| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Aiming to construct a home rehab model for older adults with chronic pain, this study identified three main points. 1) Older adults who have undergone surgery for lumbar spinal canal stenosis but still have pain may have low health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and may be eligible for home-based health promotion programs. 2) A model was established that physical activity, an adaptive pain coping, has a positive impact on HRQOL. This suggests that promoting physical activity may improve HRQOL. 3) Physical activity can be quantitatively captured using activity meters.Therefore, it is appropriate as a key indicator in a home-based physical activity improvement program.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究を通じ、腰部脊柱管狭窄症の手術を受けてもなお痛みが残っている人が一定数いることが明らかとなった。また、身体活動が痛みとは独立して生活の質に良い影響を与えていることや、身体活動を活動量計を用いることで数値で見える化することができそうであることも確認することができた。これらの成果は、慢性的な痛みに悩まされている人々の生活の質を改善させるため在宅運動プログラムの立案・実行の基礎となる。
