Abstract
Background: This study examines the efficacy of an intelligent medical-elderly care integration model for improving quality of life among homebound seniors in Yuhua District, Changsha, China.
Methods: A randomized controlled trial was conducted from May 2022 to April 2024 with 100 participants allocated equally to control and intervention groups through convenience sampling. While both groups received standard care, the intervention group additionally received intelligent care services. Outcomes were assessed using Activities of Daily Living (ADL), Physical Activity Performance (PAP), and Social-Cognitive Adaptation Assessment (SCAA) scales.
Results: The intervention group demonstrated statistically significant improvements across all measures (P<0.05), with particularly notable outcomes in disability level transitions: moderate disability cases increased from 26% to 70%, while severe cases decreased from 58% to 14% (P<0.05). Comparative analysis revealed the intervention group significantly outperformed controls in PAP and SCAA scores (P<0.05).
Conclusion: The intelligent care model proves effective in enhancing functional capacity and reducing care dependency among homebound elderly, offering valuable insights for elderly care service optimization. Further research should explore long-term sustainability and cost-effectiveness.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Multidisciplinary Healthcare (JMDH) aims to represent and publish research in healthcare areas delivered by practitioners of different disciplines. This includes studies and reviews conducted by multidisciplinary teams as well as research which evaluates or reports the results or conduct of such teams or healthcare processes in general. The journal covers a very wide range of areas and we welcome submissions from practitioners at all levels and from all over the world. Good healthcare is not bounded by person, place or time and the journal aims to reflect this. The JMDH is published as an open-access journal to allow this wide range of practical, patient relevant research to be immediately available to practitioners who can access and use it immediately upon publication.
