TAILIEUCHUNG - Chronic Disease, Functional Status and Quality Of Life Among The Elderly In Singapore

Consistent with the results of the Bechara study, our subjects gradually concentrated their choices on deck B (Fig. 2). The beginning phase of the task was an exploratory period in which both populations sampled each deck equally. For the next 20 draws subjects shifted towards deck B drawing on average 8 of the 20 cards from deck A. In the final 10 draws both groups largely abandoned deck A: on average the younger subjects chose deck A two times of 10 and the older subjects chose deck A three times of 10. In summary both populations appear to have adapted the same way to the payoffs | Symposium on Health Care Challenges for an Ageing Population Managing Health Care and End of Life Decisions in Singapore 29 May 2009 Singapore CHRONIC DISEASE FUNCTIONAL STATUS AND QUALITY OF LIFE Among the elderly in SINGAPORE Ng Tze Pin Gerontological Research Programme Department of Psychological Medicine Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine National University of Singapore Synopsis Aims Assess salient health and social needs of elderly Singaporeans Identify vital areas that are likely to present the best avenues and opportunities for success in achieving longer and healthier life expectancy. Methodology Data from the baseline survey of participants in the Singapore Longitudinal Ageing Studies SLAS Thesis The present trend of functional disability is increasing It should be reversed by measures taken to improve quality of geriatric care assisted living and long-term care designs for housing built environment and transportation and promotion of active ageing . Population Ageing in Singapore Population ageing in Singapore is rapid and unprecedented Persons aged 65 8 in 2009 19 in 2030 Enormous health care and social challenges of population ageing have to be faced much sooner rather than later Percent Increase in Elderly Population 2000 to 2030 Demographic transition is accompanied by epidemiological transition Acute and communicable diseases are replaced by cancer and chronic degenerative and metabolic .
