Objective
To examine the relationship between falls efficacy and the change in gait speed and functional status in older patients undergoing postacute rehabilitation. Design Prospective cohort study. Setting Postacute rehabilitation facility. Participants Patients (N=180) aged 65 years and older (mean age ± SD, 81.3±7.1y). Interventions Not applicable. Main Outcome Measures Data on demographics; functional, cognitive, and affective status; and falls efficacy using a 10-item version of the Falls Efficacy Scale (FES; range, 0-100) were collected upon admission. Data about gait speed and functional status (Barthel Index and Basic Activities of Daily Living [BADL]) were measured at admission and discharge. In addition, BADL performance was self-reported 1 month after discharge. Results Compared with admission, all rehabilitation outcomes improved at discharge: gait speed (0.41±0.15 m/s vs 0.50±0.16 m/s; P<.001 barthel index score vs p and badl adjusting for baseline status other potential confounders fes independently predicted gait speed coefficient: confidence interval ci at discharge with higher predicting greater improvement. was also associated self-reported performance the follow-up> Conclusions In older patients, higher falls efficacy predicted better gait and functional rehabilitation outcomes, independently of baseline performance. These results suggest that interventions aiming at falls efficacy improvement during rehabilitation might also contribute to enhancing gait speed and functional status in patients admitted to this setting. |
