Sammanfattning
218 chronically ill or elderly (65 years or over) home- nursed patients and home-help clients were studied to obtain information about the degree of disability, factors associated with disability, and predictors of disability. Previously measured disability, dementia, neurological disease, restrictions in mobility, and female sex were all predictive of disability after 28 months.
