Abstract

Aging causes significant physiological changes in the skin, mainly due to decreased cellular function, decreased regenerative capacity, and changes in the extracellular matrix. External factors such as UV radiation, unhealthy lifestyle choices, and inadequate skin care further aggravate facial skin aging. This screening activity uses the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Action) method, which includes planning, implementation, evaluation and corrective action. Facial skin health was assessed using a skin analysis tool, and participants were provided with education regarding preventive measures. This activity consisted of 127 participants (30 men and 97 women). It was found that the average wrinkle, roughness, moist, and UV damage were 26.3%; 24%; 61.4%; and 38.3%. A comprehensive approach including lifestyle modifications, topical treatments, and regular check-ups is essential to reduce the effects of aging and improve skin health in seniors.

Abstract

Pruritus, or itching, is a common symptom in seniors that has a significant impact on their quality of life. Primary skin disorders such as xerosis, atopic dermatitis, and scabies, as well as systemic diseases such as cancer, chronic renal failure, cholestasis, hyperthyroidism, diabetes mellitus, iron deficiency anemia, and certain medications, can cause this condition. Chronic pruritus, which is common in individuals over 60 years of age, can cause discomfort, sleep disturbances, and psychological stress. This activity uses the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) methodology to screen for pruritus intensity in the elderly in St. Anna. One individual (2.4%) reported mild pruritus, while 12 individuals (29.3%) reported severe pruritus. Routine assessment using the 12-PSS provides important information for managing pruritus in the elderly, meeting clinical and research needs, and improving patient care and quality of life.
