Physiological changes are brought by aging anddepending on conditions such as chronic diseases, elderly little tolerate surgery, surgical morbidity and mortality ratesare higher than youngsters. However, minimizing postoperative complications, improving the survival rate, keeping thequality of life in optimum level is possible with an efficient, adequate, planned and qualified care for elderly patientwho experienced surgical operation.

YAŞLI HASTANIN AMELİYAT SONRASI BAKIMINDAKİ FARKLILIKLAR

Öz

ÖZET

Yaşlı nüfus tüm dünyada olduğu gibi ülkemizde de hızla artış göstermektedir. Genel popülasyondaki yaşlıların yarısının, sağlığının yükseltilmesi, fonksiyon yetersizliğinin azaltılması, ağrının ve ızdırabın dindirilmesi ve yaşam kalitesinin korunması amacıyla cerrahi girişim deneyimlediği tahmin edilmektedir. Yaşlanmanın getirdiği fizyolojik değişiklikler, kronik hastalıklar gibi durumlara bağlı olarak yaşlılar cerrahi girişimi daha az tolere etmekte, cerrahi morbidite ve mortalite oranları gençlere göre daha yüksek olmaktadır. Ancak cerrahi girişim geçiren yaşlı hastaya verilecek olan etkili, yeterli, planlı ve kaliteli bir bakım ile ameliyat sonrası komplikasyonların en aza indirgenmesi, sağkalım oranının arttırılması ve yaşam kalitesinin optimum düzeyde tutulması mümkündür.

Bu makalede; yaşlanmaya bağlı meydana gelen anatomik-fizyolojik değişiklikler ve ameliyat sonrası karşılaşılabilecek sorunlara yönelik bakım girişimleri tartışılmıştır.
