1. Physical Activity Trends ä Healthy People 2010 goal is to increase daily physical activity by 30% in adults. ä As of now 60% of the population is not active enough ä 23- 29% not active during leisure time ä Women report less physical activity during leisure time compared to men ä 50% of youth are not vigorously active ä http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/ss 5104a1.htm http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/ss 5104a1.htm http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/ss 5104a1.htm

2. Physical Activity Levels of Adolescents and Young Adults, by Age and Gender

3. Adult Physical Activity

4. Mississippi Health Facts ä Ranked 49 th in Health this year when compared to other states ä We have the highest infant mortality among states – 10.5d eaths/1000 live births highest in the country ä 27% above the average state for heart disease ä Highest Heart Disease Rate 352.5 deaths per 100,000 population ä Ranked 45 th in all combined risk factors ä Prevalence of smoking increased from 23.5% tp 25.3% ä Infectious disease has increased from 27.3 o 35.2 cases per 100,000 population

5. Diseases associated with Lack of Physical activity

6. Hypokinetic Disease ä coronary heart disease ä hypertension ä hypercholesterolemia ä cancer ä obesity ä musculoskeletal disorders

7. Recommendation for Physical Activity ä Every U. S. adult should accumulate 30 minutes or more of moderate-intensity physical activity on most, preferably all, days of the week

8. Cardiovascular Disease ä CVD responsible for more than 42% of all deaths ä 1/6th are under age 65 ä one out of every four Americans have some form of CVD

9. Unalterable Risk Factors ä Age ä Gender ä Race ä Heredity

10. Alterable Risk Factors ä Obesity ä Diabetes Mellitus ä High Fat Diet ä Type-A Personality ä Physical Inactivity ä Cholesterol Level ä Low Levels of Cardiorespiratory Fitness ä High Blood Pressure

11. Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) ä CHD accounts for more deaths annually than any other disease. ä Higher in Blacks than in Whites, Hispanics has a lower prevelance than Whites. ä Caused by a lack of blood supply to the heart muscle resulting from atherosclerosis.

12. Atherosclerosis ä A progressive, degenerative disorder. ä result of a build up of fatty deposits and plaque in the intima of the coronary artery ä restricts blood flow to the heart producing angina ä can result in myocardial infarction ä occlusion of the coronary arteries by 80% or more

13. Hypertension ä Most common form of CVD ä A persistent elevation of blood Pressure ä Normal <140 systolic / <90 diastolic ä Blacks and Hispanics have a greater prevelance ä up to age 55 men have greater prevelance

14. Hypercholesterolemia

15. Smoking ä Increases heart rate and blood pressure ä Inhibits naturally occurring anticoagulants ä May cause irregular heart beats or arrythmias ä Increases risk of developing atherosclerosis

16. Diabetes Mellitus ä 90 - 95% of individuals with Diabetes have type II or non-insulin dependent diabetes ä Usually the result of overeating and underexercising ä Physical activity may reduce the risk of NIDDM; and attenuate its affects

17. Negative consequences of Obesity ä Increase Risk for: ä CHD ä Hypertension ä Stroke ä NIDDM ä High Cholesterol ä Other Negative Effects: ä several types of cancer ä osteoarthritis ä degenerative joint disease ä menstrual irregularities ä pyscholgical burdens

18. Risk Classification ä Health Evaluation ä detects presence of disease ä assesses the initial disease risk classification
