Abstract
Padovi predstavljaju jedan od vodećih uzroka morbiditeta i mortaliteta kod osoba starije životne dobi. Procjenjuje se da 30-40% osoba iznad 65 godina doživi najmanje jedan pad godišnje. Istraživanja navode kako više od 30% padova zahtijeva medicinsku pomoć, a skoro 70% njih ostavlja određenu razinu onesposobljenosti. Cilj istraživanja je procijeniti učestalost padova i straha od padova kod osoba starije životne dobi te istražiti povezanost padova i straha od padova s funkcionalnim sposobnostima, indeksom tjelesne mase (BMI) i godinama života osoba starije životne dobi. Za izradu istraživanja korišten je Time up and go test (TUG), procjena rizika od padova prema različitim autorima, COOP/WONCA upitnik i upitnik od UHCE projekta. Podatci su obrađeni deskriptivnom i neparametrijskom statistikom. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 65 ispitanika, prosječne dobi od 69,83 (±7,3) godina, prosječnog BMI-a 26,27 (±3,5) kg/m2 i prosječnog TUG testa od 8,36 (±1,0) s. Strah od padova bio je prisutan kod 50% (N=32), a 23,1% (N=15) navodi pad u posljednjih 12 mjeseci. Padovi i strah od padova se najviše javljaju u dobnoj skupini iznad 71 godine. Strah od padova statistički značajno se više javlja kod ispitanika koji navode probleme u svakodnevnom životu koji su povezani s otežanim hodom, problemima s ravnotežom, oslabljenim vidom, višim indeksom tjelesne mase, umjerenim do jakim osjećajem boli u svakodnevnom životu, ako se ispitanici nalaze u povećanom riziku od padova i nisu u bračnoj zajednici, što je u skladu s objavljenom literaturom. Padovi se značajno više javljaju kod osoba koje navode osjećaj boli, umjerenog do jakog intenziteta u svakodnevnom životu.
Abstract (english)
Falls represent one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality among older adults. It is estimated that every year 30-40% of people over the age of 65 experience at least one fall. Studies indicate that more than 30% of falls require medical attention and almost 70% leave a certain level of disability. The aim of the study is to assess the incidence of falls and fear of falling among older adults, as well as investigate the connection of falls and fear of falling with functional abilities, body mass index (BMI) and age. The Time up and Go test (TUG), the assessment of the risk of falling, according to different authors, the COOP/WONCA questionnaire and the UHCE project questionnaire were used to write the research. The data were processed with descriptive and non-parametric statistics. The study included 65 subjects with an average age of 69,83 (±7,3) years, BMI of 26,27 (±3,5) kg /m2 and TUG test of 8,36 (±1,0) s. 50% (N=32) subjects reported fear of falling and 23,1% (N=15) reported a fall in the last 12 months. The highest incidence was present in the age group above 71 years. Fear of the fall is more common in subjects who report problems in everyday life that are associated with walking and balance problems, impaired vision, higher BMI, as well as moderate to high-intensity pain in everyday life, increased risk of falling and marriage status. The falls occur more commonly in subjects who report moderate to high-intensity pain in everyday life.
