Abstract

Abstract: Objective To investigate the cognitive function and the ability of the elderly in nursing institutions, and to analyze the correlation between cognitive function and ability. Methods A total of 593 elderly people living in nursing institution were enrolled in this study.The cognitive function was evaluated with Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE), and the ability of the elderly was assessed using the elderly Ability Assessment Scale(GB/T42195-2022). The ability of the elderly with different severity degrees of cognitive impairment were compared. Spearman correlation analysis was used to test the correlation between cognitive function and ability. Results The average score of MMSE was 14.69±10.44. There were 452 cases (76.2%) with MMSE score ≤24. The total average score of ability assessment in the elderly was 50.30±27.28, and only 17 cases (2.9%) presented with good ability. There was no significant difference in the ability between mild cognitive impairment group and normal cognitive function group, while the ability in severe cognitive impairment group and moderate cognitive impairment group was significantly lower than that in the other groups. There was a positive correlation between ability and cognitive function(r=0.724,P＜0.01). Conclusions The cognitive impairment of the elderly in nursing institution is prominent. When the elderly have cognitive impairment, especially severe cognitive dysfunction, the ability of the elderly decreases significantly.
