Abstract

This Chapter aims to calculate the students’ drop-out rates caused by various diseases and make the comparison between the drop-out rates of primary and secondary schools (χ2 test) and to understand the current situation of drop-out due to diseases in key primary and secondary schools of Lubei district of Tangshan city from 2003 to 2008. The results show that mental illness led to the lowest drop-out rate of students, while cardiovascular disease led to the highest. And drop-out rates caused by various diseases was lower than 5‰ in total. There were no significant differences between the drop-out rates of primary and secondary schools. The disease spectrum in children and adolescents has changed, and cardiovascular disease has replaced infectious disease to be the main disease, causing students to drop-out. So it is imperative to strengthen the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease.
