The extension of life expectancy is one of the most dramatic achievements of the 20th century

Problems..•Change in dexterity, decreased mobility.
•Altered Mentation, Sleep pattern.
•HTN, stroke, diabetes, Alzheimer's etc.
•decreased drug tolerance.

Physiological Changes
•Aging Bladder: Prostatic enlargement& Bladder instability
•Tendency to excrete more water during night
•Atherosclerotic vessels..poor hemostasis/ED
•Hormonal alterations—impotence & atrophic vaginitis /
recurrent UTIs
![Page 5: Common Urological Problems in Geriatric Population](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061214/5499f5ffb479590b458b466b/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Common old age group Urological ailments
• Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms(LUTS): BPH, • Malignancy: Carcinoma prostate ..• Incontinence/overactive bladder• Urinary tract infections • Erectile dysfunction. Affect Quality of life very significantly.
![Page 6: Common Urological Problems in Geriatric Population](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061214/5499f5ffb479590b458b466b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Natural History
• Based on TRUS, the growth of the prostate in these men 40 to 79 years old was estimated to be about 6 ml per decade of life.

•Hesitancy/Weak stream•Urgency, frequency/nocturia.•Retention of urine •Feeling of incomplete voiding.

Evolving trends in BPH
Treatment Choices in BPH
•Mild Symptoms – Watchful Waiting•Moderate Symptoms – Medical •Severe Symptoms – Surgery - Open / TURP
/LASER prostatectomy •Complications – Surgery(Renal Impairment; Rec. UTIs;Retention; Haematuria; Stones)

Pharmacological management of BPH
Alpha Blockers(Veltam, Dynapress,
Urimax)
5 ARIs(Finast, Dutas)

↓AUR 50%
Side EffectsPostural Hypotension,
Aesthenia, Retrograde Ejaculation.

•TURP is not as innocuous or successful as many believe – 18% Complication Rate, ~0.5% Mortality
•Mebust et al, J Urol, 1989; 141: 243

Carcinoma Prostate
• Most cases Unfortunately present
in advanced stage
• Very few qualify(<5%) for curative
surgery (Radical
prostatectomy/Radical
Radiotherapy)

In India it’s the medical Oncologist domain
•Hormonal manipulation with LHRH analogues,
•Second line : ketoconazole, Honvan.
•Third line: docetaxel based chemotherapy.
•Calcium, Zoledronic acid supplementation to prevent osteoporosis and skeletal related events.

Summary of Incontinence Treatment
• Treat underlying factor: UTI,
PARKINSONISM,BPH
• Estrogen supplementation for
atrophic vaginitis
• Antimuscarinic agents for overactive
bladder
• Pelvic muscle exercise: Kegels pelvic
floor dysfunction

Erectile Dysfunction
• The incidence increases significantly with increasing age,
• Decline in testosterone and DHT (ADAMS)
• Testosterone supplementation needed
• Precautions: monitor PSA level, regular DRE

Male Menopause
• Decreased sex drive• Loss of muscle mass• Increased sleepiness• Generalised weakness• Anxiety• Cognitive impairment• Mood swings/depression

ED: An Early Cry For Help
•ED can manifest before other CV symptoms, but it can be silent to the health care provider•Many men will remain silent about ED unless they are asked•Your patients WANT you to bring it upJackson G, et al. Int J Clin Pract. 1999;53:363-368.

Options of Management
•PDE-5 Inhibitors
•Injection therapy
•Vacuum Erection Device
•Penile Prosthesis
![Page 30: Common Urological Problems in Geriatric Population](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061214/5499f5ffb479590b458b466b/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
PDE-5 inhibitors and CVS safety
•Long term PDE-5 inhibitor usage may lead to improvement in endothelial dysfunction and thereby reduce systemic risks too.

Vacuum Devices
•Can improve erection
•Messy and user dependent
•Satisfaction varies 35-80%
![Page 33: Common Urological Problems in Geriatric Population](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061214/5499f5ffb479590b458b466b/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
UTI
• Common problem in
Institutionalized elderly
people
• 10%old M & 20% old F
have bacteuria
• Asymptomatic UTI need
not be treated
![Page 34: Common Urological Problems in Geriatric Population](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061214/5499f5ffb479590b458b466b/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
CAUSE OF UTI
•Decrease in cell mediated immunity in old age
•Concurrent comorbidities-Diabetes, Parkinsonism
•Inability to empty bladder in Toto- BPH, Cystopathy
•Poor hygiene
![Page 35: Common Urological Problems in Geriatric Population](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061214/5499f5ffb479590b458b466b/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Symptomatology
May not exhibit same symptoms
Lethargy, confusion, weakness or new onset incontinence
Close observation of Nursing Home elderly population is key
to management
Urosepsis if not treated early :may lead to hypothermia,
mortality is as high as 40 %
![Page 36: Common Urological Problems in Geriatric Population](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061214/5499f5ffb479590b458b466b/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Treatment
Appropriate antibiotics
Intermittent catheterisation
Ostrogen topical supplementation in elderly
females-to enhance local defense mechanism
Cranberry tablets/juice/lactacyd application (for
replenishing lactobacilli store in genital tract)?
![Page 37: Common Urological Problems in Geriatric Population](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061214/5499f5ffb479590b458b466b/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Cystoscopy has a role to Play

Psychological issues
Social stigma for incontinence deterrent in seeking for treatment
LUTS/ED considered as normal aging process in elderly people

Limited mental & functional ability which interferes with learning, motivation, and cooperation needed for successful treatment
![Page 40: Common Urological Problems in Geriatric Population](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061214/5499f5ffb479590b458b466b/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Concerns in the Forthcoming era
As the proportion of elderly people is on the rise, special emphasis should be laid down on the their needs and suitability
Further research needs to be done in conventional medicines for suitability in geriatric age group
Geriatric medicine should be part of undergraduate and post-graduate teaching curriculum
![Page 41: Common Urological Problems in Geriatric Population](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061214/5499f5ffb479590b458b466b/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
