The purpose of the study. The study of the characteristics of quality of life indicators before and after the school on arterial hypertension (AH) in elderly and senile patients with AH. Materials and methods. 105 patients selected for study at school were examined at the age of 45 years and older. The survey included the study of quality of life (QoL) and factors affecting its decline before and after training. Results. According to the study, it was found that the total score of QoL before and after the school on hypertension corresponded to a decrease in QоL of mild degree and did not differ between the compared groups. Some differences were noted in the elderly group in terms of restriction in physical education and sports and in the group of senile age relative. After the school on AH, there was an increase in the percentage of people with normal QoL levels in the comparison and old age groups. The results of the assessment of the acquired knowledge in the school of patients with AH in the elderly (18,73 points) were comparable with elderly patients (19,12 points) and the comparison group (20,16 points), which proves the feasibility of schools on AH in individuals of this age. Conclusion. The results of this study allow us to draw conclusions about the advisability of holding schools of the AH among elderly and senile age groups.
