19 Discussion The study showed a high prevalence rate of geriatric depression of 32%. The prevalence rate in this study is higher than that noted in other Asian countries.
20 Discussion A community study done in Taiwan by Chong et al showed a prevalence rate of only 21.3%. - Chong M, Chen C, Tsang H, Yeh T, Chen C, Lee Y, Tang T and Lo H. Community Study of Depression In Old Age in Taiwan: prevalence, life events and sociodemographic correlates. British Journal of Psychiatry 2001; 178, Another community study done by Mohd Sidik et al in Malaysia showed a prevalence rate of only 7.6%. - Mohd Sidik S, Mohd Zulkefli NA and Mustaqim A. Prevalence of Depression with Chronic Illness among the Elderly in a Rural Community in Malaysia. Asia Pacific Family Medicine 2003; 2:
21 Discussion The prevalence rate in our study estimates that seen in a rural study done in China showing a prevalence rate of 30.8%. - Gao S, Jin Y, Unverzagt F, Liang C, Hall K, Ma F, Murrell J, Cheng Y, Matesan J, Li P, Bian J and Handrie H. Correlates of Depressive Symptoms in Rural Elderly Chinese.International Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry 2009; 24 (12): Our study also approximates the results of another local study done by Cruz which showed a prevalence rate of 34% in a rural community setting. - Cruz C. The Prevalence of Depression in the Elderly at Area C, San Martin II, Sapang Palay, Del Monte Bulacan. The Filipino Family Physician 2008; 36 (2):
22 Discussion This study did prove one risk factor which may have contributed to the high prevalence of geriatric depression among our respondents; that is poor social support.
23 Discussion In a study done in China prevalence of depression in a rural area with high social support went down to as low as 6%. Social support was considered protective against depression. - Chen J, Wei L, Hu Z, Qin X, Copeland J and Hemingway H. Depression in Older People in Rural China. Archives of Internal Medicine 2005; 165:
24 Discussion According to Blazer, impaired social support is associated with depression and this does not only include network size and composition, but also satisfaction to the quality of social support given. - Blazer D. Depression in Late Life: Review and Commentary. Journal of Gerontology 2003; 58A (3):
25 Discussion It is important for us primary care physicians to determine how our patients view their respective families. One way of doing this is by using the Family APGAR, which reflects how satisfied patients are with their relationship among other family members.
26 Discussion In this study, the Family APGAR is seen as a good tool in determining if our elderly patients have a possible risk of developing depression.
27 Conclusions and Recommendations Prevalence of geriatric depression the Out patient Department of our institution is 32%. Family functionality was noted to have a negative correlation with geriatric depression. Respondents from dysfunctional families (APGAR Score = 0-7) had a 3-fold risk of having depression than those from functional families (APGAR Score = 8-10).
28 Conclusions and Recommendations Since the Family APGAR is a widely used tool in family assessment among family physicians, it is recommended that elderly patients with low APGAR Scores be screened for Geriatric Depression. These patients may benefit from family counseling and referral to a Psychiatrist for proper diagnosis and management.
