1. PERCEIVED SUSCEPTIBILITY TO AN ILLNESS: family hx of DM increases risk to develop the disease
2. PERCEIVED SERIOUSNESS OF ILLNESS: DM lifelong disease
3. PERCEIVED THREAT OF ILLNESS: DM causes damage to brain, heart, eyes, kidneys, blood vessels
• HEALTH BELIEF MODEL (BECKER, 1975)
2. MODIFYING FACTORS
1.DEMOGRAPHIC VARIABLES: age, sex, race
2. SOCIOPSYCHOLOGIC VARIABLES: social pressure or influence from peer
3. STRUCTURAL VARIABLES: knowledge about the disease and prior contact with it
4. CUES TO ACTION: internal (fatigue, uncomfortable symptoms) external (mass media advice from others)
• HEALTH BELIEF MODEL (BECKER, 1975)
3. LIKELIHOOD OF TAKING RECCOMMENDED PREVENTIVE HEALTH ACTION
1. Perceived benefits of preventive action
2. Perceived Barriers to preventive action
Preventive health behavior may include lifestyle changes, increased adherence to medical therapies, search medical advice or treatment.
Perceived barriers to preventive action may be due difficulty to lifestyle changes, social pressures, physical symptoms such as fatigue, joints pains, economic factors, accessibility of healthcare facilities.
• HEALTH BELIEF MODEL (BECKER, 1975)
• SMITH’S MODEL OF HEALTH
1. CLINICAL MODEL: views people as physiologic system with related functions and identifies health as absence of signs and symptoms of disease or injury.
2. ROLE PERFORMANCE MODEL: defines health in terms of individual’s ability to fulfill societal roles such as performing work.
• SMITH’S MODEL OF HEALTH
3. ADAPTIVE MODEL: adaptation is the focus; views health as a creative processes and diseases as a failure in adaptation or mal-adaptation. Aim of treatment is to restore the ability of the person to adapt; COPE
4. EUDAEMONISTIC MODEL: HEALTH is a condition of actualization or realization of a person’s potential; avers the highest aspiration of people is fulfilment and complement development - actualization
• LEAVELL AND CLARK’S
Avers that there are three interactive fact be affected ors that affect health and illness.
1. AGENT: any factor or stressor that can lead to illness
2. HOST: persons who may or may not be susceptible to disease
3. ENVIRONMENT: any factor external to the host that may or may not predispose the person to a certain disease.
• LEAVELL AND CLARK’S
• DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH
• Affected by a combination of many factors
• Determined his circumstances and environment
• It is inappropriate therefore to blame or credit the persons state of health to himself alone because he is unlikely able to directly control many of these factors
• Knowledge of these factors is important in order to effectively promote health and prevent illnesses
• FACTORS AFFECTING HEALTH AND ILLNESS
• PHYSICAL DIMENSION
• Genetic make-up, age, developmental level, race and sex are all part of an individual’s physical dimension and strongly influence health status and health practices.
Examples:
a. The toddler just learning to walk is prone to fail and injure himself.
b. The young woman who has a family history of breast cancer and diabetes and therefore is at a higher risk to develop these conditions.
• EMOTIONAL DIMENSION
• How the mind and body interact to affect body function and to respond to body conditions also influences health. Long term stress affects the body systems and anxiety affects health habits; conversely, calm acceptance and relaxation can actually change body responses to illness.
Examples:
a. Prior to a test, a student always has diarrhea.
b. Extremely nervous about a surgery, a man experiences severe pain following his operation.
c. Using relaxation techniques, a young woman reduces her pain during the delivery of her baby.
• INTELLECTUAL DIMENSION
• The intellectual dimension encompasses cognitive abilities, educational background and past experiences. These influence a client’s responses to teaching about health and reactions to health care during illness. They also play a major role in health behaviors.
Examples:
a. An elderly woman who has only a third-grade education who needs teaching about a complicated diagnostic test.
b. A young college student with diabetes who follows a diabetic diet but continues to drink beer and eat pizza with friends several times a week.
• ENVIRONMENTAL DIMENSION
• The environment has many influences on health and illness. Housing, sanitation, climate and pollution of air, food and water are aspects of environmental dimension.
Example:
a. Increased incidence of asthma and respiratory problems in large cities with smog.
• SOCIO-CULTURAL DIMENSION
• Health practices and beliefs are strongly influenced by a person’s economic level, lifestyle, family and culture.
• Low-income groups are less likely to seek health care to prevent or treat illness; high-income groups are more prone to stress-related habits and illness.
• SOCIO-CULTURAL DIMENSION
• The family and the culture to which the person belongs determine patterns of livings and values, about health and illness that are often unalterable.
Examples:
a. The adolescent who sees nothing wrong with smoking or drinking because his parents smoke and drink.
b. The person of Asian descent who uses herbal remedies and acupuncture to treat an illness.
• SPIRITUAL DIMENSION
• Spiritual and religious beliefs are important components of the way the person behaves in health and illness.
Examples:
a. Roman Catholics require baptism for both live births and stillborn babies.
b. Jehovah Witnesses’ are opposed to blood transfusions.
• ILLNESS AND DISEASE
ILLNESS
Personal state in which the person feels unhealthy.
State in which a person’s physical, emotional, intellectual, social development or spiritual functioning is diminished or impaired with previous experience.
• ILLNESS AND DISEASE
ILLNESS
Illness is not synonymous with disease ; although nurses must be familiar with different kinds of diseases and their treatments thay are concerned more with illness which may include disease but also the effects on functioning and well-being in all dimensions.
• DISEASE
Alteration in body functions resulting in reduction of capacities shortening of the normal life span.
COMMON CAUSES OF DISEASE
1. Biologic agents (microorganisms)
2. Inherited genetic defects (cleft palate)
3. Developmental defects (imperforate anus)
4. Physical agents (radiation, UV rays, hot & cold substances)
5. Chemical agents (lead)
6. Tissue response to irritation (fever, inflammation)
7. Faulty chemical/metabolic processes (inadequate insulin in diabetes mellitus, inadequate iodine causing goiter)
8. Emotional/physical reaction to stress (anxiety. Fear)
• STAGES OF ILLNESS
1. Symptom experience
Transition stage
WRONG
Experiences some symptom
3 ASPECTS:
PHYSICAL (muscle aches, headache)
COGNITIVE (perception of having “flu”)
EMOTIONAL (worry on consequence of illness)
• STAGES OF ILLNESS
2. Assumption of Sick Role
Acceptance of the illness
Seeks medical advice, support for decision to give up some activities
3. Medical Care Contact
Seeks advice to medical professionals for several reasons:
1. validation of real illness
2. explanation of symptoms
3. reassurance or prediction of outcome
• STAGES OF ILLNESS
4. Dependent Patient Role
The person becomes a client dependent on health professional for help
Accepts/rejects health professiona’s suggestions
Become more passive and accepting
May regress to an earlier behavioral stage.
• STAGES OF ILLNESS
5. Recovery and Rehabilitation
Gives up the sick role and returns to former roles and functions.
• ASPECTS OF SICK ROLE
One is not held responsible for his condition and person did not cause his illness

Obliged to seek for competent help and expected to seek help from health professionals.
• RISK FACTORS
Any situation, habit, social or environmental condition, physiological, or psychological condition, developmental, intellectual condition or spiritual or other variable that increases the vulnerability of an individual or group to an illness or accident.
It s presence doesn’t necessarily mean that a disease will develop but risks factors increases the chances that the individual will experience a particular dysfunction.
• RISK FACTORS OF A DISEASE
1. GENETIC AND PHYSIOLOGICA FACTORS
2. AGE
3. ENVIRONMENT (CA)
4. LIFESTYLE
GOAL OF RISK FACTOR IDENTIFICATION: merely assist clients in visualizing those areas in their life that can be modified or even eliminated to promote wellness and prevent illness.
• CLASSIFICATION OF DISEASE: ETIOLOGIC FACTORS
1. Hereditary
2. Congenital
3. Metabolic
4. Deficiency
5. Traumatic
6. Allergic
7. Neoplastic
8. Idiopathic
9. Degenerative
10. Iatrogenic
• CLASSIFICATION OF DISEASE: DURATION OR ONSET
1. ACUTE ILLNESS: short duration; severe; symptoms are abrupt; intense and subside after relatively short periodaffects functioning in any dimension
2. CHRONIC ILLNESS: persists usually longer than 6 months and can also affect functioning in any dimension. Client may fluctuate between maximal functioning and serious relapses that may be life threatening. Characterized by REMISSION AND EXACERBATION
• CLASSIFICATION OF DISEASE: DURATION OR ONSET
REMISSION: period during which the disease is controlled and symptoms are not obvious
EXACERBATION: disease becomes more active again at a future time, with reccurence of pronounced symptoms.
• CLASSIFICATION OF DISEASE: OTHER CLASSIFICATION
1. Organic
2. Functional
3. Occupational
4. Familial
5. Venereal
6. Epidemic
7. Endemic
8. Pandemic
9. Sporadic
