Summary: | Objective: To analyze the association between falls and medication use in non-institutionalized frail elderly.Method: This is a case-control study that was conducted with users of Primary Care of the Unified (Public) Health System (SUS) in the city of Divinópolis, in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The cases were frail elderly individuals with a self-reported fall in the last year, and the controls were frail elderly individuals with no report of falling, matched for gender, age and health centers. The outcome variable was fall occurrence in the last year. Exposure variables were medication use by medication class, use of combination medication therapy, initiation and cessation, and dose adjustment over the past 12 months. The magnitude of the associations was estimated by Odds Ratio (OR).Results: In the univariate analysis, the use of anti-anemic medication, anti-inflammatory medication, antiepileptics and medication cessation and initiation were associated with falling. After adjusting for the other exposure and covariate variables, there was a significant association between falls and use of anti-anemic medication (OR=6,10; 95% CI 1,72 – 21,58).Conclusion: A fall in non-institutionalized frail elderly individuals were associated with the use of anti-anemic medication, an association that has not been described in other studies. |

Os casos eram idosos frágeis com queda autorreferida no último ano e os controles eram idosos frágeis sem relato de queda, pareados por sexo, idade e centro de saúde. A variável de desfecho foi a ocorrência de queda no último ano. As variáveis de exposição foram o uso de medicamentos por classe de medicamentos, o uso de terapia medicamentosa combinada, início e interrupção e ajuste de dose nos últimos 12 meses. A magnitude das associações foi estimada por Odds Ratio (OR).Resultados: Na análise univariada, o uso de medicamentos antianêmicos, antiinfl amatórios, antiepilépticos e a suspensão e iniciação da medicação estiveram associados à queda. Após ajuste pelas demais variáveis de exposição e covariáveis, houve associação signifi cativa entre quedas e uso de medicação antianêmica (OR = 6,10; IC95% 1,72 - 21,58).Conclusão: A queda de idosos frágeis não institucionalizados esteve associada ao uso de medicamentos antianêmicos, associação não descrita em outros estudos.Universidade LaSalle - Unilasalle CanoasCoordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior – Brasil (CAPES)Botelho, Fábio Rogério da SilvaEnes, Thais BuenoSanches, CristinaRocha, Gustavo MachadoSchneider, CarlMorato, Ygor ColenAyres, Lorena RochaReis, Tiago MarquesBaldoni, André de Oliveira2022-02-17info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimento/article/view/743610.18316/sdh.v10i1.7436Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humano; v. 10, n. 1 (2022)Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humano; v. 10, n. 1 (2022)2317-8582reponame:Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humanoinstname:Universidade La Salle (UNILASALLE)instacron:UNILASALLEenghttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimento/article/view/7436/pdfhttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimento/article/downloadSuppFile/7436/1696Direitos autorais 2022 Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humanoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-05-30T13:37:31Zoai:ojs.revistas.unilasalle.edu.br:article/7436Revistahttp://www.revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimentohttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimento/oaisdh@unilasalle.edu.br2317-85822317-8582opendoar:2022-05-30T13:37:31Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humano - Universidade La Salle (UNILASALLE)false |
