Az gören yaşlı bireylerde günlük yaşam aktiviteleri ve yaşam kalitesinin mobilite ile ilişkisi: karşılaştırmalı bir çalışma

Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışma az gören yaşlı bireylerde günlük yaşam aktiviteleri ve yaşam kalitesinin mobilite ile ilişkisini incelemek amacıyla planlandı. Yöntem: Çalışmaya 60 yaş ve üzeri 30 az gören ve 30 normal görmeye sahip yaşlı birey katıldı. Çalışmaya dahil edilen bireylerin mobilite fonksiyonu Tinetti’nin Performansa Dayalı Mobilite Değerlendirmesi ile, günlük yaşam aktiviteleri Günlük Görme Aktiviteleri Skalası ile, yaşam kaliteleri Kısa Form–36 Yaşam Kalitesi Anketi ile değerlendirildi. Sonuçlar: Normal görmeye sahip bireylerin mobilite fonksiyonları, günlük yaşam aktiviteleri ve yaşam kalitesi az görenlerle karşılaştırıldığında normal görenlerin lehine istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark bulundu (p
