Падения – важная многофакторная проблема пожилых людей, которая ассоциирована с серьезными осложнениями, потерей функциональной автономности, инвалидизацией и смертью. Одно из частых коморбидных состояний у лиц пожилого возраста – это артериальная гипертензия (АГ), которая, в свою очередь, увеличивает риск падений. Цель. Изучить факторы риска падений у пациентов с АГ. Материалы и методы. Обследованы 155 пациентов гериатрического отделения с наличием хотя бы 1 падения, случившегося в течение последнего года: 133 (85,8%) женщины (75,29±8,31 года) и 22 (14,2%) мужчины (79,14±4,64 года). У пациентов с АГ оценивались риск падений и факторы риска падений. Результаты. У 148 (95,5%) пациентов имелась АГ. Наиболее распространенными факторами риска АГ у лиц пожилого возраста явились атеросклероз и снижение физической активности. У всех пациентов наблюдались поражения органов-мишеней различной тяжести. В 25,7% случаев отмечены цифры артериального давления (АД) вне целевых значений. 18 (12,2%) пациентов получали гипотензивную терапию нерегулярно. В среднем при поступлении в стационар пациенты получали 2,06±0,63 гипотензивного препарата. Частота падений у пациентов с АГ составила 2,59±2,2, 2 и более падений случилось у 91 (61,5%) человека. По шкале самооценки риска падений 131 (88,5%) пациент имел высокий риск падений. Высокий риск падения в стационаре (по шкале Морсе) был выявлен у 63 (42,6%) пациентов. Наиболее распространенными факторами риска падений у пациентов с АГ были ранее случившиеся падения в анамнезе, сенсорный дефицит, нарушения равновесия, остеоартрит. Результаты комплексной гериатрической оценки демонстрируют, что у пациентов с АГ при АД ниже целевых показателей в сравнении с целевыми и даже высокими цифрами АД отмечается более высокая распространенность старческой астении, хуже показатели функционального статуса, выше частота падений и высокого риска падений по шкале Морсе. Заключение. Наиболее распространенные факторы риска падений у пациентов с АГ – случившиеся ранее падения в анамнезе, сенсорный дефицит, нарушения равновесия, остеоартрит. Для пациентов с АГ низкое АД является предиктором высокого риска падений и худшего прогноза. При уровне АД ниже целевого отмечается более высокая распространенность старческой астении и хуже показатели функционального статуса, что является плохим прогностическим признаком для людей пожилого возраста.
Falls are a serious multi-factorial problem faced by the elderly persons which is associated with serious complications, loss of functional autonomy, disability and death. One of the common comorbidities among the elderly persons is arterial hypertension (AH) which increases the risk of falls. Aim. To study the risk factors for falls among patients with AH.
Materials and methods. Examined 155 patients of geriatric department with the presence of at least one fall in the last year: 133 (85.8%) women (75.29±8.31 years) and 22 (14.2%) men (79.14±4.64 years). Risk of falls and risk factors of falls were assessed in patients with AH. Results. 148 (95.5%) patients had AH. The most common risk factors for hypertension in the elderly were atherosclerosis and decreased physical activity. Target organ lesions of varying severity were observed in all patients. In 25.7% of cases, BP figures outside the target values were noted. 18 (12.2%) patients received hypotensive therapy irregularly. On average, at admission, patients received of 2.06±0.63 anti-hypertensive drug. The frequency of falls in patients with hypertension made up 2.59±2.2, two or more falls happened in 91 persons (61.5%). According to the self-assessment risk of falls scale 131 (88.5%) patients had a high risk of falls. A high risk of falling in hospital (on the Morse scale) was identified in 63 (42.6%) patients. The most common risk factors for falls in patients with AH were previous falls in anamnesis, sensory deficit, imbalance, osteoarthritis. The CGA results demonstrate that patients with hypertension with blood pressure below the target values in comparison with the target and even high numbers of blood pressure have a higher prevalence of frailty, worse indicators of functional status, higher incidence and high risk of falls on the Morse scale. Conclusion. The most common risk factors for falls among patients with AH are previous falls in anamnesis, sensory deficit, imbalance, osteoarthritis. For patients with hypertension, low blood pressure is a predictor of high risk of falls and a worse prognosis. When blood pressure is below the target, there is a higher prevalence of frailty and worse indicators of functional status, which is a poor prognostic sign for the elderly.
