Description

The national study SNAC - The Swedish National Study on Aging and Care, includes four participating areas: SNAC-Blekinge, SNAC Kungsholmen, SNAC Nordanstig and SNAC Skåne Gott Åldrande i Skåne (GÅS). In all four areas, a independently research centre conducts a population study and a health care system study. (Metadata related to the main study SNAC and the other participating areas can be found under the Related studies tab).

SNAC-GÅS
Gott Åldrande i Skåne is intended for a random selection of people, 60 years and older, who live in the municipalities of Malmö, Eslöv, Hässleholm, Osby and Ystad. The study consists of two parts – the population study and the care system study.

The population study:
The baseline examination was conducted between 2001-2004, with a total of 2,931 individuals aged 60-93 years. The baseline examination included clinical examinations by a physician, a psychologist and a nurse as well as a questionnaire. The first re-examination of participants aged >78 years was performed during 2005-2007. The second re-examination of each participant in the baseline examination

The first re-examination of participants aged >78 years was performed during 2005-2007. The second re-examination of each participant in the baseline examination was performed during 2008-2010, when also 1,523 new participants were invited. The third and fourth re-examination was carried out during 2010-2012 and 2013-2015 when additional 1,350 participants were included. A fifth and sixth re-examination takes place during 2016-2018 and 2019/2021.

The care system study:
Data collection take place in two steps: In the first step, information on all elderly people who currently receive health care from the municipalities and/or Region Skåne are collected. Next, information on all new patients and information about the progress of those who already have interventions (continuous collecting) are gathered.

Purpose:

To study normal aging, functional ability, diseases an associated risk factors, health and life situation and the need of care and service in a normal elderly population. Show less..
