Explanation of the types of epidemiological
studies
·
Uses of epidemiology
Answer. There are four most common
types of epidemiological studies:
1. Cohort Study
The "What will happen to me?" study
follows a group of healthy people with different levels of exposure and
assesses what happens to their health over time. It is a desirable design
because exposure precedes the health outcome — a condition necessary for causation
— and is less subject to bias because exposure is evaluated before the health
status is known. The cohort study is also expensive, time-consuming and the
most logistically difficult of all the studies. It is most
Q2. Describe the demographic profile

Indian economy states
characteristics of population constitutes the human resources of a country. The
population is vital from the point of economic growth and resources of the

ratio etc.

The density of population calculated as a
ratio of the number of persons per square kilometer of land area. Normally the

in India is 324. The density of Population was as low as 7.7 persons per square
kilometers in 1901.
In 2001 density of population further creased
to 324 people per square kilometer. India is one of the dense populated
countries in the world. The density of population determines the magnitude of
the burden that India is being called upon to carry and to determine the future
potential of

Q4. What is ergonomics? Discuss the
occupational related legislations in India.
Answer. Meaning of ergonomics: An applied science
concerned with designing and arranging things people use so that the people and
things interact most efficiently and safely —called also biotechnology, human
engineering, human factors. A science that deals with designing and arranging
things so that people can use them easily and safely.
Ergonomics is the science of refining the design of
products to optimize them for human use. Human characteristics, such as height,

hearing, sight, temperature preferences, and so on. Ergonomics is sometimes
known as human factors engineering.
Q5. Explain the different types of
health insurance policies in India.
Answer. Health insurance can be defined as insurance against the future
medical expenditure of a person. This means that when someone takes a health
insurance plan he or she expects a certain amount of medical expense to be
there in future and that individual is paying for that in the present in the
form of premium. The main aim of a health insurance plan is to make sure that
people have enough money to take care of their emergency medical requirements
when they get old.
However, a health insurance policy does not
always cover every possible health problem someone might encounter in the
future. There are certain terms and conditions agreed to by the insured (person
who is taking the plan), and the insurer (entity that is providing the plan)
and the entire procedure happens according to what has been agreed to in the
contract.
Q6. Discuss the impact of lifestyle
diseases on healthcare industry and economy.
Answer. Lifestyle diseases share risk factors similar to prolonged
exposure to three modifiable lifestyle behaviours -- smoking, unhealthy diet,
and physical inactivity -- and result in the development of chronic diseases,
specifically heart disease, stroke, diabetes, obesity, metabolic syndrome,
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and some types of cancer.
These illnesses used to be considered the
diseases of industrialized countries, so-called "Western diseases" or
"diseases of affluence"; however, internationally they are known as
non-communicable and chronic diseases, part of the degenerative diseases group.
Chronic disease can result in loss of independence, years of disability, or
death, and impose a considerable economic burden on health services.
