557. National Mortality Followback Survey: characteristics of persons who died from diseases of the heart - United States, 1986

Subjects

Abstract

The National Mortality Followback Survey collects information that is not typically available on death certificates about the characteristics and circumstances of people who have died. This is the fifth random survey conducted by the CDC (Centers for Disease Control). It focuses on the last year of life of persons 25 years of age or older in 1986 who died from heart disease, 36 percent of all deaths in the United States. Fifty-three percent of women in the study had annual incomes of less than $9,000, compared with 35 percent of the men. The survey found that 32 percent of the women lived alone or with an unrelated person; 22 percent lived in a nursing home; for the men these figures were 20 percent and 8 percent. More women than men were reported to have received assistance with activities of daily living, such as dressing, and with home medical care, such as taking medicines. Many of the decedents had multiple medical conditions, including high blood pressure, angina, diabetes, stroke, emphysema and cancer. With the exception of angina and respiratory problems, these illnesses were more common in women. Medicare was the source of medical payments for more than half of the decedents. Twenty-three percent of men used private insurance/HMOs (health maintenance organizations) while only 14 percent of women did so. The findings concerning the financial status, living conditions and poor health of women are, in part, reflective of their age and marital status at the time of death. Almost 70 percent of the female decedents were 75 years of age or older, compared to less than 50 percent of males. Women were also three times more likely to be widowed.

Abstract

James S. Todd, executive VP of the American Medical Assn, said at a news conference for the release of a national survey on health habits that people with unhealthy lifestyle habits should pay increased health insurance premiums. The survey indicated that 2/3 of American adults fail to exercise adequately and that only 51% of Americans avoided eating too much fat. Taylor also noted that many food products containing heavy salt, sugar and fat also achieved significant sales increases in 1992.
