(Norwegian Bureau of Statistics, 2001) Norwegians spend more per capita expenditure on caring for the elderly than any other country in the world. Nearly 10% of the annual budget is used to provide facilities and services to satisfy the citizen's government guarantee. In addition to necessary assistance and care, everyone can use free private apartments after retirement. (Indian Journal of Gerontology (2013)) As the largest service department, older care nursing accounts for more than a quarter of the local government's total budget, accounting for nearly 3% of GDP.
Background: The number of elderly people (80 years old) in Norway will increase significantly in the next 20 years and demand for medical services including intensive care will increase. The aim of this study was to understand whether the use and survival rates of intensive care unit (ICU) resources in elderly ICU patients are different from those of younger ICU patients. Materials and Methods: A retrospective cohort study comparing ICU patients (Group 1) from 50 to 79.9 years of age with patients over 80 years of age (Group 2), was enrolled in Norwegian intensive care unit from 2006 to 2009 It was. Subgroup analysis of 5 years for age group was conducted. RESULTS: A total of 27,921 patients were analyzed. The ICU / hospital mortality rate was 14.3% / 21.4% (Group 1) and 19.8% / 32.4% (Group 2). Total mortality increased with age, hospital mortality rate increased than ICU mortality rate. I can not observe the difference in entry categories
Are patients in the elderly intensive care unit few intensive care and high mortality rate?
If I push the answer, I would say that I am a Norwegian. However, I left Norway at the age of 18 and never went to Norwegian school. My other passport is German, but I have never lived there. I live in the UK in two-thirds of my adult life. This is the place where I studied at university and I paid the most taxes so far. I currently live in Sweden, the most I am missing is British humor, not Norwegian goat cheese.
In Japanese and Scandinavian there is a common origin to old English, the word "free" is very similar to English words. Frei in German, Vrij in Dutch, Danish, Swedish, Norwegian in fri. In either case, you can convert words into nouns named "free" or "free" by adding the appropriate tail. Therefore, you can use frihet in Freiheit in German, vrijheid in Dutch, frihed in Danish, Swedish and Norwegian. Let's say you want to choose the most appropriate word to represent the opposite of "free" now. If you think "free" means "free", you may say that the opposite is "expensive". However, the opposite of "expensive" is "cheap". Therefore, the opposite of "freedom" is to "use something". If you think of "freedom" in the sense of "freedom", you may say that the opposite of 'freedom' is 'imprisoned.' There is no doubt that the other side of the imprisoned guy is a free man.
