Some of which, 120 women (66.7%) participated, 152 (84.4%) had hypertension stage 2, 100 (55.6%) had just one visit, and 80 (44.4%) had more than one visit. Among 80 participants with more than one visit, 8 had achieved target blood pressure. There were 166 participants (92.2%) who received single antihypertensive agent (captopril was given the most), and 14 participants (7.8%) who received the combination of two antihypertensive agent (combination of captopril and HCT (hydrochlorothiazide)) were given the most).Conclusions: More than 75% of older adult with hypertension have stage 2 hypertension and are treated by single antihypertensive agent.

Abstract

Geriatric physiologically undergoes aging process that can cause decreasing cell functionand increasing risk of degenerative diseases caused by the accumulation of reactive oxygenspecies (ROS) in the body. Selenium (Se) is an antioxidant, which is needed for maintainingthe balance of ROS. The aim of this study was to observe the selenium-binding protein(SELENBP1) level in relation with the geriatric patients charcateristics including sex, age,body mass index (BMI), activity of daily living (ADL), instrumental activity of daily living(IADL), cognitive function, nutrition, depression, and insomnia status. The study usedcross-sectional quantitative descriptive study design on 14 geriatric patients in Geriatric OutpatientsClinics, at a hospital in Bandung. The data was obtained by interviewing the patientsand then blood samples were taken. The analysis of SELENBP1 was done using ELISA kit.The average level (SD) of SELENBP1 from all of the characteristics group was 2.68 (0.69)ng/ml. The highest SELENBP1 level was identified in female geriatric patients and followedby male and pre-obese groups. The lowest SELENBP1 level was identified in geriatric patientsaged 70-79 years.Keywords: elderly, SELENBP1, selenium.

Abstract

Background: Falls are common geriatric problems. The risk factors of falls are the intrinsic and extrinsic risk factors. Studies on falls are scarcely conducted in Indonesia, especially in Bandung. Therefore, this study was conducted to identify the intrinsic risk factors of falls among elderly.Methods: A descriptive study was carried out from August to October 2013 at the Geriatric Clinic of Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital Bandung. Fifty three participants were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria using consecutive sampling. The determined variables in this study were classification of the risk of falls, demographic profile, history of falls, disease, and medications. After the selection, the participants were tested by Timed up-and-go test (TUGT). Moreover, an interview and analysis of medical records were carried out to discover the risk factors of falls. The collected data were analyzed and presented in the form of percentages shown in tables.Results: From 53 patients, women (35.66%) were considered to have higher risk of fall than men (18.34%). The majority of patients (66%) with the risk of fall were from the age group 60–74 years. The major diseases suffered by patients were hypertension, osteoarthritis and diabetes mellitus. Drugs that were widely used were antihypertensive drugs; analgesic and antipyretic drugs and antidiabetic drugs.Conclusions: There are various intrinsic risk factors of falls in elderly and each of the elderly has more than one intrinsic risk factor of falls.

Abstract

The inability of families to care for their elderly causes them to place the elderly in the Panti Werdhas. The elderly who move to a Panti Werdha usually have difficulties to adapt the new surroundings that can affect their quality of life. The World Health Organization (WHO) developed instruments to measure quality of life, a multidimensional and cross-cultural approach,  namely WHO Quality of Life-BREF (WHOQOL-BREF) and WHO Quality of Life-OLD (WHOQOL-OLD). Both instruments have been translated into Indonesian language. The aim of the study was to analyze the differences in quality of life between the elderly who live in the Panti Werdhas and in the community. A cross-sectional analytic quantitative study was carried out  from October to November 2019 at 5 Panti Werdhas and 6 public health centers (Puskesmas) in Bandung City, West Java, Indonesia. The total number of respondents in the Panti Werdha and at the Puskesmas as many as 42 respondents. The selection of respondents in the Panti Werdhas used purposive sampling, whereas in the puskesmas used consecutive sampling. The Chi-square or Fisher's Exact test was used to analyze the respondent's characteristics and  the Mann-Whitney test was used to analyze differences in the quality of life.  This study discovered that respondents living in the Panti Werdhas were older, not married/divorced and less educated compared to respondents in the community. The quality of life of the elderly in Panti Werdhas was lower compared to the elderly in the community for all dimensions (p=≤0.05) except the dimensions of death and dying (p=0.741). It can be concluded that there are differences in the quality of life between the elderly who live in Panti Werdhas and in the community  except at the dimensions of death and dying.
