31
# Morbidity Rates
Measures the number of new cases developing during a period of time.
Incidence
32
# Morbidity Rates
new cases come from a population which is disease-free at the beginning of an observation period. This disease=free population is the population at risk.
Incidence
33
# Morbidity Rates
a measure of the average risk or the average probability of developing an illness in a disease-free individual
Cumulative Incidence

41
# Morbidity Rate
This is also called FORCE OF MORBIDITY or HAZARD RATE.
Incidence Density (ID) or Incidence Rate (IR)
42
# Morbidirt Rate
The period of observation for the entire group may not be explicit BUT the time of follow-up for each individual is taken into consideration in the denominator which is measured in PERSON-TIME
Incidence Density or Incidence Rate

# Relationship of Incidence and Prevalence
T or F
All cases start at Prevalence
F - starts at INCIDENCE
57
what is the state when a population is stable in its size and structure and if both the prevalence and incidence rate remains constant

| ALL AGES
## Footnote
no. of deaths caused by a certain disease/ total dead po'n
79
# Disadvatange of PMR - T or F
When an epidemic of a multiple disease occur, the total number of deaths is increased with a corresponding decrease in the PMR from other causes even if there may not have been any absolute decrease in the number of deaths from these other causes.
F - SINGLE DISEASE LANG P
80
# PMR, Advantage - T or F
Population data are not required in the computation of the rate
T
81
# PMR, Advantage - T or F
There are usually no problems of age classification, except at age 10 years and over
F - 50 years and over
82
# PMR, Advantage - T or F
The rate is generally stable and easy disturbed by poor quality of registration and age classificatio
F
## Footnote
"not disturbed even by poor quality of registration and age classification."
83
# PMR, Advantage - T or F
Records, as data sources of PMR, are usually available from a large number of countries.
T
84
what is the example of PMR sa lesson
Swaroop's Index
85
Swaroop’s Index is an example of?
Age PMR
86
Rate that may be computed by cause, age, sex, occupation, etc
| basically any
Proportionate Mortality Rate/Ratio (PMR)
87
Ideally, identify the cases of a particular disease, then set a length of observation or follow-up period during which we observe how many of these cases will die.
Case Fatality Rate (CFR)
88
# TOF
The duration of the follow-up in CFR period is usually the duration of the clinical course of the disease during which the patient may die
True
| want kasi nila malaman duration ng life bago mamatay HASFHSAFHASHW WTF
89
if u see this card
Study the general formula for swaroops index and CFR
## Footnote
no of deaths/no of cases
90
CFR indirectly measures the
“killing power” of the disease.
91
# TOF
The more fatal course of the disease, the lower is the CFR
F - Higher the CFR
92
why CFR can be modified or affected?
* completeness of reporting cases as well as death
* Treatment and other procedures that can extend lives of those affected
| some death are not reported, be cautious
93
# which disease are deadlier?
CFR, covid-19 = 1.47%
CFR, Malignant Neoplasm = 66%
Malignant Neoplasm since its higher okay? omkie
94

Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR)
95
review the formula for MMR
go on bb
| bareback or backburner????
## Footnote
no. of deaths among woman/total no. of live births
96
what cases can be included in MMR??
all diseases that AGGRAVATES the pregnancy
Ex: nasagasaan, no di pwede
97
# Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) - T or F
The number of live births used in the denominator does not represent the entire population-at-risk of dying
T
98
# Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) - T or F
The real population-at-risk of dying from maternal causes is the population of pregnant men (i.e., the number of pregnancies)
F - women
| There is no registry for pregnant women
99
in MMR why was the live birth has been used as denominator?
**number is usually unknown,** number of live births has been conventional and for practical measures.
100
review the formula for Infant mortality RAte
ATE
## Footnote
deaths of <1/ total live births
101
# Classify what rate
Infant are observed up to 1 year, and if namatay during the observation, well kasama sila sa rate
Infant Mortality Rate (IMR)
102
One of the most sensitive indices of the health conditions of the general population
Infant Mortality Rate (IMR)
103
From Health Officer’s Point of View, low IMR suggests?
| familiarize mo nalang, di kanaman si maam polly
* Adequate immunization program
* Sound infant and maternal nutrition program
* Satisfactory ante-and post-natal services
* Good disease control program
* Strict laws goveming the administration of health programs
104
From Sanitarian’s Point of View, low IMR means:
* Good environmental sanitation
* Good water supply
* Adequate insect and vermin control
* Good housing facilities, etc
105
From Social Worker’s Point of View, Low IMR means:
* Illegitimates are not neglected
* Female babies are equally welcome as male babies
* High standard of living
106
The ideal denominator of IMR is the
population of infants
| however, the **number of live births** is used as a substitute to this
107
# IMR - T or F
Relatively good data on the number of live births is a lot easier to obtain than good data on the population of infants.
True
108
# IMR - T or F
Difference in the way live birth is defined will not cause errors in the computation of IMR.
F - they will
109
# IMR - T or F
Campaigning for birth registration may lower IMR without really reducing the number of infant deaths.
True
| cause mas malalaman yung true data
110
One variation of IMR
Infant Death Rate (IDR),
111
difference of IMR to IDR (infant death rate)
same numerator, but different denominators
112
what are the number used in the denominator of IDR and IMR
* IDR - number of children under 1 year
* IMR - total reported live birth
| AS DENOMINATOR
113
# IMR - T or F
Accurate data on the number of infants is difficult to obtain, thus, IMR is more commonly used than IDR.
True - diko alam bat true pero sure
114
# Other IMR-Related Mortality Indicators

115
# Other IMR-Related Mortality Indicators
Deaths in the neonatal period are mostly due to prenatal causes, and are more difficult to reduce than the post-neonatal period.
Neonatal Mortality Rate (<28 days)
116
# Other IMR-Related Mortality Indicators
Ex: Congenital Heart Disease – occurs in prenatal, causes death
Neonatal Mortality Rate (<28 days)
117
# Other IMR-Related Mortality Indicators
* Sometimes referred to as Late Infant Mortality Rate
* Death rate of infants from 28 days to under one year old.
* Due to environmental causes.

Neonatal Mortality Rate + Post-neonatal Mortality Rate =? what rate
Infant Mortality Rate (IMR)
120
# Other IMR-Related Mortality Indicators
Also known as Fetal Death Ratio
Still Birth Rate
121
In the computation of fetal deaths, what is the appropriate denominator?
number of conceptions and pregnancies* (and is indirectly obtained by adding all fetal deaths and live births)*
122
# Still Birth Rate - T or F
Since fetal deaths, especially early fetal deaths, are seldom reported, WHO recommends the use of live births only in the numerator of the rate.
F - Denominator
123
# Other IMR-Related Mortality Indicators
