目前，美国65岁以上的人口超过3890万。其中多达360万人被认为是足不出户，需要家庭护理。虽然没有具体界定“居家状态”，但残疾程度各不相同，显然居家者患有多种医疗和精神疾病。本文回顾了目前的文献，以确定具体的身体和精神因素最负责的老年人成为和保持足不出户。居家老年人患代谢、心血管、脑血管和肌肉骨骼疾病以及认知障碍、痴呆和抑郁症的比率高于一般老年人口。本综述中的信息将解释居家人群需要的特定类型的护理，并讨论可以帮助减轻他们的痛苦和延迟他们进入养老院或医院的护理。
There are currently more than 38.9 million people over the age of 65 in the United States. Up to 3.6 million of these people are considered housebound and in need of home-based care. Although homebound status is not defined specifically, with a broad range of disability levels, it is evident that people who are homebound suffer from a multitude of medical and psychiatric illnesses. This review examines the current literature to identify the specific physical and psychiatric factors most responsible for the elderly becoming and remaining housebound. The homebound elderly suffer from metabolic, cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and musculoskeletal diseases, as well as from cognitive impairment, dementia and depression, at higher rates than the general elderly population. The information in this review will explain the specific types of care the homebound population need, and discuss the care that could help ease their suffering and delay their entry into a nursing home or hospital.
