• W2885440112 abstract "INTRODUCTION :All over the world the life expectation of people is increasing. PopulationAgeing is the result of demographic transition with reduction in fertility leading toDecline in the proportion of young in the population and at the same time there isIncreasing longevity. It indicates the triumph of public health and advancement ofMedical technology; this demographic transition is under way throughout the world.Unfortunately, the rapidity of population ageing is expected to continue to outpaceSocial and economical development in developing countries particularly inCountries like India.Today, worldwide, there are some 600 million persons aged 60 and over;This total will double by 2025 and will reach virtually two billion by 2050 when thereWill be more people aged 60 and over than children under the age of 15.From a mere 5.1% in 1901, the elderly will become 21% of the populationBy the year 2050, estimates a United Nations projection. Most of them will be livingIn developing countries which are often least prepared to meet the challenges ofRapidly ageing societies. In other words WHO says “Developing countries willBecome old before they become rich while industrialized countries became richWhile they were growing old.”2. OBJECTIVES1. To assess the extent of physical disabilities, the morbidity load and unmet needs in physical disabilities for care of Elderly in a rural community.2. To identify the predictors of unmet needs in physical disabilities of elderly so that they can act as surrogate markers to identify those in need of the services.CONCLUSIONS :1. Since there is high morbidity load among the rural elderly, hence it isrecommended that we need to provide them with elderly-friendlyprimary geriatric care services.2. Since it is also clear that large number of needs of the disabled areunmet, there is a need for a new policy initiative focusing onstrengthening of Community Based Rehabilitation Services (Familyoriented programs, day care centers), support for family caregivers andsocial support interventions.3. Greater, targeted efforts are needed to identify at-risk elderly peopleliving in the community and to provide services (e.g. home care,community based rehabilitation services) that may reduce the burdenof unmet need.4. There were large number of undiagnosed diseases (Hypertension,Cataract etc..) and so there is a need for starting simple screeningprograms among the elderly like blood pressure measurement, eyecamp for cataract screening, simple blood investigations to detectdiabetes and anemia and oral cavity examination-for detection of precancerouslesion in mouth, taking pap smear -a simple procedure ofdetecting early cancer cervix..5. Availability of tools like the Stanford Health Assessment Questionnairein all the major Indian languages to identify functional disability andunmet needs will provide an opportunity to do a comparable study indifferent parts of India.6. This study identified broad socio-demographic and health statusfactors which could act as surrogate markers (predictors of unmetneeds) which are simple enough to be used by Primary care workers.Data thus generated can then be used to plan and provide quality careservices to the rural elderly who need it most." @default.
