We introduced an original simple anonymous questionnaire for urological patients in Moscow and Omsk outpatient clinics and hospitals. A total of 580 patients aged between 40 and 70 years (mean age 61.48 years) responded from February to June 2008. The questions concerned PSA test. In Omsk more men were tested for PSA: 77% against 67 in Moscow. Men with higher education made PSA test more often (88 and 60%, respectively). Only 31% responders know why PSA test is made. Of men over 70 years of age in Moscow, 43% responders made PSA test for the first time at the age from 60 to 69 years, the rest patients made it at the age 70 years and older. In Omsk, 88% responders made PSA test at the age of 70 and older. In men aged 40-49 years a mean IPSS point was 4, QOL--3. The highest IPSS (20 points) and QOL (4 points) were registered in men over 70. Among the responders over 70 years old, 38% were sexually active. The results of our questionnaire survey demonstrate that age of the patients who undergo PSA test in Moscow and Omsk is over 70. Quality of life is not adequately understandable for elderly questionnaire responders and should be simplified. Regular check-ups are effective for early detection of prostatic cancer and other diseases. |
