Abstract

Introduction. Elderly people are among the most important social groups in Russian society, remaining the least protected, socially and biologically vulnerable part of the population. The objective of the study is to rank and assess the risk factors and health status of older people. Materials and Methods. 40 elderly persons aged 60 to 87 years were examined. The average age was 71.2 ± 7.4 years. Clinical, audiometric, stabilometric, psychological examination, biochemical blood test, osteodensitometry, ultrasound examination were carried out. An assessment of the health-related quality of life and diet is given. Statistica software was used for statistical processing. V.10 Results. On average, 5.3 diseases were found to be detected per one older person. This indicates the polymorbidity of the pathology. At the same time, more than half of the examined persons were found to have combined vascular lesions (52.5%) with lesions of the vessels of the brain and heart, accompanied by impaired cholesterol metabolism. The analysis of the indicators of the quality of life scales in the elderly population made it possible to establish pronounced problems associated with physical and emotional health and the deficit in the intake of B vitamins and protein in the diet. Conclusion. The older persons differ due to polymorbidity pathology. The analysis of the indicators of the quality of life scales in the elderly allowed establishing the presence of pronounced problems associated with physical and emotional health. It demonstrates the presence of increased depletion of mental activity and fatigue, and the lack of activation processes, which may further affect the limitation of daily activities and reduce the health-related life quality.
