This study evaluated the effectiveness of different intervention programs in improving function among hospitalized older individuals using the Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA). A randomized controlled trial consisted of three groups: routine care, horticulture, and multicomponent activities (n = 32 each). Horticultural and multicomponent activity interventions showed beneficial effects on the CGA in hospitalized older individuals, particularly regarding cognitive function and quality-of-life. Additionally, horticultural activities significantly contributed to the perception of older adults' health status. We recommend to select older patients in geriatric wards with long-term hospitalization and adjust the frequency of activities or choose a single intervention program to provide long-term and effective intervention effects.
本研究采用综合老年评估（CGA）评估了不同干预方案对改善住院老年患者功能的效果。一项随机对照试验包括三组：常规护理、园艺和多组分活动（每组 32 人）。园艺和多组分活动干预对住院老年患者的 CGA 具有有益影响，特别是在认知功能和生活质量方面。此外，园艺活动对老年人健康状况的认知有显著影响。我们建议在老年病房中选择长期住院的老年患者，并调整活动频率或选择单一干预方案，以提供长期有效的干预效果。
