Summary

Disability in daily living activities (ADL) is a typical issue among nursing care residents. The goal of this study was to look at the geriatric syndromes that cause incapacity in nursing home residents.

Detailed description

More often than not, people who live in nursing homes can't move out. One of the main reasons they leave their own home is to lose their freedom. Nursing homes also have a lot of people with geriatric diseases like cognitive impairment, balance problems, urinary incontinence, and disability. But it's not known what role geriatric syndromes play in ADL impairment. To come up with good ways to treat geriatric syndromes, which are the main causes of ADL disability in nursing home patients, we need to know more about them. So, the point of this study was to look into geriatric syndromes that are linked to disability and find out what causes disability in nursing home patients.
