Welcome to Health Bellringer What do yo think of when you hear the word “health”? Do you think you lead a healthy lifestyle? Why or why not?

Your view point or your perspective towards a particular thing completely changes in flash of a time. That’s Paradigm shift. Covey has the best example of a paradigm shift: he was traveling in a subway, a man gets in with his two sons, the sons are running all over the place bothering the people, this continues, so he finally gets irritated enough to ask the father why he doesn't do something to control his kids. The father replies, "We just got back from the hospital where their mother died. I don't know how to handle it and I guess they don't either." Suddenly you see the everything differently. That is the power of a paradigm shift. They are the same kids yelling and screaming in the subway, but you look at them and understand them in a different way. The Subway Story

After a while she looks on the bench at the gourmet cookies and decides to go ahead and have some. She opens the box and gets out a cookie. The man next to her stares at her when she does this, then afterwards smiles and reaches into the box of cookies to take a cookie! She is surprised and does not know how to respond. She puzzles over this strange event as she eats her cookie. A few moments later the man reaches into the box and takes a second cookie. She looks at the man with a shocked expression and pulls the box a little closer to her and takes a second cookie of her own. The man just smiles broadly at her.

After five minutes the man reaches into the box taking a third cookie then lifts the box offering her the last one with a smile. She is amazed by his boldness but does not want to cause a scene. She scowls at him as the flight she is waiting for is called to board. She gets on her flight and is glad to see that the man was not waiting to board the same flight. She finds a seat and shuffles through her bag to get her phone. She can not wait to tell her sister about this crazy man. As she opens her bag she is surprised to find her box of cookies unopened!

This story illustrates a paradigm shift. A paradigm shift is a new way of looking at a situation and/or problem that is completely different from the way you viewed it in the past. How are we experiencing a major paradigm shift in health today?
6
When infectious diseases were the leading causes of death, health care was more of a mechanistic model. 2. Mechanistic means that you basically live your life until something breaks down and then go see a doctor and get it fixed. (video/51 sec.)
7
Now that the leading causes of death are lifestyle diseases, a preventative model is more critical. 2. Refers to measures taken to prevent diseases/injuries rather than curing them or treating symptoms

3. In the 1800s and early 1900s infectious (communicable) diseases such as influenza, tuberculosis, and diphtheria were the leading causes of death. In the 20 th century these have been replaced with the chronic (lifestyle) diseases; accidents, suicide, heart disease, cancer (malignant neoplasms), and stroke. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jbkSRLYSojohttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jbkSRLYSojo Life Expectancy over 200 yrs. in 200 countries/ 5 min.

4. What do you think is the leading cause of death among teenagers? Soooooo…

In 2009, about 3,000 teens in the United States aged 15– 19 were killed and more than 350,000 were treated in emergency departments for injuries suffered in motor- vehicle crashes. 1,2 Young people ages 15-24 represent only 14% of the U.S. population. However, they account for 30% ($19 billion) of the total costs of motor vehicle injuries among males and 28% ($7 billion) of the total costs of motor vehicle injuries among females. 3 a.

Although other teens are responsible for many of the homicides of teens below age 18, two-thirds of the murderers are eighteen or older. 4 Gang involvement has been associated with many teen murders; in 2002, nearly three-quarters of homicides of teens were attributed to gang violence. 5 Although school-related homicides receive substantial attention, in the 2006-07 school year they accounted for less than two percent of all child homicides. 6 b. Homicide

In 2006, 1,771 children and teens between the ages of 10 and 19 committed suicide in the U.S. Teenage boys were four times as likely as teenage girls to die by suicide and they were also more likely to use guns and suffocation to kill themselves. Girls were more likely than boys to use pills. c. Suicide

Malignant neoplasm implies a lesion that can invade and destroy the adjacent tissues and spread to the distant sites(Metastasize) and cause death, Malignant tumor are also called CANCER d. Malignant Neoplasms (cancer)

e. Heart Disease Most of the risk factors that affect children can be controlled early in life, lowering the risk of heart disease later in life. Other risk factors are usually passed down through family members (they are hereditary) or they are the result of another illness or disease. These risk factors usually can be controlled. Congenital heart disease (heart defects you are born with) cannot be changed, but better tests and treatments are now available for children with these types of heart problems.Congenital heart disease
