Amaç: Sedanter yaşam tarzının yaşlıların sağlığını olumsuz etkilediği bilinmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı huzurevinde yaşayan yaşlı bireylerde sedanter yaşam tarzı ile yaşam kalitesi arasındaki ilişkiyi araştırmaktır.
Yöntem: Manisa'daki Huzurevleri bu kesitsel çalışmaya dahil edilmiş olup çalışmaya dahil edilen bireylerin toplam sayısı 181'dir ve veriler yaşlılarla yüz yüze görüşülerek toplanmıştır. Veri toplama formu 3 bölümden oluşmaktadır: Fiziksel Etkinliklerin Hızlı Değerlendirilme Ölçeği (RAPA 1 ve 2), Dünya Sağlık Örgütü Yaşam Kalitesi Ölçeği Yaşlı sürümü (WHOQOL-old) ve demografik özellikler. Yaşam kalitesi ile fiziksel aktivite ve yaşlıların diğer özellikleri arasındaki ilişkiyi değerlendirmek için bağımsız gruplarda t testi ve tek yönlü varyans analizi (ANOVA) kullanılmıştır. Değişkenler arasındaki anlamlı fark 0,05 düzeyinde yorumlanmıştır.
Bulgular: Cinsiyet dağılımı aşağıdaki gibidir: Kadın: % 31.5, erkek:% 68,5. Kronik hastalıklar %56.4 oranında iken, katılımcıların %73.5'in sedanter bir yaşam tarzı olduğu bulunmuştur. Sedanter yaşam tarzı ile yaşam kalitesi ölçeğinin toplam puanları (t: -7,124, p: 0,003), özerklik (t: -1,270, p: 0,005), faaliyetler (t-, 965, p: 0,043) ve duyusal yetenek (t: -2,172, p: 0,001) arasında negatif bir korelasyon bulunmuştur.
Sonuç: Yaşlıların yaşam kalitesini etkileyen birçok faktör olmasına rağmen, yaşlılarda sedanter yaşam tarzı ve WHOQOL-old ölçeğinin toplam puanları arasında anlamlı bir ilişki vardır. Huzurevlerinde yaşlıların daha aktif olmalarını sağlayacak hizmetler yer verilmelidir.

Purpose: It is known that sedentary lifestyle affects older adults’ health negatively. This study aim was to investigate the relationship between sedentary lifestyle and quality of life in elderly individuals living in a nursing home.
Methods: Nursing Homes in Manisa were included in this cross-sectional study. The total number of individuals included in the study was 181 and the data were collected via face-to-face interview with the elderly. The data collection form comprised 3 parts as follows: The Rapid Assessment of Physical Activity Scale (RAPA 1 and 2), World Health Organization Quality of Life Instrument Older Adults Module (WHOQOL-old) and demographic characteristics. Independent groups t-test and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) were used to evaluate the relationship between quality of life and physical activity and other characteristics of the elderly. The significant difference between the variables was interpreted at the level of 0.05.
Results: Gender distributions were as follows: female: 31.5%, male: 68.5%. While those with chronic diseases were 56.4%, the participants were found to have a sedentary lifestyle of 73.5%. There was found a negative correlation between sedentary lifestyle and total scores of quality of life scale (t: -7,124, p: 0,003), autonomy
(t: -1,270, p:0,005), activities (t-,965, p: 0,043), sensory ability (t: -2,172, p: 0,001) domains.
Conclusion: Although there are many factors that affect the elderly’s quality of life, there is a relationship between sedentary lifestyle and total scores of WHOQOL-old scale in the elderly. In the nursing homes, services should be provided to enable the elderly to be more active.
