To assess the effect of family style mealtimes on quality of life, physical performance, and body weight of nursing home residents without dementia.
Cluster randomised trial.
Five Dutch nursing homes.
178 residents (mean age 77 years). Two wards in each home were randomised to intervention (95 participants) or control groups (83).
During six months the intervention group took their meals family style and the control group received the usual individual pre-plated service.
Quality of life (perceived safety; autonomy; and sensory, physical, and psychosocial functioning), gross and fine motor function, and body weight.
The difference in change between the groups was significant for overall quality of life (6.1 units, 95% confidence interval 2.1 to 10.3), fine motor function (1.8 units, 0.6 to 3.0), and body weight (1.5 kg, 0.6 to 2.4).
Family style mealtimes maintain quality of life, physical performance, and body weight of nursing home residents without dementia.
Clinical trials NCT00114582.
评估家庭式用餐时间对无痴呆症养老院居民生活质量、身体机能和体重的影响。
整群随机试验。
五家荷兰养老院。
178名居民(平均年龄77岁)。每家养老院的两个病房被随机分为干预组(95名参与者)或对照组(83名)。
在六个月的时间里,干预组采用家庭式用餐,对照组接受常规的个人分餐服务。
生活质量(感知安全、自主性以及感官、身体和心理社会功能)、粗大和精细运动功能以及体重。
两组之间在总体生活质量(6.1分,95%置信区间2.1至10.3)、精细运动功能(1.8分,0.6至3.0)和体重(1.5千克,0.6至2,4)方面的变化差异具有统计学意义。
家庭式用餐时间可维持无痴呆症养老院居民的生活质量、身体机能和体重。
临床试验NCT00114582。
