People who are obese are more likely to have health problems such as: high blood pressure, raised cholesterol high insulin levels, impaired glucose tolerance, type two diabetes, heart attacks, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, kidney problems and polycystic ovary syndrome. Not all children will have these health problems but doctors are finding these problems in children and the children are getting younger. As a whole childhood obesity puts children in harm’s way and the future of America. And that is why the cycle must be reversed. We owe to the country and the kids who live
There are many interventions that school nurses can do. To reverse the obesity epidemic, schools should focus on supporting healthy eating and active living throughout the school day. Nurses are able to teach the importance of healthy eating and choosing better choices in the lunch line. We are also able to get weights and intervene when the nurse thinks an intervention needs to be at play. The ability of nurses to be agents of change in our collective areas of practice.
It includes many diseases including coronary heart disease, peripheral vascular disease, stroke, heart attacks, arthrosclerosis, arteriosclerosis, angina pectoris and heart failure (Ruskin, 2009). These diseases are a major cause of death, have a huge impact on society, have many long term effects and the incidence is set to increase due to the aging population and increased rate of obesity within Australia. These factors support the argument that CVD is the major issue facing this society today. CVD is the leading causes of death in Australia. It accounted for around 36% of all deaths in 2004 [ (Statistics, 2006) ].
Patient and family involvement in plan and care is very vital. The outcome is that the patient/family should be to recognize signs and symptoms of MI and be able to call for emergency assistance (911). Assess and educate the patient on diet control – Have the patient tell you
Advertising and Its Effects on Childhood Obesity It has been said many times before that children are our future. One of the most alarming statistics about our future is the ever-alarming rate of obesity and overweight children in the United States. “Childhood obesity has more than tripled in the past 30 years. The prevalence of obesity among children aged 6 to 11 years increased from 6.5% in 1980 to 19.6% in 2008. The prevalence of obesity among adolescents aged 12 to 19 years increased from 5.0% to 18.1%” (Childhood Obesity).
Abstract According to the CDC (Center for Disease Control) in the past twenty years there has been an increase in obesity in the United States. The CDC data base points out that about a third of the American population is suffering from obesity and seventeen percent or 12.5 million of the American children and adolescents are also suffering from obesity. [1] This research will address several questions including: what is obesity? Are there any medical conditions related to obesity? What is the leading cause of obesity in America?
This technique has been used for recent studies but now special efforts should be made in monitoring the social, behavioral, and environmental factors contributing to that elevated risk of obesity so patterns of behavior leading to obesity can be documented and addressed. Other improvements can be made in programs that educate the public and private sectors of our youth by teaching the importance of good nutrition and healthy snacks along with regular physical activity. Similarly, federal nutrition assistance programs, including the Department of Agriculture's (USDA's) Food Stamp Program and the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children and Congress should request independent assessments of these assistance programs to ensure that each provides adequate access to healthful dietary choices for the populations served. Ideas include using special vouchers or coupons for purchasing fruits, vegetables, and whole-grain baked goods for those in need or sponsoring some sort of discount promotions and making it possible to use electronic benefit transfer cards at farmers' markets or community-supported agricultural markets. All the test programs that prove successful should be enforced and scaled up as quickly as possible.
Health promotion to combat childhood obesity is therefore needed to avoid childhood obesity and the medical risks associated with obesity. The theoretical structure that will be used is the behavior change wheel which would guide research on health promotion techniques to prevent obesity. The behavior change wheel is a conceptual framework by Michie et al. which was developed using a broad review of existing structures.This framework requires the identification of behaviors that need to be introduced so as to develop and promote public health policies. Policy experts have argued that significant health promotion could be achieved by involving all levels of the society including those within and those outside the health sector schools Goals and objectives The childhood obesity health promotion is very crucial to create awareness about the increasing prevalence of the childhood obesity cases.
They should know how to talk to children in order to get accurate information to help in diagnosis and treatment.
