| Resumo: | Old age is a phenomenon that entails important changes at a biological, psychological, social,
economic and cultural level, in addition to the fact that one does not live in its natural state due
to a status imposed by the society to which we belong. Among the psychiatric reform process
and the field of mental health care, despite the advances acquired over time, there are
weaknesses and omissions related to mental health issues for the elderly. In a way, it is observed
that they did not benefit as subjects of this process, in addition to the fact that there is a lack of
studies in the field of mental health in old age, signaling the need for specific foundations and
knowledge aimed at mental health care in old age in its growing demands. Therefore, this
research aimed to analyze the main issues related to mental health in old age posed by the
literature in the latin american context, from an integrative literature review, in the SciELO,
Redalyc and LILACS databases, between 2011 and 2021, totaling 23 scientific articles for
analysis, which were categorized into the following themes: Representations of old age, aging
and stigmas related to the elderly as problems related to mental health; Profile of users and
users, mental health demands and mental health services; Use of medicines and medicalization
of old age; Suicide, bereavement and the worsening of mental health; Mental health,
sociocultural aspects and associated factors (gender, disabilities, risks and vulnerabilities); and
Practices and approaches in mental health care. It was concluded that the predominance of the
biomedical perspective regarding the processes of aging and old age and on the health concepts
and experiences of the elderly, based on the biological, mechanical-functional aspects of the
body and the curative apparatus, representative of our society's view of the capacities
production and consumption, which seems to contribute to stigmatization, exclusion and
medicalization of elderly people, demanding new knowledge and practices related to mental
health care and coping with these phenomena from the perspective of psychosocial care. |
