Evaluation of Patients Aged 65 Years and Over Who Apply To Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Polyclinics from a Family Medicine Perspective

Öz

Aim:
The aim of this
study was to evaluate the diagnosis of patients aged 65 years and over in
applying to physiotherapy hospitals and to make an evaluation in terms of
primary health care delivery.

Methods: Our study was carried out by retrospectively reviewing
the electronic records of patients aged 65 years and over who applied to the Physiotherapy
and Rehabilitation Hospital outpatient clinics between 01 January - 31 December
2016.

Results: A total of 3920 patients were included in the study.
Of these patients, 2392 (61%) were female and 1528 (39%) were male. According
to the diagnoses of patients who received physiotherapy treatment, lumbar
diseases were found to be the most common with 17% among physical therapy and
rehabilitation diseases. Similarly, the rate of diagnosis with a knee disease
was 15.8%, while this rate was 46.4% in all patients. Based on the groups
defined in the physiotherapy and rehabilitation diagnosis groups list specified
by the health practice communiqué, the rate of diagnosis of group A was 7.5%
(n: 522), the rate of diagnosis of group B was 1.5% (n: 107), and the rate of
diagnosis of group C was 22.5% (n: 1556).

Conclusion:
In primary
health care provision, patients should be made aware of their skeletal system
complaints. During this process, we think that it is important for family
physicians to support the patients to struggle with pain, in terms of raising
the quality of life of the patients in this age group.
