description Problem/Condition: Risk reduction is a major focus of the national health objectives for the year 2000. Progress toward several of these objectives can be evaluated by using data from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS). Year 2000 objective areas measurable by BRFSS data include those for overweight, lack of physical activity, smoking, safety belt use, and medical screening for breast and cervical cancer and elevated blood cholesterol. BRFSS data have been used to guide health promotion/disease prevention programs. Reporting Period: 1991. Description of System: BRFSS is a state-based random-digit-dialing telephone survey of noninstitutionalized adults (≥18 years of age); 47 states and the District of Columbia participated in BRFSS in 1991. Results: Some year 2000 objectives appear to be readily attainable for many states, whereas others do not. For example, among participating states, a median 57.8% (range = 45.6%–82.8%) of women ages ≥50 years reported having had both a clinical breast examination and a mammogram in the previous 2 years (year 2000 objective: ≥60%). In contrast, a median 37.3% (range = 22.1%–52.5%) of persons with annual family income

In contrast, a median 37.3% (range = 22.1%–52.5%) of persons with annual family income &lt;$20,000 reported that they did not engage in leisure-time physical activity—more than twice the year 2000 objective (≥17%). Interpretation: BRFSS data demonstrate substantial state-to-state variation in progress toward year 2000 objectives and highlight areas (e.g., lack of leisure-time physical activity) in which substantial progress remains to be made in most states. Action Taken: The BRFSS will continue to report data that relate to year 2000 health objectives. BRFSS data will enable states to monitor progress toward these objectives and develop health policies aimed at achieving them.</description><identifier>ISSN: 1546-0738</identifier><identifier>ISSN: 1545-8636</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1545-8636</identifier><identifier>PMID: 8413176</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>United States: Epidemiology Program Office, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Public Health Service, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services</publisher><subject><![CDATA[Adult ; Age ; Aged ; Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System ; Breast Neoplasms - prevention & control ; Cigarette smoking ; Exercise ; Female ; Health Behavior ; Health Promotion ; Hispanics ; Humans ; Hypercholesterolemia - prevention & control ; Life Style ; Male ; Mammography ; Manual safety belts ; Mass Screening - statistics & numerical data ; Median family income ; Middle Aged ; Obesity - epidemiology ; Overweight ; Population Surveillance ; Risk Factors ; Seat Belts - statistics & numerical data ; Smoking - epidemiology ; United States - epidemiology ; Uterine Cervical Neoplasms - prevention & control ; Vaginal Smears - statistics & numerical data ; Womens health]]></subject><ispartof>MMWR.
