Article Abstract

The review presents a literature analysis on the quality of medical care in general and the criteria for their assessment. The main discussion is conducted in several areas: what indicators are currently available; which of them can be used in elderly and senile age groups; what indicators should be used in this category of patients. Based on the review, it should be concluded, that the existing quality indicators do not reflect the specifics of providing care to elderly and senile people with chronic heart failure. It is concluded, that many issues have not yet been resolved and further research is needed on this issue. In our opinion, the assessment of the quality of medical care for chronic heart failure, primarily in elderly and senile patients, should be carried out taking into account age characteristics and using additional quality indicators, which should be introduced in a separate paragraph in the profile order.
