Health risk assessment and control of the elderly under the reliability theory

BACKGROUND: Smoking is harmful to health. For the elderly who have smoked for a long time, smoking is likely to cause serious harm to their health. OBJECTIVE: This study was to explore the impact of smoking in the elderly, with Life-Course-Adjusted Number of Cigarettes Smoked per Day (LCS) and the Current Numbers of Cigarettes Smoked per Day (CCS) involved. METHODS: The control chart method and model method were adopted to study and analyse the lifestyle and health of the elderly. RESULTS: The value of LCS gradually increased with the age of the research subject. The elderly also faced high health risks of hypertension, myocardial infarction, and respiratory diseases. In addition, the corresponding OR values of the CCS value and the three diseases risks were all less than 1, proving that the CCS value and the three diseases risks were negatively correlated. CONCLUSIONS: The elderly health risk assessment based on reliable theory played a very important role in the health management of the elderly. Attention should be paid to the health risk assessment of the elderly in the follow-up research.
