Objective

To explore the level of intrinsic capacity in hospitalized elderly patients and its impact on their quality of life.

Methods

A total of 602 hospitalized elderly patients from Hubei,Henan,and Hunan provinces were selected as study subjects by a convenience sampling method from January to June 2024.Surveys were conducted using a general information questionnaire,the Intrinsic Capacity Screening Tool,and 36-item Short Form Health Survey.Univariate analysis,Spearman correlation analysis,and stepwise linear regression analysis were used to explore the influencing factors of quality of life in hospitalized elderly patients.

Results

The total intrinsic capacity score of hospitalized elderly patients was 3(2,4).The total quality of life score was 66.37±5.34.Regression analysis showed that the total intrinsic capacity score and its dimension scores,along with age,sex,living situation,medical expense payment method,per-capita household disposable income,pain,sleep problems,polypharmacy,and mode of admission,were all influencing factors on the quality of life in hospitalized elderly patients(all P<0.05).Among these,the dimensions of locomotion,psychological status,and vitality had more significant effects on quality of life.

Conclusions

The level of intrinsic capacity in hospitalized elderly patients affects their quality of life,with locomotion,psychological status,and vitality being the most significant dimensions.Medical staff may consider incorporating intrinsic capacity assessments into the early management of hospitalized patients.They could implement comprehensive interventions targeting key functional dimensions and modifiable factors so as to promote functional maintenance and to improve quality of life in hospitalized elderly patients.
