Abstract: Pruritus is a relatively common symptom that anyone can experience at any point in their life and is more common in the elderly. Pruritus in elderly can be defined as chronic pruritus in a person over 65 years old. The pathophysiology of pruritus in elderly is still unclear, and the quality of life is reduced. Generally, itch can be clinically classified into six types: Itch caused by systemic diseases, itch caused by skin diseases, neuropathic pruritus, psychogenic pruritus, pruritus with multiple factors, and from unknown causes. Senile pruritus can be defined as a chronic pruritus of unknown origin in elderly people. Various neuronal mediators, signaling mechanisms at neuronal terminals, central and peripheral neurotransmission pathways, and neuronal sensitizations are included in the processes causing itch. A variety of therapies are used and several novel drugs are being developed to relieve itch, including systemic and topical treatments. Keywords: elderly; ion channel; itch; neurotransmission pathophysiology of itch; pruritogen; senile pruritus; treatment of itch 1.

  • 1 Skin Infections Among Elderly Living in Long-Term Care Facilities
    1 Skin Infections Among Elderly Living in Long-term Care Facilities Michelle K. Kotti, BSN, MSN, FNP-BC University of Texas at Austin Introduction In the U.S. today, the population of individuals who are 65 years of age and older is increasing (U.S. Census Bureau, 2018), and nurses, as frontline health care providers, are increasingly becoming a conduit for healthy senior living. This module therefore focuses specifically on adults ≥65 years of age with skin infections, a healthcare concern that is especially important among those who are living in long-term care facilities (LTCF). Recent articles on cutaneous infections among those in LCTF are few; indeed more studies of skin infections have been conducted in Europe and Asia than in the U.S. Cutaneous infections are the third most common infection diagnosed in LTCF, preceded only by respiratory infections and infections of the urinary tract (Jump et al., 2008). The cutaneous infections commonly mentioned are cellulitis, angular cheilitis, folliculitis, fungal infections, impetigo, herpes simplex/zoster, and scabies (de Castro & Ramos-e-Silva, 2018). In addition, the skin reflects individuals’ internal health, with a unique and sensitive ability to present manifestations of underlying diseases and even malignancy (Hall, 2006). As a result, the information provided here may lead to additional questions, but it will facilitate our ability to recognize the early signs and symptoms of skin infections so that we can make a difference. Prevention is one of the best defenses. Of course the many health issues associated with the aging process and the immune system’s decline can be a challenge as well (de Castro & Ramos-e-Silva, 2018).
