Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of death in Northern Ontario and therefore considered an important issue. To this end, this paper examines CVD trends in Northern Ontario and the prevalence of known risk factors that give an insight into these trends. Ontario Health Survey 1990, Ontario Health Survey 1996, Canadian Institute for Health Information (1990-95) and Vital Statistics (1990-95) were examined. It was determined that CVD rates in Northern Ontario significantly exceeded those of the province. Further, high prevalence of modifiable risk factors, such as smoking, fat intake, physical inactivity and obesity are all experienced in Northern Ontario when compared to the province. Planning implications, as they relate to collaboration, delivery of services, determinants of health, multiple risk factors and monitoring and evaluation are also discussed.
心血管疾病(CVD)是安大略省北部的主要死因,因此被视为一个重要问题。为此,本文研究了安大略省北部的心血管疾病趋势以及已知风险因素的流行情况,这些因素有助于深入了解这些趋势。研究了1990年安大略省健康调查、1996年安大略省健康调查、加拿大健康信息研究所(1990 - 95年)和生命统计数据(1990 - 95年)。结果表明,安大略省北部的心血管疾病发病率显著高于该省其他地区。此外,与该省相比,安大略省北部存在诸如吸烟、脂肪摄入、缺乏身体活动和肥胖等可改变风险因素的高流行率。还讨论了与合作、服务提供、健康决定因素、多种风险因素以及监测和评估相关的规划影响。
