Abstract

Purpose:This study was conducted to examine the individuals residing in a nursing home, regarding the relationship between depression, functional independence of gait, and balance function. Material and Methods: Individuals were selected by random sampling method. All individuals underwent Tinetti Balance and Gait Test, Geriatric Depression Scale and the Functional Independence Measure (FIM). The percentages of data were calculated by descriptive analysis and the relationship between variables were examined with Spearman correlation test. Results: 26 women (mean age: 80.34±6.79) 7 men (mean age: 73.57±9.57) attended our study from nursing home. Duration of nursing home stay was 7.57±7.17 years. The total FIM score was found 105.64±18.44. The total Geriatric Depression Scale score was found 12.3±6.71. The total Tinetti Balance and Gait Test score was found 16.76±7.55. A positive correlation was found between FIM and Tinetti Balance and Gait Test (p<0.001 ; r=0.610). A negative moderate correlation was found between Geriatric Depression Scale and Tinetti Balance and Gait Test (p<0.004; r=-0.497). A correlation was not found between FIM and Geriatric Depression Scale (p<0.2 ; r= -0.277). conclusion: According to our study nursing home resident’ gait and balance function was inversely correlated with depression and directly correlated with functional independence

Abstract (Turkish)

Huzurevinde Yaşayan Geriatrik BireylerdeDenge ve Yürüme Fonksiyonları ile Depresyonve Fonksiyonel Bağımsızlık Arasındaki İlişkininİncelenmesi

Amaç: Çalışma, bir huzurevinde yaşayan bireylerde yürüme ve denge fonksiyonları ile fonksiyonel bağımsızlık ve depresyon arasındaki ilişkiyi araştırmak amacıyla yapılmıştır. Gereç ve yöntem: Geriatrik bireyler rastgele örneklem yöntemiyle seçilip çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Tüm bireylere Tinetti Denge ve Yürüme Testi (TDYT), Geriatrik Depresyon Ölçeği (GDÖ) ve Fonksiyonel Bağımsızlık Ölçeği (FBÖ) uygulanmıştır. Verilerin yüzdelik dağılımları tanımlayıcı analiz yöntemiyle hesaplanmış ve değişkenler arasındaki ilişki Spearman korelasyon testiyle incelenmiştir. Sonuçlar: Çalışmamıza huzurevinde yaşayan 26’sı kadın (yaş ort: 80.34±6.79 yıl ), 7’si erkek (yaş ort: 7,57±9,57 yıl ) olmak üzere 33 kişi katılmıştır. Kişilerin huzurevinde kalma süreleri 7.57 ± 7.17 yıldır. Bireylerin toplam FBÖ skoru 105,64±18,44, toplam GDÖ skoru 12,3± 6,71, Toplam TDYT skoru ise 16,76±7,55 olarak bulunmuştur. FBÖ ile TDYT skorları arasında pozitif yönde iyi derecede ilişki vardır ( p<0.001 ; r=0.610). GDÖ ile TDYT skorları arasında negatif yönde orta derecede ilişki vardır (p<0.004 ; r=-0.497). FBÖ ile GDÖ arasında anlamlı bir sonuç bulunamamıştır (p<0.2 ; r= -0.277). Tartışma: Çalışmamızın sonuçlarına göre huzurevinde yaşayan bireylerin yürüme ve denge fonksiyonlarındaki artış depresyonu azaltmakta, fonksiyonel bağımsızlık düzeyini ise arttırmaktadır
