BACKGROUND
An increase in life expectancy has led to an increased elderly population. In turn, this aging population is more likely to develop health conditions, such as pelvic floor disorders (PFDs). This study aimed to assess the prevalence of these disorders and the associated quality of life in institutionalized and noninstitutionalized elderly women.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A cross-sectional study was conducted with 80 female participants older than 60 years, divided into 2 groups: institutionalized and noninstitutionalized participants. The Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory Short-Form and a sociodemographic questionnaire were used. A chi-squared test was used to assess the differences in prevalence between groups.
RESULTS
There was no statistically significant difference between the groups in the prevalence of PFDs or quality of life. In this study, the prevalence of PFDs was higher than that reported previously. In institutionalized women, a higher prevalence of PFDs and impaired quality of life were expected, although not observed.
CONCLUSIONS
There was a higher prevalence of pelvic disorders and impaired quality of life due to these disorders in elderly women.
背景
预期寿命的增加导致老年人口增多。相应地，这一老龄化人口更易出现健康问题，如盆底功能障碍（PFDs）。本研究旨在评估这些疾病在机构养老和非机构养老老年女性中的患病率以及相关生活质量。
材料与方法
对80名60岁以上的女性参与者进行了一项横断面研究，分为两组：机构养老参与者和非机构养老参与者。使用了盆底困扰量表简表和一份社会人口学问卷。采用卡方检验评估两组患病率的差异。
结果
两组在盆底功能障碍的患病率或生活质量方面无统计学显著差异。在本研究中，盆底功能障碍的患病率高于先前报道。在机构养老女性中，虽然未观察到，但预计盆底功能障碍的患病率更高且生活质量受损。
结论
老年女性中盆腔疾病的患病率较高，且这些疾病导致生活质量受损。
