| 2 | Goals Page | Overview of why under 65, identify top risk factors, age and risk factor analysis, and recommendation type | |
| 3 | Why Under 65 p1 | Patients 65 and over represent 20% of the overall population but accounts for 64% (159/249) of the stroke cases, making it overrepresented in determining stroke rate. | |
| 4 | Why Under 65 p2 | When
looking at the number of medically alterable risk factors, patients 65 and
above have an average of 1.27
risk factor. They have at least one of the following risk factors: heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, smoking, and obesity. |
|
| 5 | Complete In Group Stroke % | 1)
32 Categories were considered 2) Stroke risk is assessed as an "In-Group Stroke %" which means: * among the people that have this condition, what percentage of them have had a stroke? * if you have this condition, this is the risk of experiencing stroke. 3) Age (pre-seniors) is the third leading stroke rate, which shows that by filtering for under 65 we reduced the dominance of age. However, we still cannot and should not ignore age entirely. 4) For a full statistical breakdown, please see the appendix. |
|
| 6 | Top Risk Factors In Group % | 1)
The top five in-group stroke rate are: heart disease, high diabetes,
pre-seniors, hypertension, and smoking. 2) The baseline stroke rate for the entire population under 65 is 2.20% 3) Diabetes (diabetes + high diabetes) stroke rate is 4.78% |
|
| 7 | Top Risk Factors and Population Representation (heart disease focused) | Heart
disease accounts for 14.44% of the overall stroke cases while only
representing 2.35% of the overall population. |
|
| 8 | Top Risk Factors and Population Representation (all) | The disproportionate pattern isn't unique to just heart disease, notice that all of our top risk factors contribute more to the stroke burden than their population representation. | |
| 9 | Risk Factors Stroke Rate Decline | 1)
The drop in stroke rate is drastic from heart dieases to smoking. The
in-groupstroke rate tapers at a slower rate after the smoking category. 2) This shows the top risks that we identified are indeed major contributors to the likelyhood of experiencing stroke. |
|
| 10 | Age - Heart Disease Table | 1)
The risk multiplier is how much more patients in a certain age bracket are
identified as having heart disease. 2) Adults aged 45-54 are 6.69 more likely to have a heart disease than younger age groups. 3) To fulfill our goal of prevention over treatment, early screening and care planning should begin by age 34 to increase the chances of catching early warning signs of before heart disease develops later in life. |
|
| 11 | Age - Hypertension Table | 1)
According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), hypertension is a
symptomless risk factor that can develop at any age. 2) Based on our data, we see an 11-fold increase in hypertension from childhood to the young adult stage. 3) Blood pressure screening and monitoring should start by age 18 to get ahead of this silent but significant risk factor. |
|
| 12 | Age - Hypertension Bar Graph | 1)
The bar graph shows a big jump of hypertension rate from childhood to young
adulthood and then roughly doubles with each subsequent age group. 2) 1 in 6 patients aged 55-64 has hypertension, which highlights the need for prevention and early detection. |
|
| 13 | Non-Diabetic vs Diabetic Bar Graph | 1)
Simplified grouping of having diabetes and not having diabetes is a 4.78%
rate of stroke. 2) Reminder that high diabetes (200+) is an even higher risk of 7.46%. 3) Patients with diabetes are nearly 3x more at risk than petients that do not have diabetes. |
|
| 14 | Age - Diabetes Table | 1)
Focusing on the distribution of patients with diabetes over the
multiplier. 2) 1 in 5 patients aged 45-54 has diabetes. 3) Jumps to 1 in 4 patients aged 55-64. 4) The significant jump in diabetes rate is from adulthood (9.38%) to midlife adulthood (14.97%), making age 25 an ideal starting point for sceening and preventive care planning. |
|
| 15 | Smokes & Formerly Smoked | 1)
Patient stroke rate for people that smokes is 3.79% while people that quit
smoking have a stroke rate of 3.76% which is not significantly better. 2) Prevention is the solution. |
|
| 16 | Age - Smoking Table | 1)
Almost 1 in 4 people have a history of smoking in ages 18-24. 2) Prevention and early education starting at 18 years old would be necessary to reduce or eliminate the prevalence of this risk factor. |
|
| 17 | Recommendations p1 | 1)
Heart disease screening and preventive care planning at age 35. 2) Number of patients with heart disease jumps up 6x by ages 45-54. 3) Diabetes screening and preventive care planning for patients starting at age 25. 4) Numbe of patients with diabetes increases rapidly starting at age 25. |
|
| 18 | Recommendation p2 | 1)
Hypertension early blood pressure monitoring and care planning interventiona
and prevention as early as age 18. 2) Hypertension does not have obvious symptoms but can develop at any age. 3) Smoking prevention campaigns and behavioral health intervention as early as possible with more focus and instensity by age 18. 4) Nearly 1 in 4 patients already have a history of smoking by young adulthood and the risk is not significantly reduced by quitting. |
