Background: Worldwide trends in health risks, lifestyle behaviors, health perceptions, and health-seeking patterns suggest alarming disparities among individuals from low- and middle-income countries. Such international comparisons are particularly troubling for older individuals (≥ 60 years).
Objectives: This study aims to compare health risks, lifestyle behaviors, health perceptions, and health-seeking patterns between younger (<60) and older (≥60) Filipinos from rural communities in the Philippines.
Methods: A comparative cross-sectional study was employed with 863 younger and 427 older Filipinos. Data were analyzed using frequencies, chi-squares, and T-tests.
Results: Older participants were more likely to be single/widowed, ≤ high school education and had higher rates of hypertension, high cholesterol, diabetes, and depression. They reported poorer health status and went to the village health center when sick. Furthermore, they were less likely to drink alcohol and see a physician.
Conclusion: There were significant differences in modifiable health risks and lifestyle behaviors and differences in health perceptions between younger and older cohorts of Filipinos living in rural areas in the Philippines. Our findings suggest the need to design separate health promotion interventions that target older and younger Filipinos' unique needs from rural communities.
背景：全球范围内的健康风险、生活方式行为、健康观念和寻求健康模式的趋势表明，中低收入国家的个人之间存在着令人担忧的差距。对于老年人（≥ 60 岁）来说，这种国际比较尤其令人担忧：本研究旨在比较年轻一代（≥60 岁）的健康风险、生活方式行为、健康观念和寻求健康的模式：对 863 名年轻菲律宾人和 427 名老年菲律宾人进行了横断面比较研究。采用频率、卡方和 T 检验对数据进行分析：结果：老年参与者更有可能是单身/丧偶者，学历低于高中，高血压、高胆固醇、糖尿病和抑郁症的发病率较高。他们的健康状况较差，生病时会去村卫生所。此外，他们较少饮酒和看医生：结论：生活在菲律宾农村地区的年轻菲律宾人和年长菲律宾人在可改变的健康风险和生活方式行为方面存在明显差异，在健康观念方面也存在差异。我们的研究结果表明，有必要针对农村社区菲律宾老年人和年轻人的独特需求，分别设计健康促进干预措施。

Health professionals need to be reminded that Primary Health Care (PHC) is an inclusive concept; it ecompasses not only curative medicine but broadly defined preventive health measures ranging from family planning services to the provision of adequate housing food and safe drinking water. The concept stresses the need to make it possible for all members of the communit to lead healthy lives by providing affordable PHC services. More specifically PHC as envisioned for South Africa and as defined by J. W. Bodenstein of the South African Department of Health Welfare and Pensions provides that all individuals have access to a wide range of 1) preventive services including maternal and child care family planning control of endemic diseases and health and nutritional education; 2) treatment services including emergency care treatment for minor illnesses and common endemic diseases and referral of patients in need of more specialized care; and 3) community services aimed at increasing food production improving communication and transportation facilities and improving health education. South Africas Health Act 63 passes in 1977 further expanded the concept to include rehabilitative services. In addition the PHC system should provide for 1) the active participation of the community 2) the integration of the PHC program into the countrys overall development plan 3) equitable health services for all segments of the population and 4) the creation of an infrastructure capable of supporting the program.
