Epidemiology • Epidemiology: Definition and historical background; from Aristoteles to the modern idea of causality; risk factors; exposure and association; Badford Hill criteria. • Demography fundamentals: demographic transition; ageing; demographic trends and health determinants; new perspectives in health definitions; ICD and ICDHI; multidimension and the doctor-patient relationship • Health statistics fundamentals: measures of central tendency; frequency distribution; measures of statistical dispersion; fundamentals of probability; fundamentals of a sample size calculation • Determinants of health: nutrition, income, education; incidence and prevalence; confounding factors and standardized rates; random and systematic bias. • Epidemiological investigation: case-control studies; cohort studies; randomized controlled trials; Odds Ratio, relative risk, attributable risk and etiologic fraction. • Screening: definition; system, disease and test requirements; sensibility and specificity, negative and positive predictive value; applications
Hygiene • General and applied hygiene: definition of health and disease: definition of primary, secondary and tertiary prevention; Health promotion; • Hygiene of the physical environment: air, water, soil, climate, ionizing radiation; • Hygiene of the biological environment: microorganisms, foods; • Hygiene of the the social environment: urbanization, housing; • Hygiene of the patient and hospital hygiene: asepsis, antisepsis, disinfection, disinfestation, sterilization, hospital waste, hospital infections, occupational risks; • Prophylaxis of infectious diseases: notification, diagnostic assessment, isolation, vaccination and seroprophylaxis.
Organization and planning in health • Organization of health systems: principles and aims of health organization; organization models of health service; levels of assistance; organization of the hospital; social and health integration; local services; health planning at national and regional level; international health planning.
Epidemiology: definition and purpose of epidemiology; notes on demography and health statistics; epidemiological methodology: rates, mortality and morbidity measures, prevalence and incidence, association measures; descriptive, analytical and investigative epidemiology, transversal, retrospective and prospective investigations; experimental and general epidemiology of infectious diseases and non-infectious diseases; global health and health determinants.
