Resumo: The expressive increase in the number of elderly people is a global event, which has been occurring steadily. Data show that this population will approach 2 billion people by 2050. Associated with this growth, depressive symptoms and depression, properly speaking, reveal concern about an incident epidemic, mainly in the age group of the elderly, who usually neglect symptoms with belief that they are inherent to the natural aging process. The present study is an integrative literature review and aimed to demonstrate the importance of primary health care in detecting depressive symptoms in the elderly, to know the problems related to the symptoms, to identify the best instrument for early detection of the problem and to describe the therapies used in the elderly with depressive symptoms. The search was carried out in the electronic databases SCIELO, LILACS and BIREME, including works published between 2011 and 2019, in Portuguese. The selection of studies, data extraction and validation were carried out independently by two authors, obtaining a sample of 37 articles. It was found, through the data analyzed, the main methods used to screen for depressive symptoms, the most associated comorbidities reported in the literature and the main methods addressed for treatment. Thus, it was possible to systematically structure the most recent reports of the problem in primary health care and lay the ground for elucidation, choice and possible standardization of screening methods.

Los datos muestran que esta población se acercará a los 2.000 millones de personas en 2050. Asociados a este crecimiento, los síntomas depresivos y la depresión, propiamente hablando, revelan la preocupación por una epidemia incidente, principalmente en el grupo de edad de los ancianos, que suelen descuidar los síntomas con la creencia de que son inherentes al proceso de envejecimiento natural. El presente estudio es una revisión integradora de la literatura y tuvo como objetivo demostrar la importancia de la atención primaria de salud en la detección de síntomas depresivos en el anciano, conocer los problemas relacionados con los síntomas, identificar el mejor instrumento para la detección precoz del problema y describir la terapias utilizadas en ancianos con síntomas depresivos. La búsqueda se realizó en las bases de datos electrónicas SCIELO, LILACS y BIREME, incluyendo trabajos publicados entre 2011 y 2019, en portugués. La selección de estudios, extracción de datos y validación fueron realizadas de forma independiente por dos autores, obteniendo una muestra de 37 artículos. Se encontró, a través de los datos analizados, los principales métodos utilizados para el cribado de síntomas depresivos, las comorbilidades más asociadas reportadas en la literatura y los principales métodos abordados para el tratamiento. Así, fue posible estructurar sistemáticamente los informes más recientes del problema en la atención primaria de salud y sentar las bases para el esclarecimiento, elección y posible estandarización de los métodos de detección.O aumento expressivo do número de idosos é um acontecimento global, que vêm ocorrendo de maneira constante. Dados remontam que essa população se aproximará de 2 bilhões de pessoas até 2050. Associado a esse crescimento, sintomas depressivos e a depressão, propriamente dita, revelam preocupação com uma epidemia incidente, principalmente no grupo etário dos idosos, que costumeiramente negligencia os sintomas com a crença de serem inerentes ao processo natural do envelhecimento. O presente estudo é uma revisão integrativa da literatura e teve como objetivo demonstrar a importância da atenção primária à saúde na detecção de sintomas depressivos em idosos, conhecer os agravos relacionados com os sintomas, identificar o melhor instrumento para detecção precoce da problemática e descrever as terapêuticas empregadas nos idosos com sintomas depressivos. A busca foi realizada nas bases de dados eletrônicas SCIELO, LILACS e BIREME, incluindo trabalhos publicados entre 2011 e 2019, em língua portuguesa. A seleção dos estudos, extração de dados e validação foram realizadas de forma independente por dois autores, obtendo amostra de 37 artigos. Constatou-se, através dos dados analisados, os principais métodos utilizados para rastreio dos sintomas depressivos, comorbidades mais associadas relatados na literatura e os principais métodos abordados para tratamento. Assim, foi possível estruturar de forma sistemática os relatos mais recentes da problemática na atenção primária à saúde e lançar base para elucidação, escolha e possível padronização dos métodos de rastreio.Research, Society and Development2021-02-14info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/1249910.33448/rsd-v10i2.12499Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 2; e23210212499Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 2; e23210212499Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 2; e232102124992525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/12499/11205Copyright (c) 2021 Mirlane Pereira Soares; Sueli de Souza Costa; Izolda Souza Costa; Nilson de Jesus Pereira Batalha Júniorhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSoares, Mirlane PereiraCosta, Sueli de SouzaCosta, Izolda SouzaBatalha Júnior, Nilson de Jesus Pereira2021-03-02T09:32:39Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/12499Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:34:03.563350Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
