Understanding Communicable Disease from a Population-Based Health Perspective
Objectives
Analyze the rise of chronic disease in developing countries
Analyze the resurgence of infectious disease in developing countries
Summarize the effects of chronic and infectious diseases on population-based health in the United States
Assignment Overview
In this written assignment, you will learn about chronic and communicable (infectious) disease rates in developing countries as compared to developed countries and the relationship to population-based nursing.
Deliverables
You are to develop a two-page (500-word) paper using APA format and current (2017-2022) peer-reviewed references.
Step 1
Review World Health Organization Noncommunicable Diseases (NCD) Country Profiles.
Locate the World Health Organization – Noncommunicable Diseases (NCD) Country Profiles on the World Health Organization website. Read the following data sets provided by the World Health Organization.
Indonesia (developing country)
Guatemala (developing country)
United States (developed country)
France (developed country)
Step 2
Review the data sets.
Each data set provides a profile of a country’s risk factors for, and incidence of, various chronic diseases. Information about the country’s ability to respond to chronic disease is outlined. Some information about communicable (infectious) disease rates is also presented. Note that the acronym NCD on the data set documents stands for noncommunicable diseases another term for chronic diseases.
Step 3
After the data has been reviewed summarize your findings.
Write a two- to three-page paper that:
Compares and contrasts the following aspects of each data set:
Percent of NCD deaths (see pie charts)
Percent of deaths attributed to communicable (infectious) disease and maternal, perinatal, and nutritional conditions (see pie charts)
The significance of trends for blood pressure, body mass index (BMI), blood glucose, and cholesterol levels
The capacity of the country to respond to NCDs
Summarize three key messages from your review of the data sets that relate to population-based nursing and:
The incidence of chronic disease in developing countries versus developed countries
The incidence of communicable disease in developing countries versus developed countries
The impact of chronic and communicable disease in developing countries as compared to developed countries
Step 4
