NR704 Concepts in Population Health Outcomes

Week 1 Discussion

DQ1 DNP Role in Population-Focused Interventions

How do population interventions differ from individually
focused interventions? Give an example of a holistic/biopsychosociospiritual
(BPSS) intervention focused on an individual and then revise the intervention
to focus on a similar population.

DQ2 Assessing Populations

Investigate the top four health issues for the population
in your state or region. Compare these issues to Healthy People 2020. Are the
issues in your area similar to or different from the national issues? If they
are not congruent, what is your supposition regarding the difference. NOTE: One
of these health issues will serve as the basis for your Evidence-Based Health
Promotion Project.

Week 2 Discussion

DQ1 Identifying and Defining Population Outcomes

The National Database of Nursing Quality Indicators
(NDNQI) has identified nurse-sensitive indicators from a variety of settings,
including community-based setting. Identify two of these community-based
indicators and determine appropriate outcomes

DQ2 Models and Frameworks for Studying the Vulnerability

Identify two models for studying vulnerability and compare
and contrast differences when applied to the same population.

Week 3 Discussion

DQ1 Appropriate Application of Epidemiological Terms in
Determining Risk

Relative Risk of Breast Cancer: The National Cancer
Institute estimates that women have an average lifetime risk of 13.2% (one in
eight) of being diagnosed with breast cancer at some time in their lives. The
chance that a woman will never develop breast cancer is 86.8% (seven in eight).
Having one first-degree relative with breast cancer approximately doubles a
woman’s risk of developing cancer (compared to women having no first-degree
relatives with breast cancer). Having two first-degree relatives with breast
cancer increases risk fivefold. What is the probability or risk of developing
breast cancer in both of the scenarios? What is the relative risk? What is the
attributable risk? Discuss the importance (or lack of) of these terms in
describing a patient’s risk of breast cancer.

DQ2 Applying Epidemiological or Biostatistical Terminology

Which epidemiological or biostatistical terminology best
supports the magnitude of the problem for your proposed evidence-based
promotion class project.

effectiveness of the Head Start Program.

DQ2 Professional Accountability

nurse assume in all phases of the screening process from planning to follow-up?

Week 5 Discussion

DQ1 Frameworks for Assessing Population High-risk Factors

Choose a condition and/or disease. Utilize the Web of
Causation or the Epidemiological Triangle framework to describe the
contributing factors for host, agent, and environment, and so forth.

DQ2 Health Disparities and Health Equity

What are the differences between health disparities and
health equity? Give examples of the different approaches and philosophies when
utilizing these terms.

to a successful evidence-based interventional program.

Incidence (exposed)	Incidence of new cases of disease in persons who were exposed	number (exposed with disease)/total number of exposed
Incidence (unexposed)	Incidence of new cases of disease in persons who were not exposed	number (unexposed with disease)/total number of unexposed
Incidence of Disease	Measure of risk: Total number in a population with a disease divided by the total number of the population	Number with the disease/ total population number
Relative Risk	Risk of disease in one group versus another: Risk of developing a disease after exposure. If this number is 1, it means there is no risk. R(exposed)/Risk (unexposed)	(# exposed with disease[divided by]/total of all exposed) (# of unexposed with disease/[divided by]total of all unexposed)
Odds Ratio	A measure of exposure and disease outcome commonly used in case control studies	R(exposed)/ R (unexposed) 1- R(exposed) 1-R(unexposed)
Prevalence	The number of cases of a disease in a given time regardless of when it began (new and old cases)	(Persons with the disease/ Total population) X 1000
Attributable Risk	The difference in disease in those exposed and unexposed and is calculated from prospective data; directly attributed to exposure (if exposure is gone, disease would be gone)	R(exposed)-R(unexposed)/R(exposed) X 100
Crude Birth Rate	The number of live births per 1,000 people in the population	(# of births/estimated midyear population) X 1000
Crude Death Rate	The number of deaths per 1,000 people in the population	(# of deaths/estimated midyear population) X 1000
Fetal Death Rate	The number of fetal deaths (20 weeks or more gestation) per 1,000 live births	(# of fetal deaths/ # of live births + fetal deaths) X 1000
Annual Mortality Rate	Usually an expression of a specific disease or can be all causes per 1,000 people for a year	(# of deaths of all causes (or a specific disease)/midyear population) X 1000
Cause Specific Mortality Rate	Usually an expression of a specific disease per 1,000 people for a year	(# of deaths per a specific disease)/midyear population) X 1000
Case Fatality Rate	The parentage of individuals who have a specific disease and die within a specific time after diagnosis	(# of persons dying from a disease after diagnosis or set period/ # of persons with the disease) X 100

this course and write a reflective essay regarding the extent to which you feel
you are now prepared to:

1. “Analyze epidemiological, biostatistical,
environmental, and other appropriate scientific data related to individual,
aggregate, and population health.

2. Synthesize concepts, including psychosocial
dimensions and cultural diversity, related to clinical prevention and
population health in developing, implementing, and evaluating interventions to
address health promotion/disease prevention efforts, improve health
status/access patterns, and/or address gaps in care of individuals, aggregates,
or populations.

3. Evaluate care delivery models and/or strategies
using concepts related to community, environmental and occupational health, and
cultural and socioeconomic dimensions of health” (AACN, 2006, p. 16).
