Définition(s)

  • Within the past century, scientific and medical advancements have been successful in preserving physical health and preventing and treating acute, infectious diseases (e.g., polio, tuberculosis) that negatively affected population health. These accomplishments, coupled with growth in the size and longevity of the older population, have shifted the attention of medical and public health professionals to the prevalence and incidence of chronic medical conditions (e.g., hypertension, arthritis).
