Prevalence of lower urinary tract symptoms in men over 40 years: A cross-sectional study in Samsun

Öz:

Amaç: Alt üriner sistem semptomları (AÜSS) yaşlı erkeklerde sık görülen sorunlardandır. Bu çalışmanın amacı Uluslararası Prostat Semptom Skoru (IPSS)'nu kullanarak, Türkiye'nin kuzey illerinden Samsun'da yaşayan 40 yaş üstü erkeklerdeki AÜSS sıklığını saptamak ve İPSS ile yaşam kalitesi (QoL) arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemektir. Yöntem ve Gereç: Kesitsel tipteki bu çalışmaya 40 yaş üstünde 1860 erkek katılmış ve katılımcılara IPSS'nun Türkçe formu, yüz yüze anket yöntemiyle uygulanmıştır. Bulgular: İPSS ve yaşam kalitesi ölçeklerinin skor ortancaları tüm grupta sırasıyla 3 (1-9) ve 1 (0-3) bulunmuştur. Her iki ölçekten alınan skor ortancaları 40-49 yaş grubunda sırasıyla 1.0 (0-4) ve 0.0 (0-1) iken, 80 yaş ve üzerindeki katılımcılarda 18.0 (12-26.5) ve 4.0 (3-5)'e yükselmiştir.Yaş grupları arasında İPSS ve QoL skorları açısından istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark bulunmuştur (P < 0.01). Katılımcıların %81.3'ünün en az bir semptomu olduğu ve en sık bildirilen semptomun da noktüri olduğu saptanmıştır (%71.7). İPSS skoruna göre değerlendirildiğinde katılımcıların %29.6'sının orta derecede ya da şiddetli AÜSS'unun olduğu ve bu semptomların sıklığının yaşla birlikte istatistiksel olarak anlamlı şekilde arttığı bulunmuştur. (P < 0.001). Noktüri yaşam kalitesinin en güçlü göstergesi olarak bulunmuştur (r2 - 0.50, P < 0.001). Sonuç: Bu çalışmada AÜSS'larının yaşlı Türk erkeklerindeki sıklığının oldukça yüksek olduğu ve yaşla birlikte arttığı bulunmuştur. Sonuç olarak sağlık hizmetleri kaynak planlaması yapılırken bu bulguların göz önünde bulundurulmasının, AÜSS'larının yaşam kalitesine olan olumsuz etkileriyle mücadele edebilmek için toplumun farkındalığının artırılmasının gerektiği düşünülmektedir.

Kırk yaş üstü erkeklerde alt üriner sistem semptom sıklığı: Samsun’da kesitsel bir çalışma

Öz:

Aim: Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are a common problem in ageing men. The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of LUTS, as measured by the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), and to establish the relationship between the IPSS and quality of life (QoL) in different age groups of men over 40 years old living in Samsun city center in northern Turkey. Materials and Methods: In all, 1860 men aged over 40 years were included in this cross-sectional study. The Turkish version of the IPSS was applied to all participants using face-to-face interview. Results: The median IPSS and QoL were 3 (1-9) and 1 (0-3), and increased from 1.0 (0-4) and 0.0 (0-1) in the fifth decade to 18.0 (12-26.5) and 4.0 (3-5) in those over 80, respectively. There were statistically significant differences between the age groups in both IPSS and QoL (P < 0.01). Of the participants, 81.3% had at least one symptom, the most prevalent of which was nocturia (71.7%). Of the respondents, 29.6% had moderate-to-severe LUTS as measured by the IPSS, and the increase in the prevalence of moderate-tosevere symptoms with age was statistically important (P < 0.001). Nocturia was found to be the strongest predictor of QoL (r2 = 0.50, P < 0.001). Conclusions: The prevalence of LUTS in Turkish elderly men is fairly high and increases with age. This finding must be considered when resources are planned for medical care. On the other hand, it seems that increased public awareness is needed to combat the adverse effects of LUTS on QoL.
