Abstract

The financial burden influences elderly individuals' health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Very little is understood concerning the association between financial strain and HRQoL in vulnerable groups. This study aimed to examine the relationships among financial load and HRQoL of Odisha who suffer from chronic illness, along with cancer. Techniques: Throughout this cross-sectional investigation, 72 Citizens of Odisha (aged 60-89) with one or maybe more chronic diseases took part in a randomized preliminary trial. We investigated financial burden components using factor analysis. A 27-point FACT-G (Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General) was applied to measure HRQoL. The correlations among financial burden and HRQoL sub-dimension were investigated using multiple linear regression. The factor analysis showed three financial burden constructs: health costs issues, financial burden medication compliance, and monetary stress. The financial burden was related to lower HRQoL throughout various areas in this research of older adults of Odisha with chronic conditions.

以健康为基础的优质生活和印度慢性病患者的经济负担

经济负担影响老年人健康相关生活质量(HRQoL)。人们对弱势群体的财务压力与HRQoL之间的关系了解甚少。本研究旨在研究奥里萨邦患有慢性疾病和癌症的人的经济负担与HRQoL之间的关系。技术:在整个横断面调查中，72名患有一种或多种慢性疾病的奥里萨邦公民(60-89岁)参加了一项随机初步试验。我们使用因子分析来调查财务负担的组成部分。采用27分FACT-G (Cancer therapeutic Functional Assessment of Cancer therapy general)衡量HRQoL。采用多元线性回归分析财务负担与HRQoL子维度的相关性。因子分析显示三个财务负担结构:健康成本问题、财务负担药物依从性和货币压力。在这项研究中，经济负担与奥里萨邦患有慢性疾病的老年人的HRQoL降低有关。
