RESUMEN: El envejecimiento de la población es una realidad a nivel mundial y un fenómeno significativo en el siglo XXI. La curación y la supervivencia ya no son los únicos fines de la atención sanitaria de acción prioritaria. La calidad de vida de los individuos puede llegar a ser el principal determinante asistencial en muchas enfermedades crónicas. Además, se sabe que el estado funcional y la calidad de vida percibida son predictores independientes de los resultados en salud. Una mala calidad de vida relacionada con la salud (CVRS) en el anciano se ha asociado a mayores tasas de hospitalización, mortalidad y consumo de recursos sanitarios. El objetivo principal de este estudio es conocer la CVRS del anciano atendido en las consultas de Atención Primaria en Cantabria y, dados los diferentes riesgos psicosociales que afectan a las mujeres y a los varones, en un estudio diferenciado por género.
ABSTRACT: Population aging is a global reality and a significant phenomenon in the XXI century. The cure and survival are no longer the only purposes of health care for priority action. Quality of life of individuals can be the main determinant of care in many chronic diseases. In addition, it is known that the functional status and quality of life perceived are independent predictors of health outcomes. An impaired health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in the elderly has been associated with increased risk of hospitalization, mortality and higher use of health services. The main objective of this study is to ascertain the HRQOL of the elderly served in Primary Care consultations in Cantabria in a study by gender because of the different psychosocial risks that affect women and men.
