- aggregation title "Hospitalizations of nursing home residents with dementia in the last month of life: Results from a nationwide survey".
- aggregation abstract "Background: Hospitalizations of nursing home residents with dementia may not be uncommon. However, evidence from epidemiological studies outside the United States and knowledge about the circumstances of hospitalizations are lacking. Aim: To examine the proportion of nursing home residents with dementia hospitalized in the last month of life and factors associated with hospitalization. Design: The design is stratified cluster sampling survey. Nurses retrospectively registered demographic and dementia-related information about deceased residents with dementia. This included information about hospitalizations, persons involved in hospitalization decisions and type and content of information transferred when hospitalized. Setting/participants: Nursing home residents dying with dementia in Belgium (Flanders) in 2010. Results: In the final month of life, 19.5% of nursing home residents dying with dementia (N = 198) were hospitalized, including 4.6% admitted to an intensive care unit. For 12.2% of residents dying with dementia, a do-not-hospitalize advance directive was present, for 57.0%, a do-not-hospitalize general physician-order. Residents without a do-not-hospitalize general physician-order were more likely of being hospitalized (adjusted odds ratio: 3.4; 95% confidence interval: 1.3-8.7). None of the hospitalizations occurred at the request of the resident; 37% were at the request of relatives; curative or life-prolonging treatments were the most frequent reasons given. Information about the resident's nursing care or medical treatment was transferred in almost all hospitalizations, information about wishes and preferences for future care in 19%. Conclusion: Hospitalization in Belgian nursing home residents with dementia in the last month of life was common. Documentation of do-not-hospitalize physician-orders in the resident's medical files may prevent hospitalizations.".
