a) To describe the distribution & magnitude of
health and disease problems in human
population.
b) To identify etiological factors (risk factors) in
the pathogenesis of disease &
c) To provide the data essential to the
planning, implementation & evaluation of
services for the prevention, control &
treatment of disease & to the setting up of
the priorities among those services.
BASIC MEASURAMENTS
IN EPIDEMIOLOGY
a) Measurement of mortality
b) Measurement of morbidity
c) Measurement of disability
d) Measurement of natality
e) Measurement of the presence, absence or
distribution of the characteristics or
attributes of the disease
f) Measurement of medical needs, health care
facilities, utilization of health services &
other health-related events
g) Measurement of presence, absence or
distribution of the environmental and
other factors suspected of causing the
disease.
h) Measurement of demographic
variables.
AIMS OF
EPIDEMIOLOGY
a) TO DESCRIBE THE DISTRIBUTION &
MAGNITUDE OF HEALTH & DIS.
b) TO IDENTIFY RISK FACTORS
c) TO PROVIDE DATA ESENTIAL TO THE
PLANNING IMPLEMENTATION AND
EVALUATION OF SERVICES FOR PREV.,
CONTROL AND T/T OF DISEASE.
EPIDEMIOLOGY AND CLINICAL MEDICINE
EPIDEMIOLOGICAL APPROACH
a) ASKING QUESTIONS

EPIDEMIOLOGY
EPIDEMIOLOGY : ( WORKING DEFINATION)
‘A means of learning or asking questions…
and getting answers that lead to further
questions’
Epidemiology helps in understanding the
strengths & weaknesses of clinical evidence,
such as reports of research, gives intellectual
satisfaction & confidence.
It can increase efficiency in acquiring sound
information
It provides sounder alternatives for conviction,
rhetoric, seniority or speciality of proponent.
The investigators are on a more equal
footing, all depending mainly on the
interpretation of the same set of strong
studies.
It gives a perspective on the extent to
which efforts, relative to other factors,
such as biology of the disease & the
physical & social environment,
determines health outcomes, so that
they can know what they can & cannot
change. ( they – clinicians)
