[Micro data on the demand for care of dependent older people in Italy: A review of available sources].
Objectives: to provide researchers and stakeholders with an overview of the statistical sources of micro data available for estimating and studying the demand for care for dependent older people in Italy.
Design: analysis of questionnaires and variable displays from statistical surveys conducted on the resident population in Italy, selecting datasets that: 1. include at least one question on non-self-sufficiency and the related demand for care; 2. allow to distinguish the population by age groups; 3. are conducted uniformly at the national level and are representative of the population residing in Italy at least at NUTS-1 (nomenclature of statistical territorial units) level of geographic detail; 4. have periodicity character at least for the last ten years (2014-2024); 5. are immediately available for micro-analysis.
Setting and participants: all statistical surveys carried out on the Italian population between 2014 and 2024 that meet the requirements of the survey design. The most recent questionnaire is taken into account.
Main outcomes measures: selected surveys and number of questions identified in the selected surveys related to 9 sets of variables useful for studying the demand for care among dependent older people, including analyses of associations and correlations.
Results: the review identified 8 statistical surveys that can provide useful information for estimating and studying the demand for care for dependent older people, consistent with the objectives and design of the study. Six of these surveys are conducted by the Italian National Institute of Statistics (Istat) (EHIS, EU-SILC, IMF-AVQ, IMF-FSS, IMF-TUS, and ISF); two surveys are carried out by private consortia (ESS and SHARE). Not all groups of variables are simultaneously available in the datasets of the surveys considered, with the exception of the EHIS and SHARE surveys, but with severe limitations. In addition, some surveys allow regional statistics (NUTS-2), but none of them allow analyses at a more detailed territorial level.
Conclusions: no survey provides all the information useful for studying the demand for care of dependent older people, but sources have been identified which already allow demand to be estimated at sub-national level (NUTS-1 or NUTS-2) and correlations and associations with certain sets of variables to be investigated.
期刊介绍:
Epidemiologia & Prevenzione, oggi organo della Associazione italiana di epidemiologia, raccoglie buona parte delle migliori e originali esperienze italiane di ricerca epidemiologica e di studio degli interventi per la prevenzione e la sanità pubblica.
La rivista – indicizzata su Medline e dotata di Impact Factor – è un canale importante anche per la segnalazione al pubblico internazionale di contributi che altrimenti circolerebbero soltanto in Italia.
E&P in questi decenni ha svolto una funzione di riferimento per la sanità pubblica ma anche per i cittadini e le loro diverse forme di aggregazione. Il principio che l’ha ispirata era, e rimane, che l’epidemiologia ha senso se è funzionale alla prevenzione e alla sanità pubblica e che la prevenzione ha ben poche possibilità di realizzarsi se non si fonda su valide basi scientifiche e se non c’è la partecipazione di tutti i soggetti interessati.
Modalità di comunicazione aggiornate, metodologia statistica ed epidemiologica rigorosa, validità degli studi e solidità delle interpretazioni dei risultati sono la solida matrice su cui E&P è costruita. A questa si accompagna una forte responsabilità etica verso la salute pubblica, che oggi ha ampliato in forma irreversibile il suo orizzonte, e include in forma sempre più consapevole non solo gli esseri umani, ma l’intero pianeta e le modificazioni che l’uomo apporta all’universo in cui vive.
L’ambizione è che l’offerta di nuovi strumenti di comunicazione, informazione e formazione, soprattutto attraverso l''uso di internet, renda la rivista non solo un tradizionale veicolo di contenuti e analisi scientifiche, ma anche un potente strumento a disposizione di una comunità di interessi e di valori che ha a cuore la salute pubblica.
