Abstract:

To elaborate an algorithm for the early diagnosis and prevention of age-related disorders in elderly and senile people living in the European North of Russia, 82 patients were examined at an Arkhangelsk polyclinic. The age of 67 (81.71%) and 15 (18.29%) of the surveyed was 60—74 and 75 years and older, respectively. There were 69 (84.15%) women and 13 (15.85%) men. The following procedures: the Geriatric Depression Scale, the Mini-Mental State Examination, the Clock Drawing Test, and the «Age is not a hindrance» questionnaire, were used. Among the elderly and senile patients, every two patients were found to have signs of age-related disorders; those who were 60 to 74 (44.78%) and over 75 (60%) years of age. The most common geriatric manifestations were memory problems, hearing or vision impairment, and mood decline in elderly patients; urinary incontinence, memory problems, hearing or vision impairment, and mood decline in senile ones. The level of aging is associated with a lower level of patient education. Every three (35.37%) surveyed elderly and senile patients had probable signs of depression; a significantly higher level of depression was noted in the senile age group. Two thirds of those who were over 60 years of age showed probable signs of cognitive impairment. According to testing procedures, there may be pre-dementia cognitive impairment in more than half of the respondents and impairment at the level of dementia in every 10 patents. The elaborated algorithm for the early diagnosis and prevention of age-related disorders in elderly and senile individuals enables identification of their main symptoms and adequate primary and secondary prevention. The application of this algorithm is aimed at increasing the duration and quality of life in elderly and senile people.
