Slide 4

Asthma Mortality

Asthma mortality rates for five age groups shown for baseline year (1999) and most recent data point (2005).

The overall number of asthma deaths in 1999 (4,657) and 2005 (3,884) is shown; this is a 16.6% decrease in the number of asthma deaths.

Slide 5

Asthma Mortality, Adults 65 Years and Over

Trend lines show the changing asthma mortality rates by race and ethnicity from 1999 to 2005 for adults 65 years and over. Racial ethnic groups shown are non-Hispanic black, non-Hispanic white, Hispanic, and Asian Pacific Islander.

Slide 6

Asthma Hospitalizations

Asthma hospitalization rates for three age groups are shown for baseline year (1998) and most recent data point (2006).

A pie chart shows the breakdown of the percent of asthma hospitalizations for the three age groups.

Slide 7

Asthma Hospitalizations, Children Under 5 Years

Asthma hospitalization rates for children under 5 years are shown for baseline year (1998) and most recent data point (2006). Data are shown for the following categories: total, black, white, male, and female.

Slide 8

Asthma Hospitalizations, Adults 65 Years and Over

Asthma hospitalization rates for adults 65 years and over are shown for baseline year (1998) and most recent data point (2006)

Slide 9

Asthma Emergency Department Visits

Asthma emergency department visit rates for 3 age groups are shown for baseline year (1995-97) and most recent data point (2004-06).

Slide 10

Asthma emergency department visits, ages

5-64 years Asthma emergency department visit rates for the 5-64 age group are shown for baseline year (1995-97) and most recent data point (2004-06). Data are shown for the following categories: total, black, white, male, and female.

Slide 11

Asthma patient education: Have you ever taken a course or class on how to manage your asthma yourself?

Percent who have ever taken a course or class on how to manage their asthma themselves is shown for baseline (1998) and most recent data year (2003). Data are shown for the following categories: total, poor, near poor, and middle/high income.

Slide 12

Appropriate Asthma Care, 2003

The percent of asthma patients that reported that they have received the following 6 types of asthma care is shown:

• Proper use instructions with prescribed inhalers (2003 baseline data only)
• Preventive medication regimens (2003 baseline data only)
• Long term management care after hospitalization due to asthma (2003 baseline data only)
• Education on early signs, symptoms, and responses to asthma episodes (2003 baseline data only)
• Advice to reduce exposure to environmental risk factors (2002 baseline data and 2003 data)
• Written asthma plan from health care provider (2002 baseline data and 2003 data)

Slide 13

Advice to reduce exposure to environmental risk factors

The percent of people who have been asked to change things at home, school, or work to improve their asthma are shown for baseline (2002) and most recent data year (2003). Data are shown for the following categories: total, white, black, Hispanic, female, male, poor, near poor, and middle/high income.

Slide 14

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Mortality

Trend lines show the changing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease mortality rates by gender from 1999 to 2005 for adults 45 years and over.

A second set of trend lines show current cigarette smoking percents by gender from 1965 to 2005 for adults 18 years and over.

Slide 15

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Mortality, Adults 45 Years and Over

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Mortality rates are shown for baseline (1999) and most recent data year (2005). Data are shown for the following categories: total, white, American Indian/Alaska Native, black, Hispanic, and Asian/Pacific Islander.

Slide 16

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Death Rates, 2003-2005

Map showing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease death rate quintiles for health service areas.

Slide 17

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Death Rates, 2003-2005

Map showing first and fifth quintile of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease death rates for health service areas.

Slide 18

Persons With Sleep Apnea Symptoms who Seek Medical Care, Adults 20 years and over

Percent of adults with sleep apnea symptoms who have ever told a doctor that they have trouble sleeping is shown for data year 2005-06. Data are shown for the following categories: total, female, male, 20-39 years, 40-59 years, and 60+ years. These are new data that can be used to measure the developmental objective 24-11a.

A pie chart shows the percent of adults 20 years and over who have sleep apnea symptoms (31.3%).

Slide 19

Persons With Sleep Apnea Symptoms who Seek Medical Care, Adults 20 years and over

Percent of adults with sleep apnea symptoms who have been diagnosed with sleep apnea is shown for data year 2005-06. Data are shown for the following categories: total, female, male, 20-39 years, 40-59 years, and 60+ years.

Slide 20

Progress Toward 2010 Targets

Shows the status of non-highlighted respiratory disease objectives.
24-4 Activity limitations—among persons with asthma (improving)
24-5 School or work days lost—among persons with asthma, due to asthma (little or no change)
24-8 State-based asthma surveillance systems (target met)

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
24-9 Activity limitations due to chronic lung and breathing problems (little or no change)

Sleep Problems

• Asthma mortality has decreased for most age groups (16.6% decrease in number of deaths from 1999 to 2005)
• Asthma hospitalizations for older adults in 65+ age group have increased
• Asthma emergency department visits have changed very little
• COPD mortality for ages 45+ has decreased (4.1% decrease in age adjusted rates 1999 to 2005)
  • American Indian or Alaska Native: 14.2% decrease
  • Hispanic: 14.7% decrease
  • Asian or Pacific Islander: 19.7% decrease
