ABSTRACT

Objective: To determine the prevalence of cognitive impairment and its association with social situation and health status in adults aged 60 or older, nursing home residents. Methods: Cross-sectional study in participants aged 60 or older, recruited between February and April 2015. Participants underwent a comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA), with which detailed data about sociodemographic, social situation and cognitive impairment was obtained. Results: We included 48 subjects; mean age was 73 years (SD= ±6), women accounted for 60%. The prevalence of cognitive impairment was 23%. The prevalence of bad social situation was 54%. After adjusted by age, sex, and literacy, the unadjusted logistic regression analysis showed a significant association between social situation and CI. Thus, the presence of bad social situation ups 13 times the probability of cognitive impairment. Conclusions: This study showed that the prevalence of bad social situation is higher in Mexican elders. These results suggest the importance of monitoring social situation as they seem to confer a negative impact on cognitive impairment of the elderly, and that social situation evaluation should be included in the geriatric assessment to prevent cognitive impairment.
