АССОЦИАЦИЯ АНЕМИИ С ЭКСТРАСИСТОЛИЕЙ У ПАЦИЕНТОВ СО СТАРЧЕСКОЙ АСТЕНИЕЙ

Abstract

According global population aging there is an increase in the absolute and relative numbers of people in older age groups. Therefore, senile asthenia (SA) is very relevant. An association between SA and cardiovascular disease has been proven. In addition, there is an increase of aging anemia. At the same time, mortality in patients with anemia, including anemia, which is caused by cardiovascular diseases, increases. Purpose of the study: To study the association of anemia with cardiovascular pathology in patients who have SA syndrome. 168 over 65-year-old patients were examined. The main group contains 60 patients with SA syndrome (37 men, 23 women); control group includes 108 people (68 men, 40 women) without SA syndrome. The median age of patients in the main group did not statistically significantly differ from the median age of people in the control group (82 years ±7.4 [75.00; 84.00] years versus 78 years ±7.1 [65.00; 82.00] years, p=0.605). All patients had a comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGE). Statistically, anemia in patients with SA is diagnosed more frequently in comparison with patients without SA (51.67% vs. 33.33%, p<0.001). Statistically, significant negative correlations were determined among the hemoglobin level and senile asthenia (r=-0.222; p<0.001), hematocrit and senile asthenia (r=-0.224; p<0.001). There are statistically significant direct correlations between anemia in patients with SA with frequent supraventricular extrasystole (r=0.152; p=0.049) and frequent ventricular extrasystole (r=0.154, p=0.047). Conclusion: The association of SA with anemia was confirmed, whereas anemia in patients, who have SA syndrome, affects the occurrence of frequent supraventricular and frequent ventricular extrasystoles.
