Abstract:

The article is devoted to the actual problem of social services for elderly citizens at home. The whole social service system requires modernization based on the principles of providing social services to form motivation for active longevity and to develop social interaction of the elderly. The article deals with the issues of socialization of older people, its features, objective and subjective factors, the opinions of scientists on the factors, typology of socialization. There are presented the main problems of elderly people receiving services of social service institutions in the Russian Federation, identified on the basis of statistical data. There are outlined directions of the State strategy for development of the system of social services for older generation, improvement of their quality of life and active longevity under the conditions of socio-economic crisis. The author uses the results of own sociological survey of408 elderly respondents receiving social services in the social service institutions for the elderly. The importance of the services related to maintaining healthy and socially active longevity, organization of life and leisure, constructive interaction with relatives, for successful socialization of elderly people is shown. It is established that the most intensive socialization occurs in the process of providing social and socio-medical services. The dominant setting of elderly people is preservation of health; at the same time, it is the state of health that mostly determines the success of socialization of the elderly. For their active and healthy longevity elderly people prefer primarily cultural, educational, sports activities. However, many rely on the support of social service organizations.

Abstract:

Dyslipidemia as a risk factor in the elderly and its influence on morbidity and mortality remains a topic, at least, controversial for this population range. Statins, due to their LDL-c reducing effect, can improve other conditions that contribute to the morbidity and mortality of elderly patients. These pleitropic effects are of vital importance in the anti-atherosclerotic effect of statins. Pleitropic properties may also be involved in the non-cardiovascular benefits of statins, recently described. The similarity of pathological processes between middle-aged individuals and elderly people over 65 years of age, together with epidemiological data, confer that high cholesterol levels lead to a high risk in the elderly. Angiographic studies show that, even with advanced circulatory disease, the elderly respond to cholesterol-reducing therapy, with reduced risk. Dyslipidemia plays a key role in the progression of coronary artery disease and is an important predictor of coronary artery disease related events in elderly individuals. Statins are widely accepted as effective therapy for secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease. Although studies are limited, such benefits should also be extended to elderly patients. Statins are widely accepted as effective therapy for secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease. Although studies are limited, such benefits should also be extended to elderly patients. Taking into account the spectacular growth of the population over 65 years of age, including the increased longevity and knowing that if the current conditions of eating error, physical inactivity and inadequate treatment are modified, statin therapy undoubtedly represents a highly positive influence on the survival of this population group described.

Abstract:

Background: Aging is an inevitable process which has to take place at any costand is experienced by all of us, as a true reality of life. So, this stage of life; is quite pleasurablefor some elderly people whereas for some it becomes miserable. They become more fragileand prone towards diseases which greatly impact their health and limits activities of daily living.This decline increases day by day and becomes a cause of death. Objectives of Study: Toevaluate the relationship of physical activity on quality of life of elderly people. To determinewhether how many of them are still active and to find the reasons that makes an elderly personresponsible for being active or inactive which directly impacts the quality of life of an individual.Design: A Descriptive Cross Sectional survey. Period: It was 6 months of duration from January2014 till June 2014. Setting: A Descriptive Cross Sectional survey was conducted in elderlypopulation. This study was conducted from elderly people living in Rawalpindi, Islamabad.For these OPDs of the hospitals of Rawalpindi, Islamabad had been visited. Methods: Thesample size was 700 elderly individuals including males & females of ages 65 years & above.A structured questionnaire was designed and finalized after peer review. This questionnairewas “The Lawton Instrumental Activities of daily living Scale” that consisted of 15 questions,out of which 7 were close ended questions & 8 questions taken from the scale. Then, thedata had been be analyzed on SPSS-20 software. Results: The results of Lawton’s scale(which measures the level of effectiveness of physical activity) show that out of 700 total elderlypopulations, 564(80.5%) participants are physically active whereas 136 (19.4%) participants arethe ones who are not at all active. Among elderly population of 439 male participant 283(64.4%)of them are active that is they achieved the score 5/5 which is maximum independent scoreas described by Lawton for males. Whereas out of 261female participants 84 (32.2%) of themare independent and active as their score is 8/8. The result regarding diseases of our geriatricpopulation show that 200 (28.6%) of them are the ones having no disease at all. Whereas inthe case of diseased population, 119 (17%) of them are having cardiovascular & Hypertension,128 (18%) among them have the diseases present in combination of two. 76 (10.9%) amongthem are having Arthritis, which cannot be ignored. Conclusion: Physical activity has shownto have extremely positive benefits on health, mind, body & quality of life of an individual. Thesame implies with the elderly population because physical activity is a very powerful tool todelay the degenerative process which inevitably take place in the body. As the process ofaging is delayed, it produces many beneficial effects on almost all the systems of the body.Physical activity is proved to be extremely cardio protective in elders. Delay the disease process& protect them against many harmful effects of aging which would otherwise make elderly bedstrickenfrom the very beginning of aging process in geriatric population.

Abstract:

Nutrition is emerging as a key factor in promoting healthy lifestyles in the growing elderly population across Europe. In this study, we examined the non-animal-derived food source consumption among the elderly European population to evaluate the actual contributions of these foods to the diet of the elders. We gathered 21 studies conducted in 17 European countries to evaluate the fruit, vegetable, and legume (along with their derived products) consumption among the elderly (>65 years) population. Foods’ nutritional values were calculated and compared to the recommended intakes. A Bayesian multilevel hierarchical analysis was conducted to estimate the caloric intake of food categories and to compare the elderly and general adult populations. Although the lowest consumption was generally associated with the lowest nutrient and fiber intake, the reverse was not always the case. Concerning the general adult population, no differences in the related caloric intake of elders were noticed. Differences were instead evident when foods were divided into subclasses. Elderly populations consume fruit and fruit products, but they drink less fruit and vegetable juices and nectars. In conclusion, elderlies’ fruit and vegetable consumption showed a peculiar pattern with respect to the general adult population, whose recognition could be helpful to address tailored policies. Constantly updated studies, including all the lifespan ages, are warranted to design tailored effective public health interventions.

Abstract:

Background: Old age or elderly is the final stage of the normal life span. The elderly population is facing many health problems such as physical, mental, psychological & social etc. Factors like loneliness, low self-esteem, social isolation, quality of life and several others negatively affect elderly population and increase the risk of various health problems in elderly people. Aim: This study aims to assess loneliness among elderly population and to examine possible correlations with associated demographic, social and health factors. Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted, in which 200 elderly from Sirmour participated and the subjects were selected using total enumeration sampling technique. For the data collection the UCLA loneliness 20-item scale was used as well as a questionnaire with questions about demographic, social and health factors and the data was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics in SPSS. Results: Present study results reveals 127(63.5%) of elderly has mild level of loneliness, 44(22.0%) of them has moderate level of loneliness whereas 29(14.5%) has severe level of loneliness and no significant association was found between the level of loneliness & demographic variable. Conclusion: Results show that no significant association is present between the loneliness with demographic variable. Keywords: Loneliness, UCLA Scale.

Abstract:

On the theoretical basis of the "generational economy" the article describes the "model of overlapping generations" and "life cycle model" as the cause of the existence of intergenerational transfers. The classification of approaches to their study is carried out. Based on the exchange model (the concept of childbearing as a long-term investment in future transfers from adult children to elderly parents) and the theory of substitutions (crowding out private transfers by public social systems), the "elderly security hypothesis" is highlighted as a possible socio-economic reason for the demographic transition. Based on the works of A. Cigno, a theoretical review of this theory is made using the concepts of ^substitution effect» and «free rider effect». According to the works of R. Fenge and B. Scheubel, the "income effect" and "price effect" are defined as the key parameters for testing this hypothesis. An overview of the existing scientific and practical works on the topic of research is made, highlighting methods and results on the following examples: Italy after World War II, Germany at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, Brazil in 1991-2000, Hungary in 19502006, 34 OECD countries in the 1990s and the consolidated data for 121 countries at present. The author has carried out his own empirical test of the «hypothesis of elderly security» in the countries of the world on the basis of UN and OECD statistics. Coverage, social security spending, replacement rate, mandatory premium rate, and an increased risk of poverty among older people support the safe aging theory of upward intergenerational transfers from children to parents. But the internal rate of return of pension systems and the average income of older people support the competing hypothesis of top-down intergenerational transfers from parent to child. It is concluded that, with a relatively low standard of living of population, intergenerational transfers go from children to parents, but when a certain level of national welfare is reached, the movement of transfers changes to the opposite direction.

Full text

Abstract:

Over the last two decades social vulnerability has emerged as a major area of study, with increasing attention to the study of vulnerable populations. Generally, the elderly are among the most vulnerable members of any society, and widespread population aging has led to greater focus on elderly vulnerability. However, the absence of a valid and practical measure constrains the ability of policy-makers to address this issue in a comprehensive way. This study developed a composite indicator, The Elderly Social Vulnerability Index (ESVI), and used it to undertake a comparative analysis of the availability of support for elderly Jamaicans based on their access to human, material and social resources. The results of the ESVI indicated that while the elderly are more vulnerable overall, certain segments of the population appear to be at greater risk. Females had consistently lower scores than males, and the oldest-old had the highest scores of all groups of older persons. Vulnerability scores also varied according to place of residence, with more rural parishes having higher scores than their urban counterparts. These findings support the political economy framework which locates disadvantage in old age within political and ideological structures. The findings also point to the pervasiveness and persistence of gender inequality as argued by feminist theories of aging. Based on the results of the study it is clear that there is a need for policies that target specific population segments, in addition to universal policies that could make the experience of old age less challenging for the majority of older persons. Overall, the ESVI has displayed usefulness as a tool for theoretical analysis and demonstrated its potential as a policy instrument to assist decision-makers in determining where to target their efforts as they seek to address the issue of social vulnerability in old age. Data for this study came from the 2001 population and housing census of Jamaica, with multiple imputation for missing data. The index was derived from the linear aggregation of three equally weighted domains, comprised of eleven unweighted indicators which were normalized using z-scores. Indicators were selected based on theoretical relevance and data availability.

Abstract:

The actual fluid intake of forty (40) residents of a nursing home was determined by an analysis of detailed three-day food and fluid intake records obtained by direct observation. Intake was compared to an established standard to determine the adequacy of fluid intake for this population. Subjects were grouped in two groups according to age (<85 years and >85 years) to determine whether age influenced fluid intake. In addition, data such as number and frequency of medications and dependency factors, such as ability to feed self, ability to communicate, ability to move and ability to make decisions, were collected and correlated.There was no significant difference between actual fluid intake and required fluid intake for the population a whole and for the two age groups. However, there were individuals who had very low fluid intakes suggesting other factors which influence fluid intake. There were positive correlations between fluid obtained from non meal feedings and frequency of medication delivery and number of medications delivered during a 24 hour period. In addition, there were positive correlations among the dependency factors. There was no correlation among any of the dependency factors and fluid intake for the group as a whole or for the two age groups.It was concluded from this study that this population of elderly nursing home residents obtained adequate fluid. Medication frequency and number appeared to influence the amount of fluid that a resident might obtain during non meal feedings. However, as a subject became more dependent, this factor did not affect the fluid intake of this population.

Objectives: To determine if delivery of medications to an independent living facility increases patient adherence. Methods: Retrospective review of patient pharmacy refill records was completed using a data extraction form in order to calculate a number of days deviation from a projected refill date based on days supply. Data on the use of express pay, auto fill, and delivery service and payment type was collected as well as age and gender. Residents of The Fountains independent living facility were eligible to be included in this study if they had complete data in the pharmacy refill records for at least one scheduled maintenance medication taken for a continuous, three-month period. Results: There were 21 subjects in the delivery group and 18 in the pick-up group. Both groups were primarily women (76.2 percent and 61.1 percent respectively). Age was also similar (85.8 and 83.8, p=0.285). The delivery group had significantly more maintenance medications than the pick-up group (mean=2.8, SD=1.1 and mean=1.7, SD=1.1 respectively). Seven of the nine time deviations were greater for the pick-up group than for the delivery group (p= 0.09 for sign test). Implications: It appears that a delivery service can increase adherence, particularly in a population of advanced age.

Class of 2008 Abstract
Objectives: Use of expired and unused prescription medication in the elderly population is not clearly defined. Improper use of medication can lead to serious adverse drug events and poor health outcomes. More information on the actual use of expired and unused medications in the elderly population may help in determining the need for future education of this population on this subject. Methods: A total of 72 people 65 years or older completed an anonymous survey about use of expired and unused medication. The completed survey was returned by mail. The data was extracted into a database and analyzed using chi-squared, averages, and percentages. Results: The data showed that there was no significant difference between the age groups with respect to willingness to share medications with family or friends. The population was predominantly white, and most respondents had completed some level of college education. The results showed 69.4% of respondents would share at least one category of medication with a friend or family member. 56.9% of respondents would share at least one category of medication with a friend, and 66.7% would share at least one with a family member (p=0.23). Respondents indicated they would take 23.4% of the medications listed as being in their possession if they were expired and would only share only 6.9% of the listed medications with a friend or family member. Conclusions: This data demonstrated that this population was reluctant to share medications they actually possessed, but were theoretically willing to share some categories of medications. More research needs to be done to assess use of expired medications and medication sharing in all populations, and especially in the elderly population.

Abstract:

In recent years, the world has been undergoing a drastic change in its age demographic due to an off balance caused by decreasing birth rates and an increase in the elderly population [1]. While 8.5% of the global population were elders in 2015, studies show that this number will hit 17% by 2050. This project will focus on the efficiency of automatic fall detection and contribute to the evolution of fall protection [2], both within elders and the general population. Through our conducted work, we have developed a wearable device capable of efficient fall detection and transmission.

Abstract:

Background/Purpose: Post-operative delirium leads to significant morbidity in elderly patients, yet there is no regimen to prevent POD. Opioid use in the elderly surgical population is of the most significant risk factors for developing POD. The purpose of this scoping review is to recognize that Dexmedetomidine mitigates cognitive dysfunction secondary to acute pain and the use of narcotic analgesia by decreasing the amount of norepinephrine (an excitatory neurotransmitter) released during times of stress. This mechanism of action also provides analgesia through decreased perception and modulation of pain. Methods: The authors developed eligibility criteria for inclusion of articles and performed a systematic search of several databases. Each of the authors initially selected five articles for inclusion in the scoping review. We created annotated literature tables for easy screening by co-authors. After reviewing the annotated literature table four articles were excluded, leaving 11 articles for inclusion in the scoping review. There were six level I meta-analysis/systematic reviews, four level II randomized clinical trials, and one level IV qualitative research article. Next, we created a data-charting form on Microsoft Word for extraction of data items and synthesis of results. Results: Two of the studies found no significant difference in POD between dexmedetomidine groups and control groups. The nine remaining studies noted decreases in the rate, duration, and risk of POD in the groups receiving dexmedetomidine either intraoperatively or postoperatively. Multiple studies found secondary benefits in addition to decreased POD, such as a reduction of tachycardia, hypertension, stroke, hypoxemia, and narcotic use. One study, however, found that the incidence of hypotension and bradycardia were increased among the elderly population. Implications for Nursing Practice: Surgery is a tremendous stressor in any age group, but especially the elderly population. It has been shown postoperative delirium occurs in 17-61% of major surgery procedures with 30-40% of the cases assumed to be preventable. Opioid administration in the elderly surgical population is one of the most significant risk factors for developing POD. With anesthesia practice already leaning towards opioid-free and opioid-limited anesthetic, the incorporation of dexmedetomidine could prove to be a valuable resource in both reducing opioid use and POD in the elderly surgical population. Although more research is needed, the current evidence is promising.
