Supreme Council of Health Chronic Disease Risk Factor Surveillance Report 2012

Introduction (Key Objectives)

• Establish a surveillance system for Noncommunicable Disease (NCD) risk factors in Qatar.
• Monitor behavioral and biological risk factors contributing to hypertension, diabetes, obesity, etc.
• Guide prevention and control strategies

National Context (Qatarь 2013)

• Demographics: 1.5+ million population (96.3% literate), 95% urbanization
• Economy: High-income economy ($80,440 GNI/capita) with 45% GDP from oil/gas
• Health Indicators:
  • Crude death rate dropped from 1.88 (2001) to 1.15 (2011) per 1,000
  • Top NCD causes: Cardiovascular diseases (17.1/million), Cancer (7.3/million)

Methodology (2012 STEPS Survey)

• Sample Size: 2,496 Qatari adults (18-64 years)
• Weighting: Accounted for differential selection probabilities
• Key Innovations:
  • Combined WHO STEPS with local context
  • Validated questionnaires in Arabic language
• Surveillance Tool: Step-wise approach (Behavioral:Questionnaires; Physical:Scales; Biochemical:Point-of-care devices)

Key Findings

Behavioral Risks

• Tobacco: 31.9% male daily smokers; 50.4% exposed to environmental tobacco smoke
• Diet:
  • <5 servings fruits/vegetables: 91.1% population
  • Vegetable consumption: Average 1.4 daily servings (0.7-2.1/min/sex)
• Physical Activity:
  • Only 31.3% met recommended levels
  • Sedentary trend: Average 244.9 min/day

Biological Risks

• Obesity: 70.1% overweight (BMI≥25), 41.4% obese (BMI≥30)
• Hypertension: 32.9% prevalence (higher in women)
• Diabetes: 16.7% prevalence (higher than regional average)

Risk Factor Combinations

• High-risk profile: 50.6% had 3+ modifiable risks
• Age factor: Increased risk with age in all risk categories

Implications: Targeted interventions needed for hypertension, diet, and sedentary behaviors
