Present about caring for an aging population is an emerging public health problem, and the quality of life (QoL) among the elderly is a significant concern. Our study aimed to describe the health - related quality of life (HRQoL) and factors associated with good HRQoL among the elderly in three communes of Hanam province in Vietnam. A cross - sectional design was used with a sample size of 479 participants aged 60 and above. HRQoL was measured using the SF - 36. Comparison of characteristics between those with high HRQoL and those with low HRQoL was done using Pearson chi - square tests. Results were reported using descriptive statistics and odds ratios with 95% CI (Confidence Interval). Many of the elderly had moderate HRQoL (41.3%), and elderly men were more likely to have higher QoL in terms of physical health and psychological health than elderly women. Our findings also indicated that some factors including older age, low educational level, those not living with their spouse, poor financial condition, having more than two health problems and possessing unhealthy drinking behaviors were significantly positive associated with HRQoL. Findings suggest interventions are needed to improve the quality of life among the elderly in rural areas of Vietnam.

Present about the objective was to identify the prevalence of benzodiazepine use in older inpatients. A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted at National Geriatric Hospital in 2020 with 258 participants aged 60 and older. Benzodiazepine use was assessed through interview older in-patients about all of sleeping pills they have used before being admitted to the hospital and combined with review of the medical record. The mean age was 73.9 years old. There were 11.2% older patients using benzodiazepines. Only 20.7% patients used benzodiazepines every month, 18.3% used once in 2 - 3 months, and more than a half of older inpatients (65.5%) had used these drugs a few times per year. The mean time of using per month among benzodiazepines users was 7.37 (SD = 6.93). The reduction in the prescription of these drugs should be assessed individually, considering the physiological alterations of the elderly and their adverse effects, in order to minimize incorrect prescriptions.
