Introduction: Global ageing is the success story of the 21st century as a result of declining fertility, mortality and improved public health interventions. With the increased elderly population, the attitude of societies about ageing changes. Positive attitudes towards the elderly people are valued, respected and experienced but most of the literature shows negative perceptions towards elderly people among the youth, especially in the form of stereotypical behaviors and ageism which can result in social exclusion, isolation and ultimately the abuse of elderly people and disempowerment of elderly people. Methods: Cross sectional research design was used to assess the attitude of youth towards the elderly people in the selected community of Lalitpur, Nepal from August 12 to September 7, 2018. Total 380 youth were interviewed by using modified Kogan’s Old People Scale and structured questions. Systematic random sampling technique was used for data collection. Results: More than half of the youth (66.1%) had positive attitude level towards the elderly. With regards to the attitude towards the care of elderly almost of all of the youth (97.9%) had positive attitude towards the care of the elderly. There was significant association between gender and attitude towards elderly (p=0.04) and occupation and attitude towards the care of the elderly (p=0.02) at 95% of significance level. Conclusion: Although more than half of the youth have positive attitude toward the elderly people still there is need to provide awareness program regarding the physical, physiological and psychological changes that occurs during the ageing period which helps in enhancing the positive attitude of the youth and thus contributing towards overall quality of life of the elderly people.

La incidencia máxima es entre la segunda y las terceras décadas de la vida. Aunque la mayoría de los pacientes con apendicitis aguda tiene enfermedad no complicada, la apendicitis complicada es relativamente común con una incidencia similar para todos los grupos de edad.  Hemos encontrado que personas de edad avanzada cada vez más están siendo diagnosticados con apendicitis aguda, aunque ya en una etapa posterior de enfermedad. Algunos autores han sugerido que la apendicitis en el anciano es comúnmente asociada con un retraso en el diagnóstico y una alta tasa de complicaciones. En nuestro estudio encontramos que el sexo masculino fue predominante, así mismo la mayor frecuencia se encontró en Trujillo, teniendo el 2012 el año de mayor número de casos. El propósito del estudio fue determinar la prevalencia y la evolución de la apendicitis aguda en los pacientes del Hospital Belén de Trujillo, procedentes del departamento La Libertad, con datos tomados del archivo del Hospital Belén de Trujillo, durante el quinquenio 2011-2015, para poder tener una visión de la realidad de esta patología tan frecuente, pero en nuestra región. Descriptores: apendicitis, prevalencia, evolución. Abstract Acute appendicitis is the most common surgical emergency around the world, and that appendectomy is one of the most common surgical procedures. The peak incidence is between the second and the third decade of life. Although the majority of patients with acute appendicitis has uncomplicated illness, complicated appendicitis is relatively common with an incidence similar for all age groups.  We have found that more and more elderly people are being diagnosed with appendicitis, although in a later stage of disease. Some authors have suggested that the appendicitis in the elderly is commonly associated with a delay in the diagnosis and a high rate of complications. We also found that within the Department La Libertad, the patients from nearby provinces attend is with more incidence geographically, although we also found very remote places patients who often are the complicated. The purpose of the study is intended to determine the prevalence and evolution of the acute appendicitis in the La Libertad Department, with data taken from the archive of the Hospital Belen of Trujillo, during the five-year period 2011-2015, in order to have a glimpse of the reality of this disease so prevalent, but in our region.
