Abstract

Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the correlates of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in community-dwelling older adults in Guadeloupe. Methods: We used the Karukera Study of Aging-Drugs Storage (KASADS), an observational, cross-sectional study on community-dwelling older people living in Guadeloupe. A visual analogue scale ranging from 0 to 100 was used to assess HRQoL. Results: The study sample consisted of 115 patients aged 65 years or older; 67.8% were women. Participants were 76 (±7.8) years old with a mean HRQoL of 66.2 (±20.3). The correlates of HRQoL were complaints of pain ( p < 0.001) and IADL dependency ( p = 0.030) after adjustment. We found no significant interactions between HRQoL and other variables such as marital status, socio-educational level and cognitive decline. Conclusions: Pain and IADL dependency were independently associated with lower HRQoL in community-dwelling older people in Guadeloupe.
