简要总结
Disability in daily living activities (ADL) is a typical issue among nursing care residents. The goal of this study was to look at the geriatric syndromes that cause incapacity in nursing home residents.
详细描述
More often than not, people who live in nursing homes can't move out. One of the main reasons they leave their own home is to lose their freedom. Nursing homes also have a lot of people with geriatric diseases like cognitive impairment, balance problems, urinary incontinence, and disability. But it's not known what role geriatric syndromes play in ADL impairment. To come up with good ways to treat geriatric syndromes, which are the main causes of ADL disability in nursing home patients, we need to know more about them. So, the point of this study was to look into geriatric syndromes that are linked to disability and find out what causes disability in nursing home patients.

结局指标
主要结局
frailty
时间窗: 5 minute
FRAIL includes five items that evaluate ambulation, weight loss, fatigue, diseases, and resistance. Each item receives a value of 0 or 1, for a total score ranging from 0 (best) to 5 (worst). A score of 3 shows frailty, a score of 1-2 indicates prefrailty, and a score of 0 indicates robustness.
disability
时间窗: 5 minute
The Barthel Index (BI) was used to determine the level of disability in ADL. The indicator has a maximum total score of 100, indicating that the individual is entirely autonomous in all physical functions. The lowest possible score is 0; this indicates that the individual is entirely dependent.
