Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

General objectives of the project

Defining healthy ageing factors; Setting up content-related bases of the international excellence centre (SLO-ITA) in the field of health of elderly citizens; Raising awareness on the significance of healthy ageing, social inclusion and mobility of less privileged populations (the elderly); Reducing the costs of health care; Connecting the existing health care, social and private entities and improving their mutual coordination.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Other: Longitudinal observation

Detailed Description

Physical activity, dietary habits, social and private entities strongly affect the quality of health and quality of life of the elderly. The main object of this study will be to evaluate physical and cognitive performance in combination with physical activity and dietary habits of the elderly. The investigators are interested in longitudinal monitoring of the elderly that participated in measurements in 2013 and measurements after a decade. The results of this study will give important epidemiological information about physical and cognitive status, health status in combination with physical activity which occurs in a longer period of time.
