Community Medicine - Last moment revisionsHealth
Health is state of complete physical and mental well being not merely an absence of disease or infirmity.
Determinants of health Heredity Environment Life-style Socioeconomic Health and family welfare Other factors like health related systems ( eg: food and agriculture, education, industry, social welfare, rural
development )
Indicators of health Characteristics
Valid Reliable Sensitive Specific
Indicators may be classified as 1. Mortality indicators
a) Crude death rate: The number of deaths per 1000 population per year in given community b) Expectation of life: Life expectancy at birth is the average number of years that will be lived by those
born alive into a population if the current-age specific mortality persists.c) Infant mortality rate: Ratio of deaths under 1 year of age in a given year to the total number of live
births in the same year.d) Child mortality rate: Number of deaths at ages 1-4 years in a given year per 1000 children in that age
group at the mid point of the year concerned. e) Under-5 proportionate mortality rate: Proportion of total deaths occurring in the under 5 age group. f) Maternal (puerperal) mortality rate:g) Disease specific mortality h) Proportional mortality rateMorbidity indicators
They are i) Incidence and prevalence
j) Notification rates k) Attendance rates at out patient departments, health centres, etc l) Admission readmission and discharge ratesm) Duration of stay in hospital n) Spells of sickness of absence from work or school
2. Disability rates a) Event type indicators
(i) Number of days of restricted activity (ii) Bed disability days (iii) Work loss days (or school loss days) with in a special period
b) Person type indicators (i) Limitation of mobility (ii) Limitation of activity
Sullivans index : This index (expectation of life free of disability) is computed by subtracting from the lifeexpectancy the probable duration of bed disability and inability to perform major activities.
3. Nutritional status indicators a) Anthropometric measurements of pre school childrenb) Heights (and some weights) of school children at school entry c) Prevalence of low birth weight (less than 2.5 kg)
4. Health care delivery indicators a) Doctor population ratio b) Doctor-nurse ratio c) Population-bed ratio

VECTOR BORNE DISEASE CONTROL PROGRAMME 1. National Anti-Malaria Programme
National Malaria Control Programme (NMCP) was launched in India in April 1953. it was in operationfor 5 years( 1953-58).
National Malaria Eradication Progamme (NMEP) launched in 1958. New approach to malaria control was approved by WHO in 1978, ie. Implementation of malaria control in
the context of the primary health care strategy. An Enhanced Malaria Control Project with world bank support launched on 30 th September 1997. In 1999, the government of India decided to drop the term National Malaria Eradication Progamme
and renamed it National anti - malaria programme
2. National Filaria Control Programme National Filaria Control Programme (NFCP) has been in operation since 1955.

(8) Electricity Burns
II. Diseases due to chemical agents: (1)Gases: C0 2 , CO, HCN, CS 2 , NH 3 , N 2 , H 2S, HCI, SO 2 - these cause gas poisoning. (2)Dusts (Pneumoconiosis) :
