The scope of this study was to describe reports of violence against the elderly (e" 60 years) reported in the Information System for Notifiable Diseases - net version (Sinan Net) in 2010. We conducted a descriptive, retrospective study with data analyzed by Stata version 11. We estimated proportion ratios (PR) of violence according to selected variables. Of the 3,593 reports of violence against the elderly, 52.3% were against females. Physical violence was significantly more frequent against males (PR=0.82) in the group aged 60 to 69 years, out of the home, committed by offenders who were not sons and were suspected of drinking alcohol. Psychological violence was more common among elderly people (PR=2.17), in the home, inflicted by sons, with suspected chronic alcohol abuse. Negligence was predominant among females (P R=1.24), in the group above 70 years of age, in the home, recurrently perpetrated by sons. Sexual violence was more common against females (PR=5.21), by offenders who were not children, but who consumed alcohol. The knowledge of the different manifestations of violence against the elderly supports actions to combat them, identifying characteristics of vulnerability in which support networks may intervene.
本研究的范围是描述2010年《法定传染病信息系统》网络版(Sinan Net)中报告的针对老年人(≥60岁)的暴力事件。我们进行了一项描述性回顾性研究,数据采用Stata 11版本进行分析。我们根据选定变量估计了暴力事件的比例比(PR)。在3593起针对老年人的暴力事件报告中,52.3%是针对女性的。在60至69岁的人群中,发生在家庭外、由非儿子且涉嫌饮酒的犯罪者实施的身体暴力,针对男性的情况明显更为频繁(PR = 0.82)。心理暴力在老年人中更为常见(PR = 2.17),发生在家庭内、由儿子实施且涉嫌长期酗酒。疏忽在70岁以上的女性群体中占主导地位(PR = 1.24),发生在家庭内、由儿子反复实施。性暴力针对女性更为常见(PR = 5.21),犯罪者不是子女,但饮酒。了解针对老年人暴力的不同表现形式有助于采取行动打击这些暴力行为,识别支持网络可以干预的脆弱性特征。
