Abstract

Since geriatric individuals are a rapidly growing segment of the population, the number of patients with bipolar mood disorder is increasing gradually. Treatment options become more difficult as a result of increasing organic diseases and comorbid psychiatric disorders with increasing age, and the treatment of geriatric bipolar mood disorder patients can be more complex than that of younger patients, considering the sensitivity to side effects due to pharmacological treatments. The aim of this study is to present the prevalence of bipolar mood disorder in the older age group, the symptoms affecting them, and the current status of comorbid disorders by collecting information from the studies in the related literature. It is of critical importance examining the neurodegeneration of bipolar mood disorder in more detail in future studies. With more interventional studies, it will be possible to support organic diseases and psychiatric comorbidities that occur with advancing age. Local studies on the treatment protocols will help to reduce the burden created on patients.

Özet

Geriatrik bireylerin nüfusun hızla büyüyen bir kesimi olmasından dolayı ileri yaşta bipolar duygudurum bozukluğu hasta sayısı da giderek artmaktadır. Yaşın ilerlemesi ile beraber artan organik hastalıklar ve komorbid olarak görülen psikiyatrik bozukluklar sonucunda tedavi seçenekleri zorlaşmakta, farmakolojik tedavilere bağlı yan etkilere duyarlılık dikkate alındığında da geriatrik bipolar duygudurum bozukluğu hastalarının tedavisi genç yaştaki hastalara göre daha karmaşık olabilmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, ileri yaş grubunda bipolar duygudurum bozukluğunun yaygınlığını, bunları etkileyen semptomları, komorbid olarak gelişen rahatsızlıkların güncel durumunu ilgili literatürde yapılan araştırmalardan bilgi toplayarak özet bir çalışma olarak sunmaktır. Daha fazla girişimsel çalışmalar yardımıyla ilerleyen yaşla birlikte ortaya çıkan organik hastalıkların ve psikiyatrik ek tanıların desteklenmesi mümkün olabilecektir. Tedavi protokollerine ilişkin yapılacak olan çalışmalar hastaların üzerinde oluşan yükün azaltılmasına yardımcı olacaktır.
