Eén op drie thuiswonende 65-plussers valt minimum eenmaal per jaar, bij de 80-plussers stijgt dit cijfer tot helft. Valincidenten gaan vaak gepaard met ernstige gevolgen op fysiek,psychologisch, sociaal en economisch vlak. Via een multidisciplinaire en multifactoriële aanpak kan men valincidenten drastisch verminderen.

Ongeveer een op drie van de thuiswonende ouderen valt minstens één maal per jaar. Bij ouderen met dementie loopt dit percentage op tot 66%. Eén derde van de vallers valt meerdere keren per jaar. Een valincident kan leiden tot heel wat lichamelijke, psychosociale en economische gevolgen. De praktijkrichtlijn valpreventie Vlaanderen is een update van de vorige editie uit 2006 en biedt een overzicht van datgene wat op basis van de tot nu toe beschikbare wetenschappelijke evidentie effectief is in het voorkomen van valincidenten bij thuiswonende ouderen, aangevuld met de nodige klinische expertise. Volgende onderdelen komen aan bod: 1) algemene gezondheidspromotie met focus op valpreventie, 2) valpreventie bij thuiswonende ouderen met verhoogd valrisico en 3) fractuurpreventie bij thuiswonende ouderen met verhoogd valrisico. In deze richtlijn wordt aangegeven welke gezondheids- en welzijnswerkers hierbij een belangrijke rol kunnen vervullen. Op basis hiervan kan voor iedere discipline een specifi ek vormingspakket en/of aanpak worden uitgeschreven. Deze praktijkrichtlijn werd opgesteld in opdracht van Vlaams minister van Welzijn, Volksgezondheid en Gezin.

Onderzoek heeft aangetoond dat er op de ziekenhuisafdeling Geriatrie een grote vraag is naar een leidraad voor een uniforme aanpak van valproblematiek bij geriatrische patiënten. Het College van Geneesheren voor de dienst Geriatrie heeft daarom deze praktijkrichtlijn uitgewerkt, op basis van literatuur en de opinie van enkele experten. Deze praktijkrichtlijn zal de hulpverlener helpen om in de dagelijkse praktijk het risico op valincidenten te verminderen, alsook valincidenten na te kijken en te behandelen, om zo nieuwe valincidenten en de mogelijk ernstige gevolgen te voorkomen.

Dit boek bereidt studenten verpleegkunde voor op het diverse en complexe werk in de ouderenzorg aan de hand van een selectie van gerontologische en geriatrische onderwerpen. Het eerste deel focust op gerontologie. Biologische gerontologie zoekt een antwoord op een aantal essentiële vragen over het lichamelijke verouderen. Waarom verouderen we? Hoe verouderen we? Wat kunnen we eraan doen? Als tegenwicht tegen het verval dat beklemtoond wordt in het biomedische model, volgen daarna de psychogerontologische stromingen die de mogelijkheid tot groei en ontwikkeling tot op hoge leeftijd centraal stellen. Sociale gerontologie - tot slot - nodigt uit tot reflectie over maatschappelijke visies op ouder worden. Enkele demografische verschijnselen die van invloed zijn op de verpleegkundige praktijk komen eveneens aan bod: de babyboomers, de honderdplussers en de oudere allochtonen. In het tweede deel wordt de focus verlegd naar oudere zorgvragers en het domein van de geriatrie. Met de stijgende leeftijd neemt de kans toe dat de oudere patiënt geriatrische kenmerken ontwikkelt die een specifieke verpleegkundige deskundigheid vragen. Comprehensive geriatric assessment, vallen, delirium, depressie en dementie illustreren uitgebreid het bijkomende perspectief nodig in de geriatrische zorg. Deze onderwerpen worden sterk evidence based onderbouwd. Het boek beoogt toekomstige verpleegkundigen een raamwerk te bieden waarbinnen zij hun beeld over ouderen, ouder worden en ouderenzorg kunnen exploreren en hun verpleegkundige competenties verder kunnen ontwikkelen. Het thema 'beeldvorming' loopt als rode draad doorheen beide boekdelen. Via verwerkingsopdrachten toetsen studenten hun competenties en communiceren zij met medestudenten over ouderenzorg. Dit daagt studenten uit in hun persoonlijke en professionele groei.

The average age of the world’s population is increasing at an unprecedented rate and this increase is changing the world. This “Silver tsunami” emphasizes the need to provide advanced training in epidemiology and increase the cadre of experts in the study of aging. This book is designed to summarize unique methodological issues relevant to the study of the epidemiology of aging, biomarkers of aging and the biology/physiology of aging and in-depth discussions of the etiology and epidemiology of common geriatric syndromes and diseases. Contributing authors in the book represent many disciplines, not only epidemiology and clinical geriatrics, but also demography, health services, research, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, psychiatry, neurology, social services, musculoskeletal diseases and cancer. The aim of the book is to provide a broad multidisciplinary background for any student/researcher interested in aging. The material in the book is organized and comprehensive. It represents the most up-to-date information on the scientific issues in aging research written by academics who specialize in research and training in the broad field of aging. The structure and organization of the book reflects our course series in the Epidemiology of Aging starting with the broad issues of demography and methodology, and then addressing specific health conditions and geriatric conditions common to older persons.

This Special Issue of Cancers (Basel) is mainly dedicated to selecting papers from the talks given during the first Joint Meeting on Lung Cancer (JMLC) between the MD Anderson Cancer Center (Houston, Texas USA) and the Hospital University Federation (HUF) OncoAge (University Côte d’Azur, Nice, France) (Nice, September 2018). The central theme of JMLC is to discuss new advances and exchange ideas regarding lung cancer. Notably, the talks covered different topics on new therapeutic strategies (targeted therapy and immuno-oncology), molecular and cellular biology, biomarkers, and the epidemiology of lung cancer. Special attention was also given to lung cancer in elderly patients. The articles published in this Special Issue covered subjects such as the assessment of new biomarkers and new approaches for the early detection of lung cancer, epidemiological data, and emphasized a place for the newly characterized cellular pathways in lung cancer, which opens room for therapeutic perspectives for lung cancer patients.

Appropriate nutrition is a cornerstone of preventive gerontology. This Special Issue of Nutrients provides new insights on nutritional assessment and potential modifications of nutritional behaviours and supplements to prevent age-associated disorders and to increase life expectancy in different populations of older subjects. It includes five original articles and four systematic reviews. This Special Issue presents several aspects of the assessment of nutritional status and the prevention and treatment of nutritional deficiencies in different populations of older adults. Undoubtedly, future research will deepen our knowledge on this crucial public health issue.

A fundamental issue facing the global community is meeting the challenges of population aging and achieving healthy aging to maintain an active older population and reduce the number of disabled people. The focus of this book is on theoretical issues and empirical findings related to trends and determinants of healthy aging, including factors related to "healthy longevity" of the oldest-old, aged 80 and over. The group is the most rapidly increasing elderly sub-population and is most likely to need assistance in daily living in all countries. Chapters include both longitudinal and cross-sectional data from North America, Europe, and Asia in country-specific studies and cross-national comparisons. Part I focuses on the definition, components, concepts, measurements, and determinants of healthy aging, and discusses the trends and patterns of disability and healthy life expectancy at the macro level. Part II addresses individual healthy aging, including its biological and socio-demographic aspects. Part III focuses on issues concerning the family and healthy aging, and Part IV explores formal and informal care for healthy aging through governmental policy interventions and community service programs.
