Resumen

Lo objectivo es probar la asociación entre la depresión geriátrica y la calidad de vida de los adultos mayores en centros de cuidados a largo plazo en Brasil. Los resultados mostraron que hubo una correlación significativa entre cuatro de los seis domínios que se midieron em el cuestionario WHOQOL-OLD de aquellos que muestram sintomas y los que no. En conclusión, los participantes que tenían puntuaciones de calidad de vida más bajas informaron puntuaciones de depresión más altas. La atención de la salud mental debe abordarse cuidadosamente entre los adultos mayores institucionalizados en instalaciones a largo plazo.
