Introduction: Nepal like many other developing countries in the world is witnessing the rapid ageing of population. Quality of life (QOL) of elderly people is becoming even more relevant towards an ageing society. In Nepal, less is known regarding special needs and quality of life of elderly people either in familial situations or in old age residences. Objectives: The present study was undertaken to assess and compare the quality of life of elderly living with the family and in old age home. Methodology: A Cross sectional descriptive study was conducted from October 2016 to April 2017 among elderly population aged 60 years and above. A total of 50 elderly people were enrolled from old age home (OAH) using total enumeration sampling technique and equal number of sample was selected from the family setting. QOL of elderly was assessed using WHOQOL-BRIEF questionnaire after taking informed consent from the participants. Data was analyzed using SPSS. Results: The mean scores of QOL domains were better among the age group 60-70 years, males, married, literates and who had children. The mean scores of QOL in physical, psychological and environmental domains were better in elderly living with the family than living in OAH. Low scores were found on social domain among elderly compared to other domain irrespective of their residence. Conclusion: QOL score among elderly is average, while social relationship domain of QOL scores was found to be low. Social activities should be expanded for these residents in order to promote social health. The QOL which each individual possesses is very important in all aspects be it physical, psychological, social & environmental. Furthermore, programs that help elderly people live in their own homes and social environments should be promoted.BIBECHANA 16 (2019) 221-227

Background Menopause is one of the natural phenomena in every woman’s life. The transition phase gradually brings lots of changes in the life of women, both physically and mentally. In Nepal, these changes are often viewed as the symptoms of old age. This study aims to determine the prevalence of menopausal symptoms and their quality of life (QOL). Methods A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in a rural municipality of Jhapa district, Nepal, with study samples of 215 collected using purposive sampling technique. Semistructured questionnaire and MENQOL questionnaire were used for data collection. Descriptive (mean, standard deviation, frequency and percentage) and inferential statistics (t-test and ANOVA test) were used for data analysis. The confidence interval was taken as 95% and probability of significance at p < 0.05. Results The study showed that the mean age of the respondents was 53.51 ± 4.42 years with the mean age at menopause being 47.18 ± 6.16 years. The most prevalent symptoms among postmenopausal women were feeling tired or worn out (98.8%), followed by decrease in stamina (94%), decrease in physical strength (91.2%) and lack of energy (90%). The highest mean score was seen in physical domain (2.88 ± 1.61) followed by sexual (2.77 ± 1.93), vasomotor (2.65 ± 1.84) and psychosocial (2.45 ± 1.55). The overall mean score of QOL was found to be 80.06 ± 24.52. Marital status, number of children, educational status, occupational status and health seeking behaviour had significant association with the QOL score. Conclusion The most common symptoms experienced by the postmenopausal women were the physical symptoms followed by sexual, vasomotor and psychosocial. Presence of these symptoms certainly affects the QOL. Hence, effective awareness and education programme regarding the symptoms and ways to minimize those symptoms should be planned and provided both at individual and community levels.
