Although disparities in the burden of disease and illness experienced across major racial and ethnic groups in the United States (US), little is known about subgroups, including the Hmong population. This review sought to determine the current state of health disparities related to health promotion and disease prevention among Hmong adults from 1975 through 2015. Seventy-one descriptive (qualitative and quantitative) studies were reviewed. Most focused on two areas: (1) health status (mainly breast and cervical cancers) and (2) health-related behaviors. This literature review confirms the existence of health disparities related to health promotion and disease prevention in the Hmong adult population. Effective intervention relies on identifying these disparities. A possible explanation for these disparities is the lack of health data collected on subgroup populations, which includes the Hmong adult population. More research and more comprehensive health policies at the organizational level are needed to allow data to be collected on sub-group populations in order to better understand the social determinants that place the Hmong people at risk.
