Objective: This study investigated the factors that influence Ikigai among people aged 75 years and older using home medical and nursing care with home-visit rehabilitation.
Methods: This cross-sectional study involved 66 home-visit rehabilitation users aged 75 years or older who received home medical and nursing care at 2 home-care nursing stations. The following attributes were evaluated: Ikigai-9, life-space assessment (LSA), home-based LSA (Hb-LSA), Frenchay activities index (FAI), functional independence measure (FIM), self-efficacy for activities of daily living (SEADL), self-efficacy scale for going out among community-dwelling elderly (SEGE), and physical function. The correlation between Ikigai-9 scores and each assessment was examined. Multiple regression analysis was performed using the Ikigai-9 as the dependent variable and the correlated items as independent variables.
Results: The Hb-LSA, FAI, FIM, SEADL, and SEGE were correlated with Ikigai-9. Among the correlated items, the FAI was selected for multiple regression analysis.
Conclusion: Home-visit rehabilitation users aged 75 and over may be more likely to feel Ikigai if they have higher instrumental ADLs.
