Abstract

Background: The prevalence study of health conditions can help policy makers to document base policymaking. This study aimed to reveal the health status, including the prevalence of geriatric syndrome health conditions such as activity of daily livings, pain, and physical and mental health of older adults in Tehran province. Methods: This cross-sectional study was a telephone survey with older people ≥60 years old using a systematic random sampling of telephone numbers in Tehran province. The Persian version of the Katz' activity of daily living (ADL) and the Lawton's instrumental activity of daily living (IADL) questionnaires were used to evaluate the functional status. Pain, history of chronic diseases, continence, hospital admission, sensory problems, and self-perceived health (SPH) were asked by trained nurses or gerontologists thorough telephone interviews. Results: In this study, 1251 older adults with the mean age of 67.03±7.51 years have been recruited. About 64.50% (95% CI: 64.4-64.6) of them were totally independent according to ADL (female=60.02% and male=68.50%), and about 40.50% (95% CI: 40.4-40.5) were independent based on IADL domains (female=39.41% and male=41.80). The dependency rates in ADL increased with the aging of population. Joint pain was the most prevalent type of pains and near to 26.00% (95% CI: 64.4-64.6) of the participants suffered moderate joint pains. About 71.5% (95% CI: 71.4-71.5) of the participants were urinary continent (female=67.66% and male=76.06%), and 91.9% (95% CI: 91.9-92.0) had bowel control (female=91.47% and male=92.94%) and the prevalence of incontinence increased by advancing age. Only 26.70% (95% CI: 26.6-26.8) of the participants reported excellent and good levels of perceived health status (female=21.98% and male=31.48%) and about 26.2% (95% CI: 26.1-26.2) of them reported some degree of visual impairment. Conclusion: The results of the present study can provide a good view about the health profile of older adults, including pain, functional status, sphincter control, chronic diseases, sensory status, and SPH. Future studies should prioritize SPH as an important predictor of mortality rates.

老年人的自我认知健康和功能状况:德黑兰省老年人的电话生活方式调查
背景:健康状况的流行率研究有助于决策者制定基础政策。本研究旨在揭示德黑兰省老年人的健康状况,包括日常生活活动、疼痛和身心健康等老年综合征健康状况的患病率。方法:本横断面研究采用系统随机抽样的电话号码对德黑兰省≥60岁的老年人进行电话调查。采用波斯语版Katz日常生活活动量表(ADL)和Lawton日常生活工具活动量表(IADL)评估功能状态。疼痛、慢性疾病史、失禁、住院、感觉问题和自我感知健康(SPH)由训练有素的护士或老年学家进行电话访谈。结果:本研究共招募了1251名老年人,平均年龄67.03±7.51岁。约64.50% (95% CI: 64.4 ~ 64.6)的患者根据ADL完全独立(女性=60.02%,男性=68.50%),约40.50% (95% CI: 40.4 ~ 40.5)的患者根据IADL域完全独立(女性=39.41%,男性=41.80)。ADL的依赖率随人口老龄化而增加。关节疼痛是最常见的疼痛类型,接近26.00% (95% CI: 64.4-64.6)的参与者患有中度关节疼痛。约71.5% (95% CI: 71.4-71.5)的参与者尿失禁(女性=67.66%,男性=76.06%),91.9% (95% CI: 91.9-92.0)的参与者有肠道控制(女性=91.47%,男性=92.94%),尿失禁的患病率随着年龄的增长而增加。只有26.70% (95% CI: 26.6-26.8)的参与者报告了优秀和良好的感知健康状况(女性=21.98%,男性=31.48%),约26.2% (95% CI: 26.1-26.2)的参与者报告了某种程度的视力障碍。结论:本研究结果可以很好地了解老年人的健康状况,包括疼痛、功能状态、括约肌控制、慢性疾病、感觉状态和SPH。未来的研究应优先考虑SPH作为死亡率的重要预测因子。
