Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The purpose of this study is to describe longitudinal changes in home-based life-space, activities of daily living, physical function, confidence in avoiding falls, life satisfaction, patient global impression of change, and falls among users of home-visit rehabilitation at our institution.

The primary outcome is the change in home-based life-space assessed by the Home-based Life-Space Assessment, Hb-LSA, from baseline to 6 months. We will also explore associations between changes in Hb-LSA and Barthel Index, grip strength, Functional Reach Test, single-item confidence in avoiding falls, single-item life satisfaction, Patient Global Impression of Change, and falls.

This prospective practice-based registry aims to provide fundamental data for improving assessment systems, goal setting, fall prevention, quality improvement of home-visit rehabilitation services, and future multicenter studies.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

Change in the Home-based Life-Space Assessment, Hb-LSA, from baseline to 6 months.

The primary analysis will estimate longitudinal changes in Hb-LSA using repeated measurements at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months with a linear mixed-effects model.

Key secondary outcomes

Change in Hb-LSA from baseline to 12 months
Change in Barthel Index at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months
Change in grip strength at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months
Change in Functional Reach Test at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months
Change in single-item confidence in avoiding falls assessed using a 0-10 Numerical Rating Scale at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months
Change in single-item life satisfaction assessed using a 0-10 Numerical Rating Scale at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months
Patient Global Impression of Change at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months
Number of falls, proportion of fallers, proportion of recurrent fallers, and fall rate, falls per person-year, during 12 months
Injurious falls, medically attended falls, and fall-related hospitalizations during 12 months
All-cause hospitalizations, institutionalization, death, and termination of home-visit rehabilitation during 12 months

Other related information

This is a single-center prospective longitudinal observational registry study of users of home-visit rehabilitation. The content, frequency, and duration of rehabilitation will not be assigned or modified for research purposes. Assessment data obtained under usual practice will be recorded prospectively.

Participants are community-dwelling users of home-visit rehabilitation at the study institution, including current users and new users during the study period. Data will not be used if the participant or a proxy refuses data use through the opt-out procedure.

Assessments will be conducted at baseline, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. The primary outcome is change in Hb-LSA from baseline to 6 months. Secondary outcomes include Hb-LSA up to 12 months, Barthel Index, grip strength, Functional Reach Test, confidence in avoiding falls, life satisfaction, Patient Global Impression of Change, falls, fallers, injurious falls, medically attended falls, hospitalization, institutionalization, death, and termination of home-visit rehabilitation.

The primary analysis will estimate longitudinal change in Hb-LSA using a linear mixed-effects model. Falls will be recorded prospectively as much as possible using fall calendars and confirmation during home visits.
