22. Health The United Nations' World Health Organization defines health asWorld Health Organization "a state of complete physical, mental and social well- being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity."

23. What is Public health? In 1920, C.E.A. Winslow defined public health asC.E.A. Winslow "the science and art of preventing disease, prolonging life and promoting health through the organized efforts and informed choices of society, organizations, public and private, communities and individuals."

24. The history of public health Public health is an old concept, dating back to when people first began living in communities. Through the ages, governments have shown varying degrees of concern for the public health.

25. The ancients Greeks, and the Romans after them, tried to ensure the health of their citizens by providing a supply of clean water (via aqueducts and pipelines), managing the disposal of waste working to control disease by hiring public physicians to treat the sick.

26. During the late 1800s European governments began turning their attention to matters of public health in an effort to control the spread of disease. (Because Epidemics of leprosy, the plague, cholera, and yellow fever).

27. In the United States, the public health became an official concern when in 1866 a cholera epidemic struck the nation-for the eighteenth consecutive year

28. What is Public health? "the science and art of preventing disease, prolonging life and promoting health through the organized efforts and informed choices of society, organizations, public and private, communities and individuals."

29. The 'science' is concerned with making a diagnosis of a population's health problems, establishing their cause, and determining effective interventions. The 'art' is to address these problems creatively.

30. This definition underscores the broad scope of public health and the fact that public health is the result of society’s efforts as a whole, rather than that of single individuals.

31. In 2003, Detels defined the goal of public health as: The biologic, physical, and mental well-being of all members of society regardless of gender, wealth, ethnicity, sexual orientation, country, or political views. (This definition or goal emphasizes equity and the range of public health interests as encompassing not just the physical and biologic, but also the mental well-being of society.)

32. Both WHO and Detels’ goals depict public health as being concerned with more than merely the elimination of disease. To achieve the WHO goal of ‘health for all’, it is essential to bring many diverse disciplines to obtain the optimal health （ physical, biologic, and social sciences ）. The field of public health has adapted and applied these disciplines for the elimination and control of disease, and the promotion of health.

58. Contemporary health issues The 20th century witnessed the transition of major disease burdens （ defined by death ） from infectious and/or communicable diseases to chronic diseases (Table 1.1.2). In 1900, the leading cause of death in the United States and other developed countries was reported to be pneumonia and influenza. By the end of the century, diseases of the heart were the leading cause of death, and pneumonia and influenza dropped to the seventh place, primarily affecting the elderly.

69. Public health interventions One important task of public health professionals is to raise the level of anxiety of the public about public health problems to the level at which they will be willing to take an appropriate action.

70. Public health interventions can be divided into four categories:  biologic/environmental  social/behavioral  political  structural  The public health professional must use strategies in all categories to achieve the maximum health of the public.

71. biologic / environmental interventions The strategies:  improved standard of living, including provision of clean water and safe disposal of wastes.  The most cost-effective biologic intervention strategy is immunization  Eliminate of vectors of disease: DDT

72. Social/Behavior interventions Most public health interventions depend ultimately on behaviour ( personal or community behavior). At the personal or individual level, promotion of good health habits and avoidance of smoking, excess alcohol use, and other dependency disorders are important interventions that have a major impact on health.

73. Political interventions Public health is politics. Any process that involves obtaining the support of the public will involve politics and differing points of view. For example, the campaign to stop smoking

74. Structural interventions The end result of the political process is the passage of laws and regulations. This action, if implemented, can have a very significant impact on the improvement of the health of the public. For example, the law reducing the maximum speed in California from 65 to 55 miles per hour had a significant impact on lowering the automobile fatality rate

75. Impact of public health The dramatic achievements of public health in the 20 th century have improved our quality of life: an increase in life expectancy. world wide reduction in infant and child mortality elimination or reduction of many communicable disease.

76. As life expectancy increases in many developing countries, more people are developing those chronic diseases which have been a major burden in developed countries for many decades. Unlike developed countries, however, these countries still carry the burden of infectious diseases which have been greatly reduced in developed countries.

77. Because of the rapid advances in travel and communications, the developed world is threatened in new ways and thus cannot afford to ignore the problems of the developing world. Today, public health leaders must strengthen their roles as advocates for improved population-based health in an international, global community.

78. We have made tremendous strides to improve the health of the public, but the challenge to do better remains The future of public health

83. What is preventive medicine? The branch of medicine that is concerned with the prevention of disease and methods for increasing the power of the patient and community to resist disease and prolong life.

93. Preventive medicine is a medical discipline which focuses on preventing diseases and promoting a general state of health and well being. In both Europe and the United States, it is considered to be a board specialty, meaning that physicians can focus on preventive medicine while they get their medical degree, and use the skills they learn in school to reduce the outbreak of disease epidemics, improve public health, and increase the general quality of life for individuals all over the world.

94. Healthcare: health departments, academic institutions, state and national government, international or global institutions including the WHO, UN agencies or government agencies like the CDC or NASA, organized medical care programs in industry, voluntary health agencies, and the military. Preventive medicine

95. The history of preventive medicine Dating back for centuries to the time (Romes) when people first realized that unclean water made them sick, and that living conditions needed to be more hygienic to prevent illness.

96. Twentieth century, when numerous governments founded disease prevention centers such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the United States. These scientific establishments began to set firm guidelines designed to minimize the transmission of disease, improve hygiene, and enable rapid responses to major outbreaks transmission

97. In addition to medicine and science, preventive medicine also looks at economic and social issues, as some populations are clearly more at risk of contracting dangerous diseases than others.

98. Many sociologists, psychologists, and economists work in the field of preventive medicine to assist people of low income, education, and social status all over the world. Organizations which promote preventive medicine work closely with these individuals in the hopes that all people on earth can enjoy healthy, disease free lives.

99. Training: Generally requires 2 years in residency after a clinical internship or transitional year. Training includes earning a Master of Public Health (MPH) degree which is usually done in one of the two years.

100. There are three specialty areas within preventive medicine:  General Preventive Medicine & Public Health  Occupational and Environmental Medicine  Aerospace Medicine

101. Core courses: biostatistics epidemiology management administration clinical preventive medicine occupational or environmental health.

102. Specific career paths: managed care public health practice occupational medicine environmental medicine aerospace medicine clinical medicine informatics policy development academic medicine consulting international medicine and research.
