METHODS: An observational clinical and economic study of a typical practice of CD and PU. In the study taken forms of 85 patients, analyzed in 7 critical points each. Patients had a higher risk of CD and PU. The average age - 76 ± 5,6 years. RESULTS: Patients without CD and PU - 25 persons (29.8%), with PU 50 persons (58.8%), with CD 35 persons (41.1%). In 19 patients (22.4%) had and PU and CD in various critical areas. CD was marked in 75 points (12.6%), PU 1-2st - 93 points (15.6%), PU 3-4st - 8 points (1.3%). Total costs in rubles (1$ US = 34 ₷) for 1 patient in the group without the CD and PU were 12895, drugs -325, on care products -391, for services -12179. In the group "PU 1-2st" total costs 13546, on drugs -267, at the expense of care -769, for services -12510. In the group "PU 3-4st " total costs 25290, on drugs –161, on care products -4356, for services - 20 773. In the group of "KD" total costs 16027, on drugs -146, on care products 1349, for services – 14532. CONCLUSIONS: The frequency of PU is 58.8%, KD - 41.1%, KD and PU - 22.4%. Without CD and PU - 29.8%. Total costs are the biggest in group of patients with high degrees of PU, due to the high cost of services and care products. Drug costs are not high. A high cost in the CD group is associated with services and care. The data will be used to construct a Markov model.
