项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We know little about how refugees and other types of immigrants respond to the shock of subsequent displacement and other disruptions following a disaster in their destination country. Comprehensive health data collected just weeks before Hurricane Katrina struck for a Vietnamese immigrant sample living predominantly in the heavily-flooded lower ninth ward of New Orleans possess extraordinary potential as baseline measures for investigating how immigrants fare after such disasters. The overall objective of the study is to assess the medium term (4-5 years) effects of a natural disaster upon the health of a recent immigrant population by employing a wide range of physical and mental health measures in a longitudinal research design. This will be accomplished by collecting a subsequent round of health data for the original cohort of first-generation working age Vietnamese-American New Orleanians who were surveyed during the period May - July of 2005 (T0), just prior to Hurricane Katrina, as part of a separate NIH small grant focusing on the health and well-being of Vietnamese immigrants. Two comprehensive health re-assessments of this cohort taken at 1 year (T1) and 2-years (T2) post-disaster are already complete. The subsequent round for the research proposed here would occur 5 years post-disaster, during the fall of 2010 (T5). These longitudinal health survey data are supplemented with extensive qualitative in- depth (n=48) and key-informant (n=20) interviews. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: VanLandingham, Mark Jennings Public health significance: This project provides the only opportunity for tracking the health of New Orleans' largest immigrant population post-Katrina using pre and post-event population-based data. This information is essential for assessing the future mental and physical health needs of this population as they move forward post-Katrina.

描述（由申请人提供）：我们对难民和其他类型的移民如何应对其目的地国家灾难后随后的流离失所和其他干扰的冲击。在卡特里娜飓风袭击越南移民样本前几周收集的综合健康数据主要生活在新奥尔良的贫民区下九区，具有非凡的潜力，作为研究灾难后移民的基准措施。该研究的总体目的是通过在纵向研究设计中采用各种身心健康措施来评估自然灾害对最近移民人群健康的中期影响（4 - 5年）。这将通过收集随后的一轮健康数据来完成第一代工作年龄段的越南裔美国人新奥尔良人，这些新奥尔良在2005年5月至7月（T0）进行了调查，就在卡特里娜飓风之前，作为越野飓风之前的一部分，作为单独的NIH小型赠款的一部分。该队列在1年（T1）和2年（T2）后进行了两次全面的健康重新评估已经完成。此处提出的研究的随后一轮将在2010年秋天（T5）发生后5年发生。这些纵向健康调查数据补充了广泛的定性深度（n = 48）和密钥信息（n = 20）访谈。公共卫生相关性：马克·詹宁斯（Mark Jennings）公共卫生的意义：该项目提供了使用基于事实前和后人口后的数据来跟踪卡特里娜飓风后新奥尔良移民人口的唯一机会。这些信息对于评估该人群的未来心理和身体健康需求至关重要，因为他们继续前进后卡特里娜飓风。
