Summary

This descriptive study was conducted on 100 patients who applied to the gynecology outpatient clinic to determine the effectiveness of the Geriatric Pain Measure (GPM) in elderly individuals. The data of the study were collected using the Patient Information Form, the GPM, and the Standardized Mini Mental State Examination (SMMSE). The mean GPM score of the elderly individuals, who had an average age of 70 (65-90), was found to be 27.37 (0-88), the sub-dimension mean scores were 9.52 (0-49.9), 7.14 (0-14.2), 4.76 (0-9.5), 2.38 (0-11.9), and 4.76 (0-11.9) respectively. It was determined that 54% of the patients had mild pain (0-29), 38% of them had moderate pain (30-69), and 8% of them had severe pain (70 and above). The findings of the present study were similar to the results of numerous other studies in which both the same scale and different scales were used to assess pain in elderly individuals.
