Abstract

Background: The world's population is not only growing but also ageing, and healthcare systems should adapt to the needs of an ageing population. Until now, there has been no clear definition of a preventive pathway with the aim of improving lifestyles and promoting healthy and active ageing. The present systematic review aims to provide evidence to support the development of effective ways of delivering preventive pathways for healthy ageing. Methods: Several databases were searched, i.e., MEDLINE, COCHRANE, CINAHL, and PsycINFO, by using specific inclusion criteria, such as elderly population (i.e., subjects aged 65 years and older), preventive interventions for healthy ageing, studies with or without control groups, and effectiveness and methodological structure of the prevention pathway. The risk of bias was assessed by using the Joanna Briggs Institute and mixed methods appraisal tools. Results: A total of 9998 studies were identified after the removal of duplicates, and after screening title, abstracts, and full text, 14 studies were finally included. All the prevention pathways described are based on physical activity (PA) programmes, dietary interventions, and cognitive and mental health. The professional figures involved in the pathways were experts in prevention and health promotion, like family and community nurses, kinesiologists, and experts in stress management. The majority of the preventive pathways were implemented in primary care and community settings. Conclusions: Our systematic review provides evidence for developing an effective preventive healthy ageing pathway through tailored PA, diet, and cognitive health interventions. This co-designed approach should involve a multidisciplinary expert team and be implemented in primary care and community settings to improve psycho-physical health and longevity.

健康老龄化的预防途径:系统文献综述。
背景:世界人口不仅在增长,而且在老龄化,卫生保健系统应该适应人口老龄化的需要。到目前为止,还没有明确定义旨在改善生活方式和促进健康和积极老龄化的预防途径。本系统综述的目的是提供证据,以支持开发有效的方法,为健康老龄化提供预防途径。方法:检索MEDLINE、COCHRANE、CINAHL、PsycINFO等数据库,采用特定的纳入标准,如老年人群(即65岁及以上)、健康老龄化的预防干预措施、有无对照组的研究、预防途径的有效性和方法结构。偏倚风险评估采用乔安娜布里格斯研究所和混合方法评估工具。结果:剔除重复项后,共纳入9998项研究,在筛选标题、摘要和全文后,最终纳入14项研究。所描述的所有预防途径都基于身体活动(PA)规划、饮食干预以及认知和心理健康。参与这些途径的专业人士是预防和促进健康方面的专家,如家庭和社区护士、运动学家和压力管理方面的专家。大多数预防途径是在初级保健和社区环境中实施的。结论:我们的系统综述为通过定制PA、饮食和认知健康干预开发有效的预防健康老龄化途径提供了证据。这种共同设计的方法应包括一个多学科专家小组,并在初级保健和社区环境中实施,以改善身心健康和长寿。
