Depresia je veľmi častá v staršom veku. Základom depresívnej poruchy je patická nálada, smútok, redukcia záujmovej sféry a iniciatívy. Veľmi často sa v skupine geriatrických pacientov vyskytujú suicidálne myšlienky (7).

Do sledovania sme zapojili 14 gerontopsychiatrických pacientov umiestnených v Domove dôchodcov v Banskej Bystrici a 14 gerontopsychiatrických pacientov, ktorí nežijú v domove dôchodcov, ale v mieste svojho pôvodného bydliska a sú v starostlivosti našich psychiatrických ambulancií.

Sledovali sme výskyt suicidálnych myšlienok a socioekonomický status u všetkých pacientov. Suicidálne myšlienky sa vyskytli s rovnakou frekvenciou aj u pacientov, ktorí nežijú v domove dôchodcov, hoci bodové ohodnotenie škál týkajúce sa hĺbky depresie bolo lepšie.

Medzi významné rizikové faktory depresie a suicidálnych myšlienok patria emocionálne problémy v staršom veku a úzkosť spojené so smrťou partnera, blízkej osoby, chorobou, stratou zamestnania a tiež zmenou bydliska, napríklad umiestnením do domova dôchodcov. Potvrdili sa environmentálne stresory ako rizikové faktory depresívneho prežívania a suicidálnych myšlienok v staršom veku.
