Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we conducted two design studies: "A survey on skin care of older residents of nursing home in Japan" and " A quasi-randomized pilot trial between two groups: using skin care cosmetics and those who do not".
There was no difference in the number of times residents washed their faces and bathed depending on whether they needed assistance or not, and there was no relationship with the lack of staff. In addition, it was shown that staff of facilities that leave the skincare of residents to individuals had heavy burden.Furthermore, the trial showed a significant increase in self-body image only in the skin care group, and it was found that continued skin care helped to maintain and improve the body image of the elderly and increased their self-esteem.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

国内外の医療・福祉の分野における化粧品を使った活動の効果検証は、多くが事前事後デザインで、偽薬効果(被験者が化粧の効果を期待することによる効果)を排除した効果を検証する必要があった。本研究では、実際の施設入所高齢者を対象とし、スキンケアの継続を介入とした比較対照試験によって、それらが及ぼす効果について科学的に検証したところに学術的意義がある。
本研究によって、スキンケアの継続は、高齢者のボディイメージの維持・向上に役立つことを示した。高齢者の看護実践における日々のケアは、病気に関する臨床ケアだけでなく、個人の精神的および感情的な幸福にも焦点を当てるべきであることが明らかになった。
