In implementing person-centered care, goals of care based on the patient's preferences are considered fundamental. Psychiatry is generally practiced in a curative paradigm, and little is known about the goals of care in geriatric psychiatric settings. In this study, goals of care as documented in care plans and medical records in geriatric psychiatric outpatient care have been explored, with a special focus on the end of life. <b>Methods:</b> This study was based on a descriptive qualitative content analysis of medical records of patients enrolled at an outpatient clinic for geriatric psychiatry at the time of death. It was complemented by a basic quantitative analysis of patient characteristics. <b>Results:</b> A total of 66 medical records were included, with a male/female ratio of 41/59% and a mean age of 83 years (66-104 years). Among psychiatric diagnoses, depression predominated. The dataset was generally limited, and clearly defined goals of care were sparsely presented. Therefore, the included medical records were analyzed twice: first regarding goals of care and second regarding patient wishes and requests. In both cases, the highest level of abstraction in terms of themes was achieved. Analysis of goals of care resulted in the themes patient well-being and care arrangements. Analysis of patient wishes resulted in the themes active patienthood and living and being. <b>Conclusion:</b> Goals of care were often disease-oriented, focusing on recovery or symptom management, whereas analysis of patients' wishes revealed personal goals other than remission, including outspoken existential needs.

Sleep quality, anxiety/depression, and worries were measured from their respective sections of the OASR.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The general linear regression models showed that poorer sleep quality was associated with an increased prevalence of anxiety/depression symptoms, worries, and SCD among older adults. As suggested by the mediation analysis, anxiety/depression and worries were significant mediators in the relationship between sleep quality and SCD prevalence, and these two factors also have a serial mediation effect between sleep quality and SCD prevalence.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Poorer sleep quality is associated with a higher rate of SCD among older adults, and a higher prevalence of anxiety/depression and worries mediate this relationship, suggesting possible mechanism pathways that lead to SCD. These factors may provide the basis for early, targeted interventions for older adults' mental health preservation and improved quality of life.</p>","PeriodicalId":14933,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Aging Research","volume":"2024 ","pages":"4946303"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11093690/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140921932","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
