title: [The life quality of population belonging to senior age groups].
abstract: Described in the paper are issues related with the involution time in men and women, who are in the second period of their mature age, and with complications of the mentioned time interval affecting the life quality and its expectancy and aggravating the risk of sudden death. It was for the first time that the authors undertook a complex study of men and women of the mentioned age whose involution was physiological or complicated; they focused attention on the criterion specificity of the involution disregulations of different nature affecting the mean life expectancy and life quality in patients. The study results verify to the fact that the involution period is essentially influenced not only by endogenous but also by exogenous factors. It is pointed out as necessary to promote the primary prevention and outpatient follow-up of men and women aged above 40 for the purpose of exposing the factors of risk of involution complications and for the purpose of preventing early complications observed during the discussed life period. It is demonstrated that this would essentially improve the life quality in a significant share of the nation including patients aged above 40.
