| | | | Summary: | The Survey on Health, Well-Being, and Aging in Latin
America and the Caribbean (Project SABE) was conducted during 1999 and
2000 to examine health conditions and functional limitations of
persons aged 60 and older in the countries of Argentina, Barbados,
Brazil, Chile, Cuba, Mexico, and Uruguay, with special focus on
persons over 80 years of age. Project SABE was administered in the
official language of each country: Spanish in Buenos Aires
(Argentina), Mexico City (Mexico), Santiago (Chile), Havana (Cuba),
and Montevideo (Uruguay), English in Bridgetown (Barbados), and
Portuguese in Sao Paulo (Brazil). Goals of the project were to (a)
describe the health conditions of older adults (aged 60 and older with
special focus on persons over 80) with regard to chronic and acute
diseases, disability, and physical and mental impairment, (b) evaluate
the extent to which older adults used and had access to health care
services, including services that are outside the formal system (local
healers, traditional medicine), (c) evaluate the proportional
contribution by principal sources of support -- relatives and family
networks, public assistance, and private resources (income, assets) --
towards meeting the health-related needs of older adults, (d) evaluate
access to health insurance offered by private organizations,
governmental institutions, and mixed systems, as well as the extent to
which that insurance was actually used, (e) analyze the differentials
in the self-evaluation of health conditions, access to health care,
and sources of support with regard to socioeconomic group, gender, and
birth cohort, (f) evaluate the relationships between strategic factors
-- health-related behavior, occupational background, socioeconomic
status, gender, and cohort -- and health conditions, according to the
health evaluation at the time of the survey, and (g) carry out
comparative analyses in countries that share similar characteristics
but that differ with regard to such factors as the role of family
support, public assistance, access to health services, and
health-related behavior and exposure to risk. Demographic variables
include age, sex, race, level of education, birthplace, religion,
ethnic group, marital status, and income. Also examined were cognitive
status, health status, functional status, nutritional status, and use
and accessibility of services |
