Abstract

Background: Integrating and advancing health equity are a core tenant of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's mission. Comprehensive frameworks that clearly conceptualise equity are needed to prioritise and inform the advancement of health equity within public health.

Methods: To help meet this need, the investigative team developed The Continuum of Health Equity Practice & Science (The Continuum). The Continuum was developed in two phases: (1) an initial survey distributed to internal CDC Division of Injury Prevention investigators, and (2) a review of public health frameworks and the current health equity evidence base.

Results: The Continuum is a framework that includes seven key components of health equity and ultimately aims to guide public health practice and research towards the advancement of health equity. To illustrate its usefulness, we provide an example using adolescent suicide for each component of The Continuum and demonstrate how this may inform efforts to advance health equity.

Conclusion: With a specific focus on conceptualising health equity and addressing systemic inequities, The Continuum may be used to inform efforts to advance equity in injury prevention and beyond.

健康公平实践和科学的连续性：预防伤害的健康公平研究和实践的概念化。

背景：整合和促进健康公平是疾病控制和预防中心的核心使命。需要有明确概念化公平的综合框架，以便在公共卫生领域优先考虑和推进健康公平：为了满足这一需求，调查小组开发了 "健康公平实践与科学连续体"（The Continuum of Health Equity Practice & Science）。该连续体的开发分为两个阶段：(1) 向疾病预防控制中心伤害预防部的内部调查人员发放初步调查问卷；(2) 对公共卫生框架和当前的健康公平证据库进行审查：结果："连续性 "是一个包括健康公平七个关键组成部分的框架，其最终目的是指导公共卫生实践和研究，以促进健康公平。为了说明该框架的实用性，我们以青少年自杀为例，介绍了 "连续统一体 "的各个组成部分，并展示了该框架如何为促进健康公平的工作提供信息：结论："连续统一体 "特别注重健康公平的概念化和解决系统性不公平问题，可用于指导伤害预防及其他方面的公平工作。
