Trajectories of Disability and Their Relationship with Health Status and Social Service Use

Abstract: These findings identify disability to be a highly dynamic process, which can be characterized into different trajectory clusters (e.g., no, mild, and major disability clusters). A greater awareness of these trajectories could be used to better target strategies to prevent and/or manage disabilities in an aging population.

“…According to Chen and colleagues, it is important to study disability as a process over time since it is very informative on the disability process of an aging population ( 4 ). So, a comprehensive follow-up of functional impairment rates and its relationship with disability over time may be the basic strategy to find out which factors contribute to a greater or lesser risk of disability and, thus, to promote strategies to a healthier aging process.…”

Por consiguiente, el seguimiento integral de las tasas de deterioro podría constituir una herramienta pertinente para conocer qué factores contribuyen a un mayor o menor riesgo del mismo y, de esta manera, se podrían impulsar con mayor facilidad estrategias específicas que estén dirigidas a fomentar un proceso satisfactorio de envejecimiento (Tomás et al, 2018).…”
