Risk factors associated with functional decline in older hospital survivors with acute lower respiratory tract infections : a prospective cohort study
© 2024. The Author(s)..
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the dynamics of basic activity of daily living (BADL) in older patients with acute lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) during acute phase and to investigate risk factors associated with decreased physical function at discharge.
METHODS: We conducted a prospective cohort study of patients aged 65 years and older who were hospitalized for acute LRTIs between April 15, 2020 and January 15, 2023. All patients received geriatric assessment at admission, including emotion, cognition, frailty, physical function status and so on. The BADL was also evaluated by the Barthel Index (BI) at two weeks before admission by recall (baseline status), at admission and at discharge. Based on the BI grades at baseline and at discharge, patients were classified into two groups: ADL decline and no ADL decline. Multivariable adjusted logistic regression models were used to evaluate the risk factors of decreased physical function.
RESULTS: A total of 364 older survivors with LRTIs were included in the analysis. The median age was 74 years (IQR 61.0-82.0), 231 (62.6%) were male, the median length of stay was 10 days. In the geriatric assessment, 139 patients (38.2%) were classified as frailty, 137 patients (37.6%) experienced insomnia, 60 patients (16.5%) exhibited cognitive impairments, and 37 patients (10.2%) were defined as malnutrition. Additionally, 30 patients (8.2%) dealt with emotional disorders. On average, patients were taking 3 medications, and Charlson Comorbidity Index score was 4. 72 patients (19.8%) had function decline at discharge. In the multivariable analysis, frailty status had an odds ratio of 4.25 (95% CI 1.31-19.26) for decreased physical function and cognitive impairment had an odds ratio of 2.58 (95% CI 1.27-5.19).
CONCLUSIONS: About 20% older patients with LRTIs experienced functional decline at discharge. Compared to age, severity of diseases and length of stay, frailty and cognitive impairment performed better at predicting the function decline. The apply of geriatric assessment may contribute to enhance the quality of management and treatment for patients with the older with LRTIs.
