        Hui Meng Tan,Wei Phin Tan,Jun Hoe Wong,Christopher Chee Kong Ho,Chin Hai Teo,Chirk Jenn Ng 대한비뇨의학회 2014 Investigative and Clinical Urology Vol.55 No.11

        Purpose: The proposed Men’s Health Index (MHI) aims to provide a practical and systematicframework for comprehensively assessing and stratifying older men with theintention of optimising their health and functional status. Materials and Methods: A literature search was conducted using PubMed from 1980to 2012. We specifically looked for instruments which: assess men’s health, frailty andfitness; predict life expectancy, mortality and morbidities. The instruments were assessedby the researchers who then agreed on the tools to be included in the MHI. Whenthere was disagreements, the researchers discussed and reached a consensus guidedby the principle that the MHI could be used in the primary care setting targetting menaged 55-65 years. Results: The instruments chosen include the Charlson’s Combined Comorbidity-AgeIndex; the International Index of Erectile Function-5; the International ProstateSymptom Score; the Androgen Deficiency in Aging Male; the Survey of Health, Ageingand Retirement in Europe Frailty Instrument; the Sitting-Rising Test; the SeniorFitness Test; the Fitness Assessment Score; and the Depression Anxiety StressScale-21. A pilot test on eight men was carried out and showed that the men’s healthindex is viable. Conclusions: The concept of assessing, stratifying, and optimizing men’s health shouldbe incorporated into routine health care, and this can be implemented by using the MHI. This index is particularly useful to primary care physicians who are in a strategic positionto engage men at the peri-retirement age in a conversation about their life goalsbased on their current and predicted health status.
