Models of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention II01:18

Models of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention II

2.1K
The person's health status fluctuates continually, varying from being in good health to becoming ill and returning to being healthy. To understand the concept of illness prevention, there are two models. First, the health-illness continuum model is a graphic representation of an individual's wellness. It states that a person is considered healthy in the absence of physical disease and the presence of good emotional health.
The agent-host-environment model states that disease results...

Levels of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention

Health promotion allows a person to control the determinants of health, resulting in an improved health status. It enhances the quality of life and reduces premature deaths. Health promotion and illness prevention programs help people make beneficial choices to reduce the risk of disease and disabilities. There are three health promotion and illness prevention levels: primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention.
In primary prevention, actions taken before disease onset prevent the disease from...

Models of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention I

2.8K
A model is a theoretical way to understand a concept or an idea. Models can overcome barriers to health regardless of diverse economic and cultural backgrounds. In addition, models make the task easier by providing different ways to approach complex issues. There are two major health promotion models: the health belief model and the health promotion model.
The health belief model (HBM) attempts to predict health-related behavior in specific belief patterns. According to the HBM, a person's...

Insufficient Sleep and Sleep Deprivation01:13

Insufficient Sleep and Sleep Deprivation

859
Insufficient sleep refers to not getting the recommended amount of sleep for optimal functioning, even if it's just slightly less than needed. Sleep insufficiency may occur due to lifestyle choices, such as staying up late for social events or work, resulting in routinely getting less sleep than required. For example, consistently sleeping 6 hours when the body needs 7-9 hours can lead to cumulative effects on health and well-being.
Sleep deprivation is a more severe form of sleep loss...

The Eukaryotic Promoter Region02:40

The Eukaryotic Promoter Region

18.7K
The eukaryotic promoter region is a segment of DNA located upstream of a gene. It contains an RNA polymerase binding site, a transcription start site, and several cis-regulatory sequences.  The proximal promoter region is located in the vicinity of the gene and has cis-regulatory sequences and the core promoter. The core promoter is the binding site for RNA polymerase and is usually located between -35 and +35 nucleotides from the transcription start site. The distal promoter regions are...

Nursing Interventions I: Taxonomy of Nursing Interventions

3.7K
Nursing interventions are chosen as part of the planning process to achieve patient outcomes. Once nursing diagnoses are determined, the goals and outcomes are specified, then the nursing interventions are selected and individualized according to the patient's situation.
A nursing intervention is a treatment or action based on scientific concepts and knowledge from the nursing, behavioral, and physical sciences. Identifying and prioritizing nursing interventions based on the desired outcome...

Area of Science:

  • Occupational Health
  • Sleep Medicine
  • Public Health Interventions

Background:

  • Sleep deficiency is linked to adverse health and productivity outcomes.
  • Employer-initiated interventions are explored to mitigate these effects.
  • Workplace strategies for sleep improvement are gaining attention.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To synthesize published literature on employer-led interventions for improving worker sleep.
  • To evaluate the impact of these interventions on health, productivity, and absenteeism.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic search of PubMed (1966-2017) followed by a selective narrative review.
  • Extracted data on worker professions, settings, shift work, and sleep interventions.
  • Focused on 47 articles evaluating sleep duration or quality outcomes.

Main Results:

  • Most studies used non-randomized designs with self-reported sleep measures.
  • Common interventions included sleep hygiene education and fatigue management.
  • Reports indicated improvements in sleep duration, quality, and reduced sleepiness.

Conclusions:

  • Employer-sponsored efforts can positively impact worker sleep and related outcomes.
  • Evidence suggests these interventions may reduce absenteeism and improve quality of life.
  • The review provides candidate workplace strategies for promoting sleep health.
