Abstract Background: Predicting incidence of long-term care insurance (LTCI) certification in the short term is of increasing importance in Japan. The present study examined whether the Kihon Checklist (KCL) can be used to predict incidence of LTCI certification (care level 1 or higher) in the short term among older Japanese persons.Methods: In 2015, the local government in Tokyo, Japan, distributed the KCL to all individuals older than 65 years who had not been certified as having a disability or who had already been certified as requiring support level 1–2 according to LTCI system. We also collected LTCI certification data within the 3 months after collecting the KCL data. The data of 17785 respondents were analyzed. First, we selected KCL items strongly associated with incidence of LTCI certification, using stepwise forward-selection multiple logistic regression. Second, we conducted receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analyses for three conditions (1: Selected KCL items, 2: The main 20 KCL items (nos. 1–20), 3: All 25 KCL items). Third, we estimated specificity and sensitivity for each condition.Results: During a 3-month follow-up, 81 (0.5%) individuals required new LTCI certification. Eight KCL items were selected by multiple logistic regression as predictive of certification. The area under the ROC curve in the three conditions was 0.92–0.93, and specificity and sensitivity for all conditions were greater than 80%.Conclusions: Three KCL conditions predicted short-term incidence of LTCI certification. This suggests that KCL items may be used to screen for the risk of incident LTCI certification.

Urinary Catheterisation

ObjectivesThis study aimed to identify factors associated with long-term urinary catheterisation (LTUC) in community-dwelling older adults and to evaluate the risk of urinary tract infection (UTI) among people with LTUC.DesignPopulation-based observational study.SettingMedical and long-term care insurance claims data from one municipality in Japan.ParticipantsPeople aged ≥75 years living at home who used medical services between October 2012 and September 2013 (n=32 617).Outcome measures(1) Use of LTUC, defined as urinary catheterisation for at least two consecutive months, to identify factors associated with LTUC and (2) the incidence of UTI, defined as a recorded diagnosis of UTI and prescription of antibiotics, in people with and without LTUC.ResultsThe 1-year prevalence of LTUC was 0.44% (143/32 617). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the male sex, older age, higher comorbidity score, previous history of hospitalisation with in-hospital use of urinary catheters and high long-term care need level were independently associated with LTUC. The incidence rate of UTI was 33.8 and 4.7 per 100 person-years in people with and without LTUC, respectively. According to multivariable Poisson regression analysis, LTUC was independently associated with UTI (adjusted rate ratio 2.58, 95% CI 1.68 to 3.96). Propensity score-matched analysis yielded a similar result (rate ratio 2.41, 95% CI 1.45 to 4.00).ConclusionsWe identified several factors associated with LTUC in the community, and LTUC was independently associated with the incidence of UTI.

Déclin Fonctionnel

RÉSUMÉChez les résidents en soins de longue durée (SLD), l’hospitalisation peut amener des complications telles que le déclin fonctionnel. L’objectif de notre étude était d’examiner l’association entre les données démographiques et de santé et le taux d’hospitalisation des résidents nouvellement admis en SLD. Nous avons mené une étude de cohorte rétrospective incluant tous les centres de SLD de six provinces et d’un territoire du Canada, à l’aide des données de la RAI-MDS 2.0 et de la Discharge Abstract Database. Nous avons inclus les résidents nouvellement admis ayant eu une évaluation entre le 1er janvier et le 31 décembre 2013 (n = 37 998). Les résidents de sexe masculin avec une santé plus instable et une déficience fonctionnelle de modérée à grave présentaient des taux d’hospitalisation plus élevés, tandis que les résidents avec une déficience cognitive de modérée à grave avaient des taux moindres. Les résultats de notre étude pourraient contribuer à l’identification des résidents nouvellement admis qui seraient plus à risque d’hospitalisation et à l’élaboration de stratégies préventives plus ciblées, incluant la réadaptation, la planification préalable de soins, les soins palliatifs et les services gériatriques spécialisés.
