Uses of EpidemiologyUses of Epidemiology“To provide a clue to changes taking place over ti "time…"
“To identify subgroups in the population who are hi h i k f di "at high risk for disease."
“To determine the best or most appropriate types of primary and secondary prevention.' o Primary prevention prevents disease in the well

Why should we identify risk groupsWhy should we identify risk groups
o To identify risk groups and to identify the i t d ifi f t h t i tiassociated specific factors or characteristics
that put them in the risk group.
o Early identification of disease through screening program to prevent the burden of disease on the risk group and to be able to provide the best available intervention
