"It was absolutely crucial for the report to take age-based health inequalities into account, as it has now done. Age-based health inequalities result in limited access to adequate healthcare and innovative treatments. Older people should be able to make use of medications which have been tested for effectiveness and safety on people of the same age. People of this age group are still excluded too often from clinical trials. The average age of patients participating in clinical trials of treatments for high blood pressure is 63, yet 44% of patients are older than 70 when first diagnosed with this problem. Without further ado, the Union and the Member States must plan for the social and economic consequences of an ageing European population and take this demographic change into account."@en1
