Objective: Main purpose of this paper was to report the occurrence of chronic non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, obesity, smoking, alcohol consumption and roadside injuries and its impact on the Saskatchewan healthcare system. Methods: We searched the Public Health Agency of Canada, Canadian Institute for Health Information website, electronic databases including Medline, Scopus, PubMed, and CINAHL to review published literature in this area. Electronic searches were limited to Health care, Diabetes, Obesity, Alcohol and Roadside injuries in Saskatchewan. Results: Obesity is associated with diabetes and hyperlipidemia. Insufficient fruit and vegetable intake may be associated with obesity but still there is a dire need of more research to understand of obesity. Smoking leads to chronic respiratory diseases, coronary artery disease and cancer, making it the leading cause of death. Impaired driving related injuries are the leading consequences of alcohol which is burdening the nation with millions of dollars annually. There is a need for an effective mass media campaign to develop awareness. Overall hospitalization due to traffic-accidents is on the decline nationally due to effective safety measures and enhancement of quality care. However, traffic accidents are still the leading cause of admission due to unintentional injuries. Conclusions: The key issues that needs to be addressed as a priority are those related to diabetes, obesity, alcohol and respiratory diseases that result in serious threat to the public health of Saskatchewan residents. Finally, promoting healthy living and positive behaviour can prevent incidence of these chronic conditions.
Amaç: Bu yazının temel amacı diyabet, obezite, sigara içme, alkol tüketimi ve yol kenarı yaralanmaları gibi kronik bulaşıcı olmayan hastalıkların ortaya çıkışı ve Saskatchewan sağlık sistemi üzerindeki etkisi hakkında bilgi vermektir. Yöntem: Bu konudaki yayınları gözden geçirmek için Kanada Halk Sağlığı Kurumu, Kanada Sağlık Bilgi Enstitüsü web sitesi, Medline, Scopus, PubMed ve CINAHL gibi elektronik veritabanlarını araştırdık. Elektronik aramalar “Saskatchewan'daki sağlık bakımı, diyabet, obezite, alkol ve yol kenarındaki yaralanmalar” olarak belirlendi. Bulgular: Obezite diyabet ve hiperlipidemi ile ilişkilidir. Yetersiz meyve ve sebze alımı obezite ile ilişkili olabilir, ancak obeziteyi anlamak için daha fazla araştırmaya ihtiyaç vardır. Sigara içmek kronik solunum yolu hastalıklarına, koroner arter hastalığına ve kansere yol açar ve bu nedenle ölümün önde gelen nedenidir. Hatalı sürüş kaynaklı yaralanmalar, ülkeye yılda milyonlarca dolar yük getiren alkolün önde gelen sonuçlarıdır. Farkındalık geliştirmek için etkili bir kitle iletişim kampanyasına ihtiyaç vardır. Trafik kazaları nedeniyle hastaneye yatış, etkili güvenlik önlemleri ve kaliteli bakımın artırılması ile ulusal düzeyde azalmaktadır. Ancak, trafik kazaları, kasıtsız yaralanmalar kaynaklı başvuruların halen önde gelen nedenidir. Sonuç: Öncelikli ele alınması gereken temel konular, Saskatchewan’da yaşayanların halk sağlığını tehdit eden diyabet, obezite, alkol ve solunum hastalıkları ile ilgilidir. Son olarak, sağlıklı yaşamı ve olumlu davranışı teşvik etmek bu kronik sağlık sorunlarının insidansını önleyebilir.
