Currently an estimated 16 million Americans have diabetes, more than half of them women. Why, then, has so little progress been made in reducing the burden of this disabling disease? This provocative question is explored by the authors of Diabetes and Women's Health Across the Life Stages: A Public Health Perspective. Throughout its pages, editors Gloria L.A. Beckles and Patricia E. Thompson-Reid and their collaborators introduce us to some eye-opening issues and some serious, sobering implications for the health of women. There is no better time for this in-depth look at diabetes as a women's health issue than now, as we begin a technologically advanced new century. Old or young, one third of American women are overweight, and more than one-fourth do not participate in any leisure-time physical activity, according to the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III 1988–1994). As a group, American women are aging and growing more obese and less physically active; each of these factors increases their risk for type 2 diabetes. Currently, about 20 million are over age 65. By the year 2030, that number is expected to double to 40 million, or roughly 1 in 4 American women. Astonishingly, more than 7 million women will be past the age of 85, compared with 4 million men. The face of the American population is also changing: by the year 2050, 1 in 4 American women will be of Hispanic heritage, 1 in 8 African American, 1 in 11 Asian American, and 1 in 100 American Indian. Non-Hispanic whites will represent barely half of the population of women. Currently, the prevalence of diabetes is at least 2–4 times higher among women of color, and if this trend continues, the burden of diabetes could reach unimaginable dimensions. The intent of this monograph is: To describe the diversity within the population of American women as a context for the discussion of women's health issues; To present a situational analysis of the epidemiological, social, and environmental circumstances in which American women develop and live with diabetes; To synthesize and present in a single document the health status of women with diabetes ; To suggest ways in which public health agencies can contribute to improved access and quality of care for women with diabetes; To serve as a general reference document for public health professionals, advocacy groups, and all persons in the diabetes community; and To increase awareness of the general population that diabetes is a serious health problem.~

Download or read book A National Public Health Initiative on Diabetes and Women's Health written by Department of Health and Human Services and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2012-07-09 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diabetes is a serious public health issue affecting more than 17 million Americans, more than half of whom are women. With the increasing life span of women and the rapid growth of minority racial and ethnic populations in the United States (who are hardest hit by the diabetes burden), the number of women at high risk for diabetes and its complications will continue to increase, placing added demands on the health care delivery system and on other sectors of society. The estimated cost of diabetes to the United States for direct health care and other indirect expenditures is about $100 billion annually. In 2000, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) established the National Public Health Initiative on Diabetes and Women's Health, which has three phases. In Phase I, Diabetes & Women's Health Across the Life Stages: A Public Health Perspective was prepared. This report, published in 2001, examines the issues that make diabetes a serious public health problem for women; analyzes the epidemiologic, psychosocial, socioeconomic, and environmental dimensions of women and diabetes; and discusses the public health implications. In Phase II, the information contained in the Phase I report was converted into an interim report containing recommendations for needed strategies, policies, disease tracking, and research to improve the lives of women diagnosed with or at risk for diabetes. Phase III will involve preparing and implementing the National Public Health Action Plan on Diabetes and Women's Health. This final phase of the Initiative will translate the recommendations into con¬crete operational programs and policies for relevant agencies and organizations. This interim report culminates Phase II and was prepared jointly by four cosponsor-ing organizations: CDC, the American Diabetes Association (ADA), the American Public Health Association (APHA), and the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials (ASTHO). The purpose of this report is to offer priority recommendations for responding to diabetes as a prominent public health issue for women and to garner the attention of policy makers, public health professionals, other advocates for wom¬en's issues, researchers, and the general public. In particular, this document provides recommendations for persons charged with making decisions and affecting policies related to diabetes and women's health. This interim report outlines the vision and goals for the National Public Health Initiative on Diabetes and Women's Health, guiding principles, a public health framework, and a life stage approach for addressing diabetes and women's health. These life stages are the adolescent years (ages 10-17 years), the reproductive years (ages 18-44 years), the middle years (ages 45-64 years), and the older years (ages 65 years and above). Many of the recommendations for public health action pertain to all women, regardless of life stage; others are life stage-specific. While the emphasis is specifically on women's health, adopting and implementing many of the recommendations will improve the health and well-being of men and families as well.

Download or read book National Agenda for Public Health Action written by U. S. Department of Health and Human Services and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2012-06-26 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Agenda for Public Health Action represents a monumental step in addressing a priority health issue for women. It has been a work in progress and a true collaboration among the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the American Diabetes Association (ADA), the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials (ASTHO), and the American Public Health Association (APHA) – and numerous additional partnering organizations. The National Agenda for Public Health Action challenges us as a nation to reach beyond our traditional boundaries of public and private health care, federal and state politics, community programs and academic research, and media and training. It poses a vision of a nation in which diabetes among women is prevented or at least delayed whenever possible, and it outlines a rational and feasible plan for making that vision a reality. We hope that the National Agenda will become a beacon for mobilizing the collective energies and resources of multiple entities to truly make a difference in the lives of women and their families who face the daily challenges of diabetes. Diabetes is a tremendous financial burden on patients, their families and society. It's a burden that grows in conjunction with America's obesity epidemic. Diabetes costs our country $132 billion a year in direct medical costs and in indirect costs such as disability, missed work and premature death. More importantly, it costs Americans their lives, their health and their well-being. But amidst all the bad news, there is also good news: Diabetes is often preventable. Of the more than 17 million Americans with diabetes, more than half are women. An additional 16 million more Americans have pre-diabetes. We must all work to fight this disease that affects so many of our friends, neighbors and loved ones. Fighting diabetes through research and public education is one of our top priorities at the Department of Health and Human Services. That's why HHS' Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in cooperation with partners such as the American Diabetes Association, the American Public Health Association, and the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials, developed the National Agenda for Public Health Action. We hope this agenda will guide the nation in addressing diabetes and women's health. We want an America in which: Diabetes among women is prevented or at least delayed whenever possible; Women at risk for diabetes are provided the family and community support they need to prevent or delay diabetes and its complications; Appropriate care and management of diabetes among women is promoted across the life stages; And the occurrence of complications from diabetes among women is prevented, delayed, or minimized.~
