A comprehensive obesity surveillance system monitors obesity rates along with causes and related health policies, which are valuable for tracking and identifying problems needing intervention.
A statewide obesity dashboard was created using the County Health Rankings model. Indicators were obtained through publicly available secondary data sources and used to rank Wisconsin amongst other states on obesity rates, health factors, and policies.
Wisconsin consistently ranks in the middle of states for a majority of indicators and has not implemented any of the evidence-based health policies.
This state of obesity report shows Wisconsin has marked room for improvement regarding obesity prevention, especially with obesity-related health policies. Physicians and health care systems can play a pivotal role in making progress on obesity prevention.
一个全面的肥胖监测系统会监测肥胖率以及成因和相关健康政策,这对于追踪和识别需要干预的问题很有价值。
使用县健康排名模型创建了一个全州范围的肥胖情况仪表盘。指标通过公开可用的二手数据源获取,并用于在肥胖率、健康因素和政策方面将威斯康星州与其他州进行排名。
在大多数指标方面,威斯康星州一直排名中等,且尚未实施任何基于证据的健康政策。
这份肥胖状况报告显示,威斯康星州在肥胖预防方面,尤其是在与肥胖相关的健康政策方面,有显著的改进空间。医生和医疗保健系统在肥胖预防取得进展方面可以发挥关键作用。
