Support measures for community-dwelling elderly persons receiving home care based on their excretion function and assessment of caregiver capacity

本研究通过对社区居住的居家护理的失禁老年人的尿路状况和排尿习惯，以及家庭照顾者的护理状况进行调查，以明确影响排尿习惯的因素，并制定相应的支持措施。在与老年患者直接相关的因素中，与仅使用成人纸尿裤的患者相比，使用成人纸尿裤组合的患者有强烈的排尿欲望，在移动和移动过程中具有高度独立的动作顺序，并能识别和正确使用厕所的比例更高。照顾者因素未观察到显著相关性。

The present study investigated the urinary status and urination practices of community-dwelling elderly people with incontinence who are receiving home care, as well as the caregiving status of their family caregivers, in order to clarify factors related to urination practices and develop support measures . Regarding factors directly related to elderly patients, the proportion of patients who perceived the urge to urinate, who had a high degree of independence in transfers and in the sequence of movements accompanying transfers, and who could recognize and correctly use the toilet was higher among those who used a combination of the toilet and adult diapers compared to those who used only adult diapers. No significant correlations were observed for caregiver factors.
