    Sammanfattning : The general conception is that blood pressure increases with age, but that diastolic blood pressure (DBP) starts decreasing in the elderly. There are, however, indications that systolic blood pressure (SBP) might also decline in advanced age, but further studies are needed to establish whether this is true. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Elöverkänslighet är ett officiellt funktionshinder. Enligt Socialstyrelsens Miljöhälsorapport 2009 uppger 3,2 procent av befolkningen i åldrarna mellan 18 och 80 år att de är känsliga/överkänsliga eller allergiska mot elektriska och magnetiska fält, vilket motsvarar drygt 200 000 personer. 0,4 procent uppger att de har svåra besvär.

  4. 14. Medication-related problems and psychotropic drug use in vulnerable older populations : a focus on acute hospital admissions and cognitive impairment

    Författare :Jonas Kindstedt; Maria Gustafsson; Hugo Lövheim; Eva-Lotta Glader; Staffan Hägg; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; older people; cognitive impairment; medication-related problems; psychotropic drugs; Clinical Pharmacology; klinisk farmakologi;

    Sammanfattning : The ageing process involves several physiological changes that affect both pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics and that, in combination with a heavier disease burden and more extensive use of medicines, put older people at higher risk of medication-related problems and associated clinical outcomes. The older population is often treated as a homogenous group, when in fact there are factors that render certain individuals more vulnerable to adverse drug effects and other types of medication-related problems.

For this reason, it cannot be assumed that the harmonization of accounting standards will result in consistent application in practice. LÄS MER
