A large Health Survey was carried out in 1984-86 in the county of Nord-Trøndelag. All residents 20 years of age and older were invited to attend, and there was no upper age limit. Totally 74,977 persons have attended (88.1%). In the age group 45-64 more than 95% of the women attended. In cooperation with the district nurses we have studied the non-attendants, based on a 10% sample. The main reasons for not attending were: 1) Many were busy. 2) Some were not interested, 3) Some had moved, 4) Some had health problems. As a group, the non-attendants were less healthy than the attendants, but this was the case for only 12% of non-attendants. These 12%, however, were seriously ill. The data from the Nord-Trøndelag Health Survey are probably the most complete screening data from Norway. The data are especially suitable for epidemiologic studies on blood pressure, diabetes, quality of life, and tuberculosis and other lung diseases. However, the study has also supplied data on cardiovascular diseases, lifestyle, disablement, work and working environment. Several projects in these fields are in progress. The article is based on a report published in 1989.
1984年至1986年期间,在北特伦德拉格郡开展了一项大规模健康调查。所有20岁及以上的居民均受邀参加,且没有年龄上限。共有74977人参加(参与率为88.1%)。在45至64岁年龄组中,超过95%的女性参加了调查。我们与地区护士合作,基于10%的样本对未参与者进行了研究。未参加调查的主要原因有:1)许多人很忙。2)一些人不感兴趣。3)一些人搬离了。4)一些人有健康问题。总体而言,未参与者的健康状况不如参与者,但只有12%的未参与者是这种情况。然而,这12%的人病情严重。北特伦德拉格健康调查的数据可能是挪威最完整的筛查数据。这些数据特别适用于关于血压、糖尿病、生活质量以及结核病和其他肺部疾病的流行病学研究。不过,该研究还提供了关于心血管疾病、生活方式、残疾、工作和工作环境的数据。这些领域的几个项目正在进行中。本文基于1989年发表的一份报告。
