About this study

Official title: The Effectiveness of Precision Nursing Intervention Program on Cognitive Function、Sleep Quality and Emotional State of Frail Female Elderly in the Community

Background: Taiwan's community population is aging rapidly, and women in the aging community account for the majority of frail elderly.In the process of aging, you must face changes in cognitive function, sleep disorders, and emotional state. Female elders have more impact on physical health than male elders. Precision nursing is a new trend in nursing in recent years. It is based on individual differences in disease type, gender, lifestyle, family, race, social and cultural factors, etc., to provide the most suitable empirical-based nursing treatment. It can also prevent and delay disability in improving the cognitive function, sleep quality and emotional state of frail female elderly in the community.

Purpose: This study explored the effectiveness of precision nursing intervention program on cognitive function,sleep quality and emotional state of frail female elderly in the community.

Methods: This study utilized a quasi-experimental research design. The subjects divided to 35 persons of experimental group and 35 people of comparison group. The experimental group implemented a weekly precision care program course for frail female elderly in the community for a total of 12 weeks; the control group maintained normal daily life. We collected cognitive function、sleep quality and emotional state from before and after intervention among frail female elderly in the community. The statistical methods uses were descriptive analysis, chi square, t test, generalized estimating equation (GEE), and difference-in-differences.

Expected benefit: The precise care plan of this study can benefit the cognitive function, sleep quality and emotional state of frail female elders in the community, and then extend it to various aging communities. According to the characteristics of the community elders and making good use of health policies and local resources, we will arrange and design appropriate courses to create a localized healthy aging life circle, and achieve the goal of preventing and delaying disability for the elderly and frail.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

    The Short Portable Mental Status Questionnaire (SPMSQ) is a widely used 10-item cognitive screening instrument,whose items test orientation to time and place, memory, current event information (date, day of the week, name of this place, telephone number, date of birth, age, name of current prime minister and previous prime minister, mother's maiden name), and calculation (subtract 3s starting with number 20). The total number of errors is computed and it ranges from 0 to 10.

    Measured: 1 week

  2. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, PSQI

    The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI),a self-rating questionnaire for measuring subjective sleep quality that specifically assesses the preceding I-month period . The PSQI yields a global score that is the sum of seven component scores, each of which addresses a specific aspect of subjective sleep quality.

For suicide prevention, the Taiwan BSRS-5 adds the sixth additional item that directly asks the subject about the urge of suicide attempts .
