NR 717 Week 3 Discussion; Population Health Interventions

Discussion: Population Health Interventions Using your selected population, continue your search and appraisal of evidence by analyzing one research study that offers a potential intervention to address your selected population health issue. This intervention must be at the population level. This research study must be new, one that was not used in a previous course. Appraise a quantitative research study that utilizes an intervention to address the selected health issue identified in Week 2 using the Johns Hopkins Research Appraisal Tool.

Analyze the evidence summary tool of the research study to address the following in the discussion: Determine whether the intervention has the potential to impact the issue. Explain your rationale. Attach the completed Johns Hopkins Individual Evidence Summary Tool. Present the translation science model that would best aid the success of this intervention and discuss how the stakeholders are integrated into the design of the theory or model. Identify where your selected intervention is located on the Minnesota Public Health Wheel.

Answer: Ensuring that the human population is healthy and faces few or no health disparities is the ultimate goal of healthcare programs and interventions. The high prevalence of diabetes among the Hopi Indians in Kykotsmovi Village, Arizona, is exacerbated by inequalities in healthcare access. Nonetheless, primary, secondary, and tertiary preventive measures can all be very helpful in making sure that the group being studied is safe from diabetes. There are studies on prevention, screening, and therapy aimed at lowering the incidence, consequences, or progression of diabetes. For instance, a good way to prevent diabetes is to lose weight by adhering to a diet low in calories and engaging in physical activity that keeps weight at a certain level. According to the attached quantitative research review, Gray et al. (2021) conducted a randomized control trial study to determine the impact of intermittent energy restriction on weight loss and diabetes risk markers in women who had previously experienced gestational diabetes. The potential of the Intervention to Impact the Issue Body fat is a risk factor for type 2 diabetes, and as a person's body mass index rises, so does their chance of developing type 2 diabetes (Escobedo-de la Peña et al., 2020). Therefore, preventing weight increase and the resulting body fat can lower the subject population's type 2 diabetes prevalence. Because it seeks to raise awareness of the need of controlling body weight as a way to lower the risk of getting diabetes, Gray et al.'s (2021) intervention is a level one, or primary and secondary, intervention. As Escobedo-de la Peña et al. (2020) point out, weight loss is a proven preventive method
