The Physical Resilience Instrument for Older Adults (PRIFOR) in Surgical Inpatients: Further Evidence for Its Factor Structure and Validity.
Background: The Physical Resilience Instrument for Older Adults (PRIFOR) is a questionnaire for assessing physical resilience in older adults suffering from acute health stressors. Prior psychometric evidence of the PRIFOR showed that it has good criterion-related validity, known-group validity, predictive validity, and internal consistency. However, it is unclear whether the PRIFOR can be replicated in older adults suffering after surgical treatment.
Objectives: This study aimed at evaluating whether the three-factor structure of the PRIFOR can be replicated in older adults suffering after surgical treatment. Moreover, the concurrent validity of the PRIFOR was examined using the association between the PRIFOR and measures of depression, cognition, activities of daily living, and frailty.
Design and setting: A longitudinal study was adopted in a tertiary-care medical center in Taiwan.
Participants: A total of 207 patients aged 65 years old and older who underwent surgery and if they were able to communicate independently.
Measurements: The PRIFOR, the 5-item Geriatric Depression Scale, the Short Portable Mental Status Questionnaire, the Katz Index of Independence in Activities of Daily Living and Clinical Frailty Scale were all assessed after surgery.
Results: The three-factor structure (positive thinking, cope and adjust lifestyle, and belief and hopeful mindset) was supported by the CFA results in the present sample. In addition, the PRIFOR showed good concurrent validity with depression (r = -0.470 to -0.542), cognition (r = 0.358 to 0.409), activities of daily living (r = 0.209 to 0.310), and frailty (r =-0.161 to -0.237).
Conclusion: The PRIFOR can be recommended to measure physical resilience in older adults suffering after surgical treatment. For the adequate estimation of older adults' level of physical resilience postoperatively and to guide the implementation of individualized interventions, it is important to provide appropriate care for older adults to recover after surgery.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Frailty & Aging is a peer-reviewed international journal aimed at presenting articles that are related to research in the area of aging and age-related (sub)clinical conditions. In particular, the journal publishes high-quality papers describing and discussing social, biological, and clinical features underlying the onset and development of frailty in older persons. The Journal of Frailty & Aging is composed by five different sections: - Biology of frailty and aging In this section, the journal presents reports from preclinical studies and experiences focused at identifying, describing, and understanding the subclinical pathophysiological mechanisms at the basis of frailty and aging. - Physical frailty and age-related body composition modifications Studies exploring the physical and functional components of frailty are contained in this section. Moreover, since body composition plays a major role in determining physical frailty and, at the same time, represents the most evident feature of the aging process, special attention is given to studies focused on sarcopenia and obesity at older age. - Neurosciences of frailty and aging The section presents results from studies exploring the cognitive and neurological aspects of frailty and age-related conditions. In particular, papers on neurodegenerative conditions of advanced age are welcomed. - Frailty and aging in clinical practice and public health This journal’s section is devoted at presenting studies on clinical issues of frailty and age-related conditions. This multidisciplinary section particularly welcomes reports from clinicians coming from different backgrounds and specialties dealing with the heterogeneous clinical manifestations of advanced age. Moreover, this part of the journal also contains reports on frailty- and age-related social and public health issues. - Clinical trials and therapeutics This final section contains all the manuscripts presenting data on (pharmacological and non-pharmacological) interventions aimed at preventing, delaying, or treating frailty and age-related conditions.The Journal of Frailty & Aging is a quarterly publication of original papers, review articles, case reports, controversies, letters to the Editor, and book reviews. Manuscripts will be evaluated by the editorial staff and, if suitable, by expert reviewers assigned by the editors. The journal particularly welcomes papers by researchers from different backgrounds and specialities who may want to share their views and experiences on the common themes of frailty and aging.The abstracting and indexing of the Journal of Frailty & Aging is covered by MEDLINE (approval by the National Library of Medicine in February 2016).
