摘要
2010年第六次全国人口普查数据显示，我国老龄化趋势加快，60岁及以上人口占13．26％，比2000年大约上升3％。凸显了老年患者中常见且影响生存和治疗选择的共病状态的重要性。临床医师充分了解共病的发病率及其各种影响十分必要。研究共病有助于了解共病疾病间的相互关系；有助于评估疾病预后的影响因素；有助于评估健康检查项目的成本效益、必要性及风险；有助于更好地评估手术风险；有助于制定更加合适的治疗方案。
According to the data of the sixth nationwide population census in 2010, China＇s population is ageing rapidly, people aged 60 and above comprise 13.3 percent of the population, up nearly 3 percentage points from 2000. This makes comorbidity, common in elderly patients and may affect survival and choice of treatment among them, a critical issue. A thorough understanding of the prevalence and role of comorbidity is therefore very necessary to clinicians. Study on comorbidity can get more accurate understanding about the relationships between diseases, improve the evaluation of prognostic risk factors, reduce unnecessary care, help to evaluate the risk of operation, develop optimal treatment.
