Mortality and morbidity rates for infectious diseases vary greatly by geographical location. World Health Organization (WHO) statistics provide striking documentation that deaths due to infectious diseases are much higher in poor countries than in the countries with the highest income levels. It is particularly striking that malaria and tuberculosis are significant causes of death in low-resource countries, whereas these diseases are rarely fatal in wealthy countries. Other infectious diseases that significantly cause death in low-resource countries are pneumonia, diarrhea, and HIV infection. The top ten causes of death in lower and middle-resource countries In lower and middle-resource countries also include lower respiratory infections, tuberculosis, and diarrheal diseases. 

1. Define infection and identify the differences between colonization and infection, giving specific examples of each.

2. How does infection start, and what is the usual course?

3. What factors influence the course of an infection? Give specific examples of different trajectories of infection.

App of Epidemiology

/in /by

Investigate population health and epidemiological data to learn about prevalent disease trends within your geographic region. Compare and contrast the prevalence of diseases in the selected region with disease rates and trends in a different geographic area of your choosing.

Statistics from valid, reliable sources such as professional population health-focused organizations, governmental agencies, local and state health departments, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are appropriate sources to validate assessment findings.

  1. Download the Application of Epidemiology template  (template is attached here)  
  2. Complete the Application of Epidemiology template to answer the questions related to your investigation. Use of this template is required. If the template is not used, a 10% deduction will be applied. See the rubric. Save the template and include your name in the file name. 
  3. Follow APA grammar, spelling, word usage, and punctuation rules consistent with formal, scholarly writing.  
  4. Use APA in-text citations and complete references to support your writing. 

Include the Following Sections (detailed criteria listed below and in the grading rubric)

  1. Prevalent Infectious and Chronic Diseases
    1. Describe the selected geographic region
    2. Identify the prevalent infectious and chronic diseases in the region
    3. Compare and contrast the prevalence of those diseases in a separate geographic region of your choosing, noting similarities and differences.
    4. Discuss the variables that contribute to the noted similarities and differences.
    5. Provide an in-text citation from one scholarly source to support your writing. 
  2. Application of the Epidemiological Model
    1. Select and describe one of the prevalent diseases noted in the previous section.
    2. Discuss physical and social determinants of health that influence the disease process.
    3. Identify and explain one epidemiological model that will be applied to the selected disease (i.e., Epidemiological Triangle, Web of Causation, or another legitimate epidemiological model).
    4. Apply the epidemiological model to the selected disease in a well-developed, comprehensive manner, addressing the entire model.
    5. Provide an in-text citation from one scholarly source to support your writing. 
  3. Levels of Prevention
    1. Explain the levels of prevention used within population health practice.
    2. Discuss one primary prevention to address the disease.
    3. Discuss one secondary prevention to address the disease.
    4. Discuss one tertiary prevention to address the disease.
    5. Provide an in-text citation from one scholarly source to support your writing. 
  4. Reflection
    1. Describe how the advanced practice nurse can monitor the application and efficacy of the prevention strategy.
    2. Discuss how you will apply the identified prevention strategies in your practice.
    3. Reflect on what you have learned from this assignment.
