| Summary: | Abstract The Bangkoknoi Model Project (BANMOP)is a prospective cohort project and is guided by context-specific health databases to promote the sustainable health and well-being of people living in the Bangkoknoi district. The BANMOP emphasized community engagement via electronic databases. Data were collected from households in the Bangkoknoi district during November 2017 to January 2019. All voluntary participants were included and data were collected via mobile application, a web-based platform, and by face-to-face interviews with well-trained volunteers who were mainly health professionals. Data were categorized by age groups: 0–5, 6–14, 15–21, 22–59, > 60 years old, included both individuals and families in five categories: health, environment & disaster, economics, social, and safety. A total of 22,510 participants from 42 Bangkoknoi communities represented 17% of the total population of the Bangkoknoi district. 44% of the participants reported having physical health problems. Noncommunicable diseases were dominated by physical health problems as age progressed. Overall, hypertension was the most prevalent health problem at 10.8% followed by allergic diseases (7.6%), diabetes mellitus (5.2%), and dyslipidemia (3.1%).Anxiety was the most common mental health disorder, and gender income disparity was an important issue. Although, 91.6% of participants satisfied with their home environment, but the crowded, cluttered, urban environment caused their dissatisfaction. 42% reported problems related to reproductive health such as teen pregnancy (16.7%), family planning and marriage guidance (12.7%), premature sexual transmitted diseases (9.0%) and infertility (3.8%). Subsequently, 20 sub-projects were established to promote the sustainable health and well-being of people in the Bangkoknoi district. BANMOP can provide not only context-specific health information, but also health-related issues that are often neglected. The community engagement and local data supplemented to NHES are needed for sustainable community-specific health policies and interventions. The information that newly discovered from BANMOP such as allergy in childhood and mental health problem needs to be further explored. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT06583694 (Retrospectively registered on September 4, 2024). |
