)
magical thinking= see death as reversible and avoidable
81
learning about death stage three (age 6-8)
major transition
beginning= death is final and inevitable
end=death is personal
lots of questions
82
learning about death stage four (age 9 and over)
age 9-10= adult like understanding of death
need help dealing with emotions
final, inevitable, personal
abstract ideals "lie on in our memories"
83
bereavement
state of having sustained a loss
84
grief
reaction to the loss
emotional feelings that people experience after the death of a friend/ relative
ex; preoccupation with the image of the deceased, guilt, disruption in daily schedule delayed grief is a typical reaction
85
mourning
culturally patterned manner by which grief is managed
86
stages of dying (cobbler-ross 1969)
emotional reaction of dying people
each person is unique= some may skip stages or revisit some stages
family and friends may go through similar stages
denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance
87
denial
disbelief
refuse to believe that they will die
temporary defence mechanism
88
anger
feel they have "been cheated"
"not fair"
patient can vent fears and frustrations and anxieties
may direct anger at relatives, friends and physicians
89
bargaining
strike bargains with God or a church leader
some have religious conversions
"buy time"
90
depression
grieving for their own death
withdraw from family and friends
periods of silence/crying
91
acceptance
```
fully realize they are going to die
sense of peace
void of feeling
calm-introspective
may prefer to be left alone or with family and friends
```
92
hospice care
terminally ill patients and family
return to the experience of death at home
primary goal= control of pain and death with dignity
93
what does death look like
```
decrease in food and fluid intake
changes in breathing patterns
skin cools
moaning
decreased orientation
restlessness
```
94
dealing with death
part of the human experience
life skill
each person is unique
95
informed consumers
```
makes good decisions
seeks trustworthy sources of info
des not accept everything as truth
selects products/services with care
speakers out end fraud is identified
```
96
keys to wise shopping
```
decide what you need, make a list
set and follow a budget
comparison shop
consider store brands and coupons
be aware of advertisement and impulse shopping
```
97
before buying, consider const and
```
why- needs vs. wants
what- quality vs. quantity
when- now vs. later
where- type of store, location
how- cash vs. credit
```
98
budgeting
plan- guidelines for use of money
list expenses and income
obligations and responsibilities, needs and wants, personal priorities
easier to save, use money for things you truly want, "rainy day" fund
get bank account and debit card= learn how to use and balance your account
plan ahead for future expenses (both long term and short tern)
avoid buying on credit
make your money work for you
99
income
ID income sources
ID regular and sporadic
calculate average income/ week or month
100
expenses
1. ID your expenses
2. essential and optional
3. consistent vs. variable
4. estimate average spent/week or month
101
compare income to expenses
determine whether to cut back, how much to save, if you need to earn more money, etc.
102
financial "orientation"
spenders, savers, sharers
we all have a primary, secondary, minor some may favor 2 of the 3 or have a good balance
spenders- live well, but may send more than they have
savers- have money for later, but do not allow themselves to live
shares- help others out, but may be taken advantage of
103
money
```
is finite/limited resources (for most of us)
avoid deprivation and waste
goals- short term and long term
health care costs= increasing
healthy=wealthy
```
104
why do we see health care providers
diagnosis, treatment, screening, consultation, prevention
105
informed self care
```
3 main skills
-observe and assess
-seek professional advice vs. self- treat
-safely self-treat
know your:
previous history
nature of symptoms
```
106
symptoms
our body letting us know something is wrong
107
benefits of self care
reduce health care costs
provide effective care for particular conditions
free physicians to spend time with others
increase interest in health related activities
108
knowing when to visit your physician
```
2 types of mistakes
-rush to doctor
-avoid seeking medical care
see one if symptoms are:
severe, unusual, persistant, recurrent
```
109
overall
informed consumer
| communication with health care professionals (physicians, pharmacist, nurse)
110
over the counter drug
considered relatively safe
temporary use
relieve minor symptoms
111
prescription drugs
physician supervision
more powerful
adverse side affects
dispensed by pharmacists
112
drug regulation laws
federal food, drug, and cosmetic act 1939- provide safety of medication
durham-humphrey amendment 1951-criteria for OTC and Rx drugs
-OTC
-must be non habit forming
-no harmful side effects when used according to directions
-did not require professional expertise to be used
kefaurer-harris amendment 1962- required both safety and effectiveness before a drug could be marketed; required specific info on drug labels
orphan drug law- financial incentives for drugs for rare diseases
Rx drug user free act 1992- decreases drug approval time= charge money for additional reviewers
dietary supplement health and education act 1994- regulated by FDA as a food; sold in US before 1994, assumed to be safe new (after 1994) must prove safety
-results- no pre marketing evidence of safety and effectiveness, more money spent on supplements, some say more regulation is needed
113
drug approval process- U.S
preclinical R and D, phase1, phase 2, phase 3, and phase 4
114
preclinical R and D
research and development (R and D)
exception= terminal illness/orphan drugs
ID compound= curative/preventative potential
conduct initial studies
submit investigational new drug (IND) application to FDA
115
phase 1
initial clinical stage
human experimental trials=determine effectiveness of compound
healthy counter subjects
116
phase 2
clinical pharmacological evolution stage
small # of people (100-300)
have conditions possibly treatable by compound
free from complicating conditions(only have that problem)
117
phase 3
```
extended clinical evaluation stage
-greatly expanded versions of phase 2
studies thousands of people
phase 1-3 may last 2-10 years
on completion of stage 3:
-submit new drug applicant (NDA) to FDA
reviews applicant in 180 days
approve or reject
```
118
phase 4
post marketing surveillance
clinicians report patient experiences with the drug to the FDA
FDA monitors clinical reports of long-term complicaitons
119
drug patents
17 years***
decrease approval process time= charge $ for additional reviewers
7 years development
10 years patent protected sales
120
drug names
brand names= registered name/trademark
generic name= biological/chemical name
consumer save $ with a generic drug
121
compliance
patient's willingness was ability to take medicament in the prescribed manner
122
intentional noncompliance
willful failure to follow physicians directions
123
unintentional noncompliance
patient discontinues or alters medication use
124
placebo effect
ability of inert materials to preform as if they were medically active
125
what percentage of ball state students have never used alcohol
11-20%; perceived use is that 2.4% of students are not using
126
why do people tend to think that more are using alcohol than actually are?
reputation of the college
| more prevalent- you see it at parties
127
average # of drinks BSU students report drinking
6-7 (females 4-5; males 8)
128
men vs. women
men naturally drink more
b/c of social expectations that men should drink more and maybe because females fear getting too drunk because they have to walk back
self-report- men could be more willing to admit how much they have drunk
majority say that they drink 8 or fewer
129
standard sizes of drinks
1.5 hard liquor
12 oz beer
6 oz wine
130
what students report happening when they drink
```
forgot where they were/what they did
did something that they regret
unprotected sex
physically injured self
injured others
```
131
ways to be responsible when drinking
alternate non alcoholic beverages with alcoholic ones
eat before and or during drinking. determine set # before hand, pace drinks to one or fewer an hour, use designated drivers
132
physical effects of alcohol
BAC- biphasic curve- optimal BAC betwween .05 and .06
figure out how many drinks per hour that means for you
there is an app to calculate your approximate BAC
***drinking more does not help you feel better, too much makes you feel worse
133
systems affected by drinking
digestive, cardio vascular, skeletal and muscular, immune, nervous, kidneys
134
effects of alcohol on the brain
cerebral cortex- poor judgement, lowered inhibitions, blunted senses
limbic system- memory loss and exaggerated emotions
cerebellum- coordination, reflexes
hypothalamus and pituitary gland- sexual desire and arousal (increased desire, but decreased performance ability)
medulla- automatic functions, increased drowsiness
135
long-term effects of drinking
liver damage, increased risk of cancer,
korsakoff's syndrome-
-thiamine deficiency, anterograde and retrograde amnesia, most likely to affect episodic memories, confabulation- invented memories taken as true in spot of memories that are lost, meager content in conversation, lack of insight, apathy, aren't aware of the symptoms
136
alcohol poisoning
vomit, lured speech, mental confusion, stupor, coma, shallow/ short breath, black out, pale, clammy bluish skin, seizers, does not respond to pinch or poke, hypothermia
137
what to do if someone has alcohol poisoning
roll on side (bacchus maneuver), try to wake up, continue to monitor, cover only with a sheet, do not give cold shower, do not give food or drink, call 911
don't forget about the life line law and good neighbor policy through Ball State
138
% crashes caused by drunk driving
31%
139
1 threat to children
school shootings
140
drug use according to Dr. turner
downward trend in last 30 years (can fluctuate with gas prices)
can die on an overdose
drugs attach to fat instead of water like alcohol, so it could be present in the brain where there is a lot of fatty tissue, but not show up in the blood
depressants don't allow your eyes to keep up with a finger
some drugs don't let you cross eyes
others don't let your eyes dilate right
141
why are drunks dangerous
lowers inhibition and increased risk taking
slow perception to reaction time
impairs ability to divide attention
alcohol allows you to be stupid
can't control both speed and lane control at once
you make a quarter million decisions on a trip to the store, but you can't do all this multitasking when drunk
142
adult reaction time
1 sec to 1.5 sec
143
alcohol use according to Dr. Turner
you get stuck at the age that you start drinking
96X less likely to have a drinking problem if you start drinking after 21
originally used as an antiseptic and a food
144
making alcohol
```
since 10,000 BC
fermentation
-unsure of first discovery
-yeast, sugar source
distillation
boille fermented beverage
throughout world
proof to percent
as yeast eats sugar, yeast wast is alcohol 12-14% naturally occurs
```
145
absorption of alcohol in the stomach
getting the ethanol out of the stomach and into the blood
-20% absorbed in stomach
chime in the stomach
-45-2h
80% absorbed past pylorus
get drunk faster on an empty stomach
when you drink past what your brain can handle, your pylorus shuts off and you puke
146
what is a drug
anything on controlled substance act
schedule 1- no medical use, high abuse (marijuana not considered to have a medical use)
schedule 2- medical use, but addictive
schedule 3
schedule 4- over the counter
schedule 5- you can get
*any substance which, when taken into the human body, can impair the ability of a person to properly operate a motor vehicle
drugs do not cause your body to do anything that it couldn't do on it's own, just enhanced those factors
147
12 step process for police testing someone suspected to be on drugs
```
breath test
interview of officer
preliminary exam, 1st pulse
eye examination
divided attention test (balance)
vital signs, second pulse
dark room exam (pupil sizes)
muscle tone, 3rd pulse
injection sites
suspect statements
opinion of evaluator
toxicology verification
*trying to rule out medical conditions, alcohol, the drugs
94-94% correct identification rate
```
148
depressants
drunken behavior and appearance, uncoordinated
149
stimulants
in constant movement, restless, talkative, euphoria, redness to nasal area, runny nose, body tremors
ex. cocaine, amphetamines
150
methamphetamine
extremely addictive
151
hallucinogens
confuse the senses
ex. LSD, MDMA, MDA
naturally occurring too
"seeing sounds, hearing colors"
152
dissociative anesthetics
delusions- think you are something that you're not
"super strength"
blake stare, drooling, naked, warm to touch
153
narcotic analgesics
```
codine, morphine
on the nod
droopy eyelids
depressed reflexes
dry mouth
low raspy speech
```
154
inhalants
aerosols
shutting off oxygen to brain
severe headaches
slurred speech, disorientation, confusion
155
4 gateway drugs
marijuana, tobacco, alcohol, inhalants
156
cannabis
marijuana marinol (medical marijuana)
interferes with short and long term memory
emotional addictions
different than alcohol
edibles are dangerous, because it takes so much longer to start feeling the effects so people eat more
marijuana is #2 cause of ER visits (#1 is cocaine)
very blood shot eyes
157
poly drug use
using drugs at the same time, use1 drug to increase effects of the other drug
158
cancer
disease group characterized by the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells
lage portion is preventable (like ones caused by tobacco use)
formed from stem cells that grow wrong
don't stop growing
159
metastasis
cells that travel to another region often form tumors are removed from the original tumor called this
160
damaged DNA
cancer develops when DNA is damaged
normal cels die or become repaired if DNA is damaged
cancer cells with damaged DNA
caused by inheritance, environment, or lifestyle choices
161
DNA repair genes
involved in fixing damaged DNA. cells with mutations in these genes tend to develop additional mutations in other genes. Together, these mutations may cause the cells to become cancerous
162
cancer classifications
cancers are classified in two ways: by the type of tissue in which the cancer originates (histological type) and by primary site, or the location in the body where the cancer first develops
163
carinoma
malignancy of epithelial origin o the internal or external lining of the body. most common type of cancer accounting for 80-90% of cases
164
Sarcoma
malignancy originating in supporting or connective tissue (bone, cartilage, tendons, muscle and fat.
165
Myeloma
malignancy originating in the plasma cells of the bone marrow
166
Leukemia
malignancy of the bone marrow.
167
Lymphoma
malignancy that develops in the glands or nodes of the lymphatic system.
168
Stage 0
Carcinoma in situ
169
Stage I, Stage II, and Stage III
Higher numbers indicate more extensive disease: Larger tumor size and/or spread of the cancer beyond the organ in which it first developed to nearby lymph nodes and/or tissues or organs adjacent to the location of the primary tumor
170
Stage IV
The cancer has spread to distant tissues or organs
171
treatment for cancer
```
Surgery
Chemotherapy
Hormone Therapy
Radiation Therapy
Targeted Therapy
Clinical Trials
```
172
surgery
only definitive way to know is to see an actual cell
173
chemotherapy
```
Chemotherapy is the use of medicines or drugs to treat a disease, such as cancer. Many times this treatment is just called chemo. Surgery and radiation therapy remove, kill, or damage cancer cells in a certain area, but chemo can work throughout the whole body. Chemo can kill cancer cells that have metastasized or spread to parts of the body far away from the primary (original) tumor.
Chemotherapy also affects normal cells of the bone marrow, gastrointestinal tract, hair follicles and some reproductive organ cells.
side effects:
Bone Marrow Suppression
Gastrointestinal Tract
Hair Follicles
Fertility
Mouth sores
#1 is fatigue
```
174
can cancer be prevented?
All cancers caused by tobacco use and heavy alcohol consumption could be prevented completely.
physical inactivity, and/or poor nutrition, and thus could also be prevented
Certain cancers are related to infectious agents
