0302/2020 - Doenças crônicas não transmissíveis e suas implicaçoes na vida de idosos dependentes Chronic non-communicable diseases and their implications in the life of dependent elderly people
Este estudo tem como objetivo investigar as implicações das doenças crônicas não transmissíveis em idosos dependentes.Trata-se de um estudo multicêntrico com abordagem qualitativa em que foram realizadas entrevistas semi estruturadas com 59 idosos dependentes que tinham diagnóstico de doença crônica. Para a análise das informações, utilizou-se a técnica da Análise Temática. A maioria dos idosos era do sexo feminino, da raça branca, com baixa escolaridade e vivia com a filha. Todos faziam tratamento medicamentoso e as doenças cardio circulatórias foram as mais prevalentes. As implicações das doenças crônicas se manifestam no uso de medicamentos,que também se constituem como fator de risco; na condição da dependência e na vivência com doenças crônicas, que denotam em maior uso dos serviços de saúde; no alto impacto econômico das doenças crônicas para as famílias e para o Estado; e na precariedade da renda familiar, que condicionam os idosos a contarem com poucos dispositivos de apoio social e comunitário.
