  1. CANADIAN HEALTH MEASURES SURVEY (CHMS):Introduction and Overview Dr. Mark Tremblay, PhD Statistics Canada

  2. Health information collected through self-report surveys or administrative records may be incomplete or inaccurate Many variables cannot be assessed in the absence of direct physical measurements Directly measured variables can be reported on continuous scales Directly measured variables are more robust and objective Important health issues (metabolic syndrome, environmental toxins, physical inactivity) cannot be monitored without direct measures BACKGROUND

  3. To advance the Health Information Roadmap initiative: by addressing important data gaps and limitations in existing health information through direct physical measures of Canadians’ health physical fitness, height, weight, etc. blood and urine samples THE CHMS AIMS

  4. BODY WEIGHT CLASSIFICATION: SELF-REPORT VS DIRECT MEASURE 1. MacLellan et al. CJPH, 2004. 2. B.C. Nutrition Survey, 2004. 3. Campagna et al. NS Report, 2002; Tremblay and Willms. CMAJ, 2000. 4. Flegal et al. JAMA, 2002; Mokdad et al. JAMA, 2001.

  5. Forest plot of systematic review: BMI self-report-measured Connor-Gorber, Tremblay, Moher, Gorber. Obesity Reviews (in press)

  6. Direct Measure vs Self-report Physical Activity % meeting guidelines NHANES and BRFSS

  7. CHMS OBJECTIVES • Estimate the numbers of individuals in Canada with selected health conditions, characteristics, exposures • Estimate the distribution and distributional patterns of selected diseases, risk factors and protective characteristics • Assess the validity of prevalence estimates based on self- and proxy-reported information • Monitor trends based to the extent possible with available historical data

  8. CHMS OBJECTIVES • Ascertain relationships among risk factors, protection practices, and health status • Explore emerging public health issues and new measurement technologies • Collect a nationally representative sample of genetic material and other covariates for future genetic research • Potential platform and infrastructure for ongoing physical measures surveys and add-on studies • Share our experience with others

  12. Select a sampling frame Select clusters Set stand schedule; advanced stand preparation & public relations Select households Contact household Select respondent Informed consent Clinic measures Book in-home interview In-home interview & book clinic visit

  13. CHMS SITES 2007-2008 Municipality of Clarington, Ontario Collection dates:March 20–May 16, 2007

  14. CONSENT • Physical measuresTo participate in the physical measure tests, including providing samples of blood and urine • Lab reportTo receive a copy of the Report of Laboratory Tests • Reportable diseasesTo allow Statistics Canada to test blood for hepatitis B and C viruses and to contact respondent, as well as provincial authorities, if results are positive • BiostorageTo allow the storage of blood and urine for use in future health studies Reconsent children when they reach age 14 • DNA storageTo allow the storage of DNA for use in future health studies • Youth assentFor respondents under 14, to assent to take part in the survey

  15. QUESTIONNAIRE CONTENT • Health Status • General Health, Sleep, Height and Weight, Weight Change, Health Utility Index, Chronic Conditions, Hepatitis, Family Medical History, Oral Health Status, Phlegm, Pregnancy, Birth, Breastfeeding Information • Nutrition and Food • Grain, Fruit and Vegetable Consumption, Meat and Fish, Dietary Fat, Salt, Water and Soft Drink, Milk and Dairy Products • Medication Use • Medications, Other Health Products and Herbal Remedies • Health Behaviours • Physical Activities, Sedentary Activities, Smoking, Alcohol Use, Illicit Drug Use, Sexual Behaviour, Maternal Breast-feeding, Strengths and Difficulties • Environmental Factors • Exposure to Second-Hand Smoke, Sun Exposure, Housing Characteristics, Hobbies, Grooming Product Use • Socio-Economic Information • Socio-Demographic Characteristics, Education, Labour Force Activity, Income

  16. SITE REQUIREMENTSFOR TRAILERS • Location central to sample area • Minimum 60 ft. by 50 ft. to accommodate the trailers once parked • Electrical, water and telecommunications hook-ups nearby • Parking and/or public transit access • Contribution in kind for space and parking

  17. STAFFING • 1 mobile team • 7.5 “sites” per year • 20 measurement staff (manager, 2 Senior HMS, 4 HMS, 4 lab techs, 4 clinic coordinators, 2 dentists, 2 dental recorders, 1 site logistics officer) • 10 interview staff (plus manager) • Central support for • Advance arrangements • Public relations • Technical support • Training and retraining
