(Samara, Volgograd, Voronezh, Kaluga, Belgorod, Perm regions, the Republic of Bashkortostan) in the pilot project Territory of care for 2017–2019. The purpose of the pilot project is to organize a geriatric service in the regions of the Russian Federation, including in the Samara region, in accordance with the order of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation dated January 29, 2016 38n “On approval of the
procedure for providing medical care in the profile “Geriatrics”. According
to the Roadmap for the implementation of the pilot project Territory of care in the Samara region for 2017–2019, the formation of the geriatric service went through the following stages:
1. Analytical I (preanalysis). Analysis of forces (personnel) and
means (network, equipment) in the region.
2. Organizational and methodological. Creation of a regulatory framework (an interdepartmental agreement on joint work between the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Social, Demographic and Family Policy of the Samara Region; routing of patients for medical care in the Geriatrics profile, development of educational programs).
3. Educational. Training of specialists (medical personnel, social workers, nurses in the field of Geriatrics).
4. Practical (creation of geriatric rooms in the outpatient network, geriatric inpatient departments, interdepartmental and interdisciplinary interaction to provide assistance in the field of Geriatrics).
5. Analytical II (post-analysis). Summing up the results of the implementation of the pilot project Territory of care in the Samara region. for 2017–2019.
In the region, an Agreement between the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Social, Demographic and Family Policy of the Samara Region was approved as part of interdepartmental cooperation, further training of medical personnel (doctors, nurses), social workers, and nurses in the Geriatrics profile is being carried out. As of September 30, 2022, a geriatric center operates in the region (the head is the chief freelance geriatrician of the Ministry of Health of the Samara Region, MD S.V. Bulgakova), 40 geriatric rooms in primary health care, 165 geriatric
32
beds in round-the-clock hospitals (at GBUZ Samara Regional Clinical Geriatric Hospital 105 beds, in GBUZ Samara Regional Clinical Hospital of War Veterans 60 beds).
In terms of routing at the stage of primary outpatient care, general practitioners screen all patients over 60 years of age for the syndrome of frailty according to the questionnaire Age is not a hindrance, consisting of seven questions. Each positive answer is assigned one point. With a set of three or more points, the patient is necessarily sent for a consultation with a geriatrician. According to the order of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation dated January 29, 2016 38n “On Approval of the Procedure for Providing Medical Care in the Geriatrics Profile”, primary specialized health care in the Geriatrics profile is carried out by a geriatrician in cooperation with doctors of various specialties (interdisciplinary interaction) and a social work specialist (interdepartmental interaction). If necessary, specialized inpatient medical care in the Geriatrics profile for persons of older age groups can be obtained in geriatric departments on the basis of the Samara Regional Clinical Geriatric Hospital and the Samara Regional Clinical Hospital for War Veterans. In order to provide social assistance and social adaptation of patients with frailty, a social work specialist determines their further routing. One of the achievements of the region in 2018. was the introduction of such items as a visit to a geriatrician with a comprehensive geriatric assessment 90 minutes, a consultation with a geriatrician with a comprehensive geriatric assessment 90 minutes. Currently, federal standards are in place for outpatient and inpatient medical institutions: a 45-minute consultation with a geriatrician.
There is a sufficient supply of geriatricians in the region. At the Department of Endocrinology and Geriatrics of the Samara State Medical University of the Ministry of Health of Russia, geriatricians regularly undergo PC cycles, residents are trained in the specialty Geriatrics. There is a sufficient supply of nursing staff working in geriatric centers, geriatric rooms and geriatric departments.
Electronic comprehensive geriatric assessments have been developed and put into operation, work has been organized to provide palliative care
33
to patients with geriatric psychiatry, the work of multidisciplinary field teams has been established to provide medical care in the Geriatrics profile to the population of the Samara region, and constant work has been organized with the media.
The region is fulfilling the targets stipulated by the National Project Demography and the regional level of hospitalization for a gerontological (geriatric) bed of the Older Generation component:
- the level of hospitalization for a gerontological (geriatric) bed;
- coverage of citizens older than working age with preventive
examinations, including clinical examination;
- the proportion of people older than working age who have diseases
and pathological conditions under dispensary observation;
- delivery of citizens 65 years and older to medical organizations.
Meeting these targets carefully monitored monthly by the chief freelance geriatrician of the Ministry of Health of the Samara Region, the information is sent to the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation and the Federal National Research Center for Geriatrics.
Established interagency cooperation. In 2021, the region entered the pilot project System of long-term care for the elderly and disabled. The project is an integral part of activities aimed at developing and maintaining the functional abilities of older citizens, including balanced social services and medical care at home, in a semi-residential and stationary form, with the involvement of patronage services and carers, as well as support for family care. A road map has been approved in the region. The Geriatric Center, together with the chief freelance geriatrician of the Ministry of Health of the Samara Region, makes visits to boarding houses and complex centers of social services for the population to monitor ongoing activities, carry out on-site consultations, and educational activities. The issue is controlled by the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation and the Federal National Research Center for Geriatrics. There are no complaints.
Within the framework of interdepartmental cooperation, the Department of Endocrinology and Geriatrics conducts training for employees of the Ministry of Social, Demographic and Family Policy
34
involved in the implementation of the pilot project (extrabudget) according to the original program developed by the department's employees.
Comprehensive geriatric assessment: Age is not a hindrance and a block of neuropsychological tests for the early diagnosis of frailty and neurodegenerative diseases Vascular Dementia, Alzheimer's Disease, etc.” are formed in EMIAS (the main freelance geriatrician, together with the employees of the geriatric center of the GBUZ SOKGB, developed an interface), then in the discharge summary and will be available in information interdepartmental interaction with the GIS SOG (an analogue of the information system of the Ministry of Social-Demographic and Family Policy). This allows , in 100 % of cases, after discharge from the hospital, to transfer information to comprehensive social service centers for the population, followed by interdepartmental interaction between outpatient departments of medical organizations in the Samara region, to work with autonomous non-profit organizations social service centers for the population (ANO TsSON) for medical and social support and provision of social services, incl. and at home.
On the basis of the Geriatrics Center of the State Budgetary Healthcare Institution of the SOKGB with the RGNCC (Moscow) and medical organizations of the Samara region.
The region is implementing a program to introduce a set of measures aimed at preventing falls and fractures in the elderly and senile.
The Department of Endocrinology and Geriatrics of the Samara State Medical University of the Ministry of Health of Russia (Head of the Department, Doctor of Medical Sciences S.V. Bulgakova), together with the State Budgetary Healthcare Institution of the Specialized Clinical Hospital, the State Budgetary Healthcare Institution of the Specialized Clinical Hospital, in order to increase life expectancy in the region and active longevity, conducts the following scientific work:
1. The study of age-associated, metabolic diseases and the development of methods for early diagnosis, comprehensive measures for their prevention and treatment.
2. Identification of factors, pathogenetic mechanisms that determine the processes of aging, including premature, and the development of
35
methods for early diagnosis, comprehensive measures for the prevention and treatment of premature aging.
3. Basic and applied research in the field of gerontology, studying the mechanisms of aging and ways to extend life in order to:
studying the mechanisms of aging; prevention of development and progression of frailty; optimization of prevention, diagnosis and treatment of age-related
diseases in the elderly;
IT-geriatrics; deprescribing of drugs in the treatment of age-associated
diseases.
In 2022, employees of the Department of Endocrinology and Geriatrics entered the working group of the United Russia Party project Older Generation. A number of documents have been prepared. Party project coordinator, First Vice Speaker of the Samara Provincial Duma, Ph.D. M.J. Antimonov.
In 2022, the implementation of paragraph 10 of the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated June 23, 2021 1692-r Implementation of the prevention of cognitive impairment in older citizens is implemented on the basis of the Regional Action Plan for the implementation in 2021–2025 in the Samara Region of the Action Strategy in the interests of older citizens until 2025, includes holding joint events between the Geriatric Center and Samara State Medical University of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation:
1. Implementation of measures to prevent cognitive disorders in older
citizens.
2. Implementation of the method of therapeutic functionally balanced
nutrition of the brain.
3. Introduction of combined and hybrid methods for the diagnosis,
treatment and prevention of cognitive disorders in older citizens.
4. A neural network algorithm for the early detection of cognitive
chronobiological differences with a functional technology for the
36
prevention and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in middle-aged and elderly people.
5. Functional technologies for the prevention of early cognitive deficit in middle-aged and elderly people based on digital neurovirtual technologies.
From 12/15/2021, the Cooperation Agreement between the State Budgetary Healthcare Institution SOKGB and the Samara State Medical University of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation On conducting research to develop successful practices for active longevity and healthy human aging is being implemented. Conducting research, incl. on the prevention of cognitive impairment and neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer's disease, dementia), scientific, methodological and design work.
The joint work of the departments of Samara State Medical University: physiology with the course of BJD and MC, medical physics, mathematics and computer science, endocrinology and geriatrics, psychiatry, narcology, psychotherapy and clinical psychology open up prospects for the clinical implementation of modern neurotechnologies.
In addition, with the active participation of the chief geriatrician of the Ministry of Health of the Samara Region, MD. S.V. Bulgakova, schools of memory, schools of rehabilitation and care for patients with vascular dementia and Alzheimer's disease are being opened on the basis of medical facilities; for the prevention of bedsores, for the care of patients with frailty with cognitive impairment of varying severity.
Samara Regional Clinical Hospital for War Veterans in 2017 became the winner in the nomination Leader in the implementation of the pilot project Territory of Care.
In 2020 according to the results of the work of the federal forum Strong ideas for the new time the chief geriatrician of the region, MD. Bulgakova S.V. was awarded the Silver Medal Choice of the Community, and on September 14, 2022 a diploma of the finalist for replication in medical organizations and social institutions of the Best
37
Practices for ACTIVE LONGEVITY 2021. These are high marks for the achievements of Samara geriatrics.
In the prospects for the development of the geriatric service in the Samara region, I would like to highlight the following points:
1. In connection with the continuing aging of the region's population
and an increase in the proportion of people over 60, it is necessary to annually monitor the region's need for geriatric rooms and beds, followed by the correction of these indicators in accordance with Order No.
2. Maintaining a register of patients with a diagnosis of frailty”.
3. Continue the implementation and monitoring of target
indicators provided for by the National Project Demography and the regional component Older Generation”.
4. Continue the implementation of pilot projects The system of
long-term care for the elderly and disabled, Introduction of a set of measures to prevent falls and fractures in the elderly and senile, Introduction of prevention of cognitive impairment in older citizens”.
5. Strengthen innovative work in gerontology and geriatrics with the
introduction of developments into practice.
In our rather rapidly changing age, the age of the aging of the population, geriatrics remains a sought-after medical specialty. The development of geriatrics is a requirement of the times.
Aging can be viewed in many ways, but it must be prepared: at different stages of human development, lifelong health, safe environments, older-centred health care and long-term care systems, strengthening the evidence base and scientific research in the field of gerontology.
Humanity looks at the problems of old age in a new way. The healthcare paradigm is also changing. If the main problem of medicine at a young age is the prevention, detection and treatment of diseases, then for people over 75 it is slowing down the aging process, maintaining independence and a high quality of life. Thus, we can say that the Samara region has become one of the leading centers in the study of gerontology and geriatrics, contributing in every possible way to the thesis put forward by the outstanding scientist I.V. and must be made useful to society.
38
Therefore, science is closely studying the medical aspects of aging in order to make life easier for an elderly person. In our opinion, knowledge of gerontology, geriatrics, social assistance to people who have crossed a certain age limit is needed by everyone. The need for a broader education of the whole society within the framework of gerontology and geriatrics is dictated not only by the aging of the population, but also by the progress of mankind, which is not seen without the active participation of older people in it, who are able to pass on their experience and knowledge to subsequent generations.

3. COMPREHENSIVE GERIATRIC ASSESSMENT: A BACKGROUND
A comprehensive assessment of the health status of an elderly person has historically gone through three phases of development. This process was first carried out in 1935 at the West Middlesex Infirmary, in the UK, where Marjorie Warren, the mother of geriatrics, established a system of rehabilitation for elderly patients based on a complete comprehensive assessment of their condition. She and her team found that bedridden and long-term hospitalized elderly patients have many disorders, but it is possible to restore independence, the ability to self-care, and improve the quality of life through various targeted rehabilitation measures.
The integrated assessment model developed and improved until the 1970s in each country. From the mid-seventies to the mid-90s, many randomized trials were performed to evaluate the clinical and cost­effectiveness of various models of geriatric care, which were based on a comprehensive assessment of the health status of the elderly patient. A 1993 meta-analysis of 28 studies culminated in a meta-analysis of 28 studies that examined the effectiveness of five different types of services for older patients: inpatient emergency department, inpatient geriatric counseling service, geriatric home counseling service, and special assessment service. patient after discharge from the hospital, as well as an outpatient system for a comprehensive assessment of an elderly patient. The analysis showed that, despite the advantages of some programs, especially those that included assessment of patients at home and in a hospital, they all contributed to an 18 % reduction in mortality, and also increased the likelihood of patients returning to independent living at home by 25 %. Moreover, there was a 41 % increase in the likelihood of improving cognitive functions, and a 12 % increase in the risk of readmissions. Comprehensive evaluation programs have continued to be studied since the publication of these impressive results, but one of the universally accepted conclusions remains fundamental: these programs
40
must target specific groups of older people if they are to be clinically and economically effective. They should be used primarily for patients with frailty. As mentioned above, for many patients over 60, only preventive measures are needed nutritional advice, increased physical activity, timely treatment of chronic diseases. These tasks can be performed by primary care, general practitioners, together with nurses. For many other patients those who are frail, or those over 75 years of age, or who will be placed in a nursing home or residential facility not only a comprehensive assessment is needed, but, most importantly, follow-up to improve their condition, with ongoing monitoring, home visits, rehabilitation. Another group can be identified as a result of such a comprehensive assessment those who do not yet need special rehabilitation measures, but have unsatisfactory, borderline health indicators. If such evaluations remain mere evaluations, they are neither clinically nor economically effective. An example is services that only conduct examinations and give recommendations, but do not support further monitoring of the patient, do not engage in his rehabilitation.
The third phase of development and improvement of a comprehensive assessment of the health status of an elderly person began in the mid-90s and continues to the present. Its main goal is approval and adaptation to the characteristics of different countries, different populations, different health care systems. It should be noted that adaptation takes place everywhere with discussion at the level of national and international medical communities, but the main role belongs, of course, to national geriatric communities and associations. An important question that emerged from these discussions is who should carry out the assessment and follow-up?
In 2001, the study Dutch Easy care was started in the Netherlands and completed in 2007. The reason for organizing this study was that general practitioners are faced daily with the growing needs of an aging population suffering from numerous diseases and problems caused by old age and disease. At the same time, despite a significant decline in functions and quality of life, loss of independence, ability to self-service,
