Health Re-Cap

By the end of this lesson you will have:

Re-capped what you have learnt in the health topic so

far• Worked in groups to

identify areas which you aren’t too confident with

• Be sure of areas that you want to focus on in revision

Word Match – Global Patterns of Health

• In groups of 3, match as many of the words on your A3 sheet together as possible and write the link on the lines

• Which group can get the most matches?

Global Distribution• Mortality: death rates • Morbidity: illness• Attack rate: The ‘incidence’ of a disease in a given area • Case mortality rate: The amount of people with the disease who

then die from it• Crude death rates: Sub-Saharan Africa• Malaria: tropics/equator• Influenza: 500,000 deaths a year (disease of poverty)• Breast Cancer: 50,000 cases in the UK in 2014 (disease of

affluence)• Epidemiological Transition Model: 4 stages, 4th stage = longevity

‘Alzheimer's’.

AIDS

C.H.D

• Verbal Essay• ‘Discuss the impacts of one non-

communicable disease’

• Point• Explain• Evidence• Link

N.C.Ds• DALYS: 82 million – 60% are in newly developing countries Afghanistan

has 23mill pop and 33,000 deaths p/y, and 36/1,000 DALYs lost• Risk factors: smoking, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, lack of

exercise (obesity), alcohol• Costs: $24billion could be saved if Americans exercised more.

$177billion a year cost to USA, £6billion to UK through obesity, drugs companies up to $14billion globally

• Prevention: oily fish, Japan education on blood pressure, UK dietary information

• Health education: World Heart Day• Legislation: Change 4 life, 2,000,000 responses• Disease of Affluence

Food & Health

• In your groups of three, come up with 2 questions to ask the rest of the group based on your part of the topic. The group that get the most answers correct win.

• Famine• Ethiopian case study• Solutions to famine• Obesity• Causes of obesity• Health consequences

Questions D1• 1. What are the three causes of famine? Drought, population increase, price

inflation• 2. What is malnutrition? A condition resulting from dietary deficiency• 3. List some affects of the 2000 Ethiopian drought livestock died, food price

increase, mass migration• 4. What aid appeal was launched after the 1984 drought/famine? Band aid• 5. Is distributing food short or long term? Short term• 6. What are three long term solutions to famine? use of fertilisers, improve

transport, ease international trade• 7. What does the WHO class obesity as on the BMI scale? 30+• 8. How many people are OVERWEIGHT globally? 1.6billion• 9. How does a diet contribute towards obesity? Intake of energy dense foods which

are high in sugars and fats• 10. What are the factors which can be attributed to global obesity? Increasing

sedentary forms of work, changing modes in transportation, increased urbanisation• 11. How many people die from CVD each year? 17million• 12. By how many years are obese smoker’s lives reduced? 14

Questions – A1• 1. What are the three causes of famine? – Drought, arithmetic crop growth, price inflation• 2. How many people die each year from starvation – 30million• 3. In 2000 Ethiopian famine how many of the population were affected? – 43%• 4. What happens to food prices during famine? – they rise• 5. What are the BMI values to be considered overweight and obese set by WHO? – 25+,

30+• 6. What percentage of children in US are overweight? – 35%• 7. What is the fundamental cause of obesity? – an imbalance of energy consumed and

expelled• 8. What are the two reasons for decrease in activity? – Increased transport, sedentary

lifestyles• 9. Raised BMI for obesity and overweight is a risk factor for what chronic diseases? – C.H.D,

Type 2 diabetes, CVD, cancers• 10. How many people die of cardio-vascular diseases each year? – 17million• 11. How many calories are available for each person globally each day? – 2,700• 12. Define malnourishment – a lack of proper nutrients

Health Care Approaches• Think of a HIGH GRADE and unique case study to use for:

• EMERGENT – Newly Developing – no state intervention – South Africa – rural/urban divide – hierarchy – Mount Coke – Mission hospitals

• SOCIALISED – total state control – available to all – Cuba – 21medical schools – best healthcare in Caribbean

• INSURANCE – your health is insured and guaranteed – state involvement – France – WHO best health approach in world, ageing population is problematic

• PLURALISTIC – both private and state involvement – private market with some elements of state care – USA – Obamacare 2010 – some elements of access to all

• NHS – State involvement, GPS still act as solo entrepreneurs, run as businesses, UK - £90billion NHS, for example some ambulances ‘loaned’ from private companies

TNCs• 1. What is a Transnational Corporation• 2. What three main roles do T.N.Cs fulfil in the manufacturing

centre?• 3. How influential is Johnson & Johnson as a pharmaceutical

company?• 4. How is Prozac used as an example of branded pharmaceutical? • 5. What is an essential drug?• 6. Why is drug development related to economic development?• 7. Why is marketing so important for pharmaceutical companies and

their distribution?• 8. Why is it better to find the root cause of a problem rather than

treat the symptoms?• 9. How would finding the root cause of the problem affect

pharmaceutical companies?

Tobacco T.N.Cs

• In your groups, arrow all the information you can at the moment remember about Tobacco TNCs

• Open your booklets and add to them• Find a newspaper article on your mobile

phones which is a contemporary example of tobacco corporations in newly developing countries
