Abstract

Seven hundred and forty seven elderly people aged from 65 to 98 (209 male and 538 female) admitted to the Geriatric Health Service Facility were evaluated with pure-tone audiometry, Office of Population Censuses and Surveys (OPCS) personal care severity score, OPCS hearing severity score, Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE) and Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS). A single correlation study indicated that the hearing level significantly correlated with age, OPCS hearing severity score, MMSE total score and SDS total score. A multiple regression analysis showed that age, OPCS hearing severity score, and MMSE total score were significantly associated with the hearing level. We demonstrated here that the objective auditory function strongly correlated with the cognitive function measured by MMSE total score, suggesting that a regular audiological check-up and the early detection of the hearing impairment could contribute to the maintenance of the quality of life in the elderly.

日本老年人听力障碍的生理和心理相关因素。
采用纯音听力学、美国人口普查与调查办公室(OPCS)个人护理严重程度评分、OPCS听力严重程度评分、简易精神状态检查(MMSE)和抑郁自评量表(SDS)对747例65 ~ 98岁的老年人(男性209例,女性538例)进行评估。单项相关研究显示,听力水平与年龄、OPCS听力严重程度评分、MMSE总分、SDS总分显著相关。多元回归分析显示,年龄、OPCS听力严重程度评分、MMSE总分与听力水平显著相关。我们在这里证明客观听觉功能与MMSE总分测量的认知功能有很强的相关性,这表明定期听力学检查和早期发现听力障碍有助于维持老年人的生活质量。
