Age-adjusted to the 2000 U.S. standard population.

*Use caution in interpreting; the estimate has a coefficient of variation >30% and is therefore deemed unreliable by Utah Department of Health and Human Services standards.

Data Sources

Data Interpretation Issues

Questions Text: During the past 30 days, for about how many days did poor physical or mental health keep you from doing your usual activities, such as self-care, work, or recreation?

Definition

During the past 30 days, for about how many days did poor physical or mental health keep you from doing your usual activities, such as self-care, work, or recreation?

Numerator

Number of adults who reported poor physical or mental health in the past 30 days (7+ days in the past 30 days)

Denominator

Total number of survey respondents excluding those with missing, 'Don't know/Not sure' and 'Refused' responses.

How Are We Doing?

In 2022, approximately 22.0% (crude rate) of Utah adults reported that their poor mental or physical health limited their usual activities in the past 30 days. The highest rate was found among 18-24 year old females (30.5%). The lowest rate was found among 45-54 year old males (15.2%).

How Do We Compare With the U.S.?

The age-adjusted percentage of Utah adults who reported any limitation in activities has been slightly lower than the U.S. rate over the years. In 2022, 22.1% (20.8-23.5%) of adults in Utah reported some activity limitation and 25.0% (24.7-25.4%) of adults in the U.S. reported activity limitation.
