Abstract:
The problem of disability is associated with the problem of socially significant diseases, the main feature and at the same time the key characteristic of which is mass character. The epidemic nature of the spread and the medical and social burden of arterial hypertension (AH) leads to the assignment of this pathology to the number of socially significant diseases. The aim of the study was to analyze primary disability due to AH in Moscow and clinical and pathogenetic parallels between the level of arterial pressure and alimentary factors determining cardiovascular risk (CVR). Material and methods. The object of study was the data on the primary disability of the population of Moscow during the period 2011-2017 according to the form of state statistical observation #7-sobes and data of the Ministry of Health of Russia. The study was retrospective. The subject of a selective study was an analysis of the nosological spectrum of causes of disability, the nature of functional impairment and the degree of disability of elderly people who underwent inpatient treatment at the hospital for war veterans of the Rostov region in 2018-2019. The analysis of the spectrum of factors that determine the CVR. Results and discussion. The total number of newly recognized disabled (NRD) due to hypertension amounted to 11,069 people. The growth of the share of NRD of young age (6.8-11.7%), a decrease in the proportion of NRD of middle age (45.3-41.7%) and elderly in 2015-2016 (39.1-39.9%), but the growth of this indicator in this contingent in 2017 to 46.6% were noted. The proportion of NRD group III increased (to 69.1%), NRD group II decreased (to 20.3%) with a negative trend of growth in the proportion of VPI of the most severe group I. Selective survey data among people with disabilities undergoing inpatient treatment at the hospital for war veterans of the Rostov Region (2018-2019) indicated that they had a wide range of factors determining the CVR. Conclusion. The persistence of patients with hypertension triggers, supporting its further progression, is the cause of the low effectiveness of therapy and exacerbates the prognosis. It is advisable to have a unified approach to improving the efficiency of dietary use at the stages of complex treatment, prophylactic and rehabilitation programs with the goal of primary and secondary prevention of hypertension and disability due to this socially significant pathology.
