Abstract

Koruyucu sağlık hizmetleri; bağışıklama, ilaçla korunma, erken tanı, yeterli ve dengeli beslenme, aile planlaması ve sağlık eğitimi olarak alt gruplara ayrılmaktadır. Bağışıklama, bulaşıcı hastalıklara karşı kişileri korumanın en etkili ve ucuz yollarından birisidir. Aşıya ihtiyaç çocukluk çağı ile birlikte sona ermemektedir. Aksine erişkinleri pek çok hastalıktan, komplikasyonlarından ve ölümden korumaktadır. 65 yaş ve üzeri kişilerde enfeksiyon hastalıklarına yatkınlık artmaktadır. Türkiye’de 65 yaş üzerinde uygulanması önerilen aşılar mevsimsel influenza, pnomokok, herpes zoster ve tetanoz aşılarıdır. Dünya genelinde ve Türkiye’de çocukluk aşılamalarına benzer bir algoritmanın yaşlılar için de hızla planlanıp uygulanmasına ihtiyaç bulunmaktadır.

Vaccination applications in adults over 65 years of age

Abstract

Preventive health services; immunization, drug prevention, early diagnosis, adequate and balanced nutrition, family planning and health education. Immunization is one of the most effective and inexpensive ways to protect people against infectious diseases. The need for vaccination does not end with childhood. On the contrary, it protects adults from many diseases, complications and death. People aged 65 and over are more prone to infectious diseases. Vaccines recommended to be administered over the age of 65 in Turkey are seasonal influenza, pneumococcal, herpes zoster and tetanus vaccines. There is a need for an algorithm similar to childhood vaccinations to be quickly planned and implemented for the elderly in the world and in Turkey.
