1. How does social justice and health inequities influence population health
care provision? Why is this critical information for the provision of evi-
dence-based care?
Answer> Social justice is the view that everyone deserves equal rights and
opportunity, including the right to health care. If social justice is not performed,
then population health will not be adequate.
2. Vital statistics
Answer> measurements of births, deaths, marriages, divorces, fetal deaths, and
abortions. Provides important outcome measures that can be analyzed overtime to
detect health disparities
3. Morbidity
Answer> the presence of disease/illness in a population or aggregate
4. Mortality
1///8
Answer> related to the tracking of deaths within a population or aggregate
5. Cases
Answer> persons with a disease
6. Social justice
Answer> the view that everyone deserves equal rights and opportunities
,7. Epidemiology
Answer> the study of disease distribution within populations and the risk factors
that affect increases or decreases in distribution
8. Population health
Answer> focuses on risk factors, data, demographics, and outcomes
9. Incidence
Answer> measures NEW cases; the number of new cases of a disease that
occurs during a specified period of time in a population at risk for developing the
disease
