Research Abstract |
Independent elderly living in a town were divided into the following three groups : 1) non-frail elderly, 2) frail elderly who participated in a life function test, and 3) frail elderly who did not participate in a life function test. During a 2-year follow-up period, 168 subjects developed the need for long-term care. The incidence of new onset of needs for long-term care(/1000 persons) for each group were 1) 24.0, 2) 93.2, 3) 149.5. After adjustment for confounding factors, we found that Possible frail elderly who did not participate in the life function test had a further increased risk of developing the need for long term care, compared to possible frail elderly who participated in that test. This result suggests the need for the identification of potentially frail elderly, and for the development of a system that would increase their participation in a long-term care prevention project.
